Let's keep it 1000, if put into the exact same position, how many men AREN'T taking advantage in the same way Weinstein did?
I understand the sentiment you're going for, but I think you've got to shift the context a little so it veers away from "sexual harassment" and more into "to the victor go the spoils".
If I was in his position would I "take advantage"? No.
Not in the way he did.
There's a difference between:
- Being a powerful executive/actor/producer and walking into a place and leaving with 5 women who wanna fukk you because of who you are or
- Being at an event and having someone way hotter, way more famous than you hit on you, you smash, then the next morning you're thinking "she probably did that because she thinks I'll give her the part/a job"
and
- Standing in a hotel hallway, opening your bathrobe and jerking off in front of a journalist who doesn't wanna be there, or
- Setting up a meeting to discuss a script and switching the location from the restaurant to your room, opening the door naked and asking her if she wants to watch you shower.
He wasn't out here Leo style, scooping up chicks out of his league on some billionaire playboy shyt, livin' the life, he was trying to get reluctant women whose livelihoods depended on him (
subordinates) to do weird, creepy shyt. Most of the cases in the article and that have come out since were based on women who already either worked for him or had been cast.
So to answer your question again, no, I'm not taking advantage "in the same way Weinstein did".
