So to you, a woman draping themselves naked over you, whispering all sorts of things into your ear, is not leading someone on? Seriously? I mean, seriously? Don't forget she never said no to Mike at all, she only wanted nothing from him
after she'd gotten cozy with Lorenzo and it had clicked he was actually a very wealthy man.

Which is basically what Mike thought. Now like I said before, im not directly comparing the two, Im merely pointing out the link in thought process (which is clear) If that offends you then to bad Im afraid. Im not using it as point scoring, I genuinely feel this series has shown our society is just as backward and sexist as it always has been, women judged totally differently from men still and this inherent imbalance in society is the same reason so few rape cases end in conviction.

They are not in any way similar. One is a crime, a very serious one. A crime that is only carried out by the most horrible dregs of our society. The other is a play made by an incredibly good looking woman to a wealthy man (something she has plenty of previous for) and he committed no crime. Did nothing wrong. She said no (after starting up the showmance with Lorenzo) and he did nothing. He was gutted but nothing more. They are not similar in any way, and it is not a similar thought process for any decent human being. Maybe for the scum who actually commit these crimes.

who leads men on and is immoral. The idea that women are somehow to blame for mens behaviour... and its bulls**t

She does lead men on. Simple as that. She takes advantage of the stupidity, and in some cases, loneliness, of men to get what she wants. She's very bloody good at it too. She's well equipped for it physically and mentally. There are men out there who do it to women too. It's not some anomaly that is only present in women.
