Paul Mescal tell of clash with female fan who groped him during selfie

The only reason anybody is hyped about this guy is because he showed his dick on Netflix or something, right? Ordinary Penis... Regular People... Regularity.. something like that. I mean he looks short and pale. Where's the fire?

Find your own Oscar campaign lane, dude!

He's not short, but he's very talented and a nice body. Try watching his work before posting something stupid.

Groped sounds like someone grabbed your crotch/cock not your ass.

"Yet another reason to hate fraus. They can get away with shit like that!"

By that measure, R3, there'd be even fewer posts on DL than at present. Sorry I triggered you.

Did she feel his taint though?

I don’t get this guy. He’s got the face of an old lady.

Don’t know who he is but he has pretty eyes.

Didn't Faith Hill rightfully yell at some female fan who put her hands on Tim McGraw, on his crotch actually, during a concert? Some of these fans are nuts.

Goddamnit Angie.

Average cock.

R8 is correct.

Old lady witch face.

Oh big whoop ! if I had a nickle for every time someone grabbed my ass or my crotch in a gay bar Id be a fucking Rockerfeller. I agree he looks way older than his age. That "good touch/bad touch" shit ruined a generation of people.

If I was a celeb I wouldn't have anything to do with fans. Zero. Zilch.

That's rape! There's only one solution: go into hiding for ten years and eat everything you want.

[quote]but it was really not OK.

*eyeroll*

I was going fer the cranberries!

Is there a difference between this guy and Daniel Radcliffe?

Guys, I think we've already been told not to post stupid things. He's hung!

R19, perhaps half an inch or so.

Female fan = Kevin Sessums

Brendan Fraser will be proud for him speaking out.

He should be so lucky

Irishface.

Don’t tell me he’s playing Stanley?

Tennessee wouldn’t approve of such frau behavior from a leading man.

She was trying to cover the brown stain.

I wonder what is r24, a touch-starved heterosexual incel or one of those gendercrit radfems who thinks no woman has ever done anything wrong?

I was raped.

Horny Irish fangirls know where to aim their thirsty hands. There's nothing much to grab on the front of an Irish hunk.

I was molested.

Oi loik Shamrock groin.

Someone touched my special precious no no and I will never ever recover.

He must have felt really scared.

You look at everything all over the world today and how men are dressing and what they are asking by just presenting themselves the way they do. What are they asking for? Trouble.

Paul Mescal says he’s been groped by “creepy” fans, shown naked photos of himself on their phones:

[quote]He went on to say that the sudden fame afforded him by Normal People took some getting used to.

[quote]“Like I had this woman who said she had a naked picture of me, a screenshot from the show, as the wallpaper on her phone. And it was mad to me — like, she wasn’t doing it to be incendiary, I think she was genuinely trying to tell me she was a big fan but it just felt very weird. I didn’t like it.”

[quote]“When Normal People came out, the attention was a bit affronting. It was like, ‘This is f*cking crazy.’ Now I’m a bit more comfortable with it. I realized, like, this can consume me and I can be pissed off with every person who has a naked picture of me stashed somewhere or I can just let it go. It’s the internet.”

[quote]He also notes that female stars tend to have things much worse when it comes to unwanted attention.

Darlings, the world is full of men with average dicks, but few have Mescal's hot bod.

If asked, Yum!

He has bedroom eyes, and its rare to see bedroom eyes in blue. They are blue but they are friendly and warm.

R33 is Brendan Fraser

He has nice thighs. The rest is pretty average and I don’t get what the fuck is going in with his hair most of the time.

It’s like marry/date someone like Posh Spice already who is going to sort out your grooming already.

R14, were they male or female?

R38, prey eyes. Not hunter, not sexy.

His complaints sound like a cross between humble bragging and virtue signaling -- like he's excited about all of the attention but does not want to come across as a lech or something and so is trying too hard to be 'sensitive' or whatever.

He's apparently never been to a gay bar.

Why are you guys talking about gay bars? Gay men don’t give a fuck about being groped. It’s fair game.

It’s not fair game among heterosexuals. Rape and sexual assault are 2 different definitions based on their gender. If this was a woman saying this, there would be an outpouring of sympathy.

r44 or he has.

is there a video of the incident?

would need to hear "behand me, ye soiled frau" to confirm.

[quote] Is there a difference between this guy and Daniel Radcliffe?

If the theme music to the Lucky Charms commercial plays, Paul will do a little jig and proclaim he is "magically delicious."

Dataloungers don't know any straight men, don't they? They truly think straight men lust after every single woman, that all straight men -- even celebrities -- ache for the touch of a woman, any woman, like prisoners ache the sweet breath of freedom. It's a delightful reversal of what straight people think of us, but it's still wrong. Straight men turn women down all the time.

Didn't someone come up to Helen Mirren with a nude photo of hers from some movie she did (she used to feature a lot of nudity), and she just tore it up? That's actually a reasonable reaction, since she did those nude scenes in context of story and not as a Playboy centerfold. It probably wouldn't be right to approach a Playboy -- or Playgirl -- model with a nude photo either, unless it was like a x-rated Comic Con for faux-or-real porn magazines. Mescal and Mirren stripped for their art! Before someone else adds it --- Dammit!)

There are a tons of straight men who are desperate for basically any woman r48. But yes, there is the other class of straight men who have no problems attracting girls and definitely will be picky. The "chads" as the incel guys call them.

What a little snowflake! If he can't handle a little pat on the ass from an excited fan, perhaps he should get a new job in a bank or something. These celebs go around thirsting for fame and then acting Iike little pussy victims, virtue signalling for awards.

Nah, if women are going to be so sanctimonious about this subject, they need to hear an earful, too. Women get handsy with men all the time, they just don't consider it harassment. For them everyone thinks they're being cute, or that all men are grateful for that.

Well I most certainly would and risk his ire!

Did she grope, grab or cup?

[quote] Why are you guys talking about gay bars? Gay men don’t give a fuck about being groped. It’s fair game.

That's not always true--I have heard other guys tell someone to get their hands off them. But then they move on from that, and don't act wounded and damaged.

It's true that this did not happen to Mescal in a pick-up bar, but all he should have done is said to the woman, "Please don't touch me there--it's inappropriate," and that would have been that. I am tried of everyone--especially great big guys like him--acting as if they're helpless.

He looks like a bland version of Hugh Grant, which is telling because Hugh Grant is as interesting as porridge.

This guy used to be a homophobic bully in high school, so I’m shedding any tears for him.

This is the same guy who complained about being objectified as a sex symbol and how he hates it. Why the fuck did you decide to become a movie actor? If you don't want to be objectified, stay your ass in the theater.

He even had his people scrub certain photos of himself from websites as he hated how people were drooling over the photo shoot. He's a weirdo.

[quote] Is there a difference between this guy and Daniel Radcliffe?

One is circumcised and the other is not.

He's always whinging about his fans.

The "homophobic bully" accusation is just another piece of Reddit bullshit.

What was he wearing though? Is it the way he presented himself? Was he asking for it?

Paul Mescal has meaty ass and thighs, I'd grab him too. ;-)

Try a link...Paul's meaty ass and thighs...

What kind of pig gets their grubby hands all over someone without their consent? Punch and delete that cunt. No matter if the person is a celebrity or not. Have some fucking respect.

Sturdy looking fella.

What are you on about, R55?

What you said he should say:

[quote]Please don't touch me there--it's inappropriate

What he said:

[quote]What’re you doing? Take your hand off my ass.

And that was after he tried to move away from her and her hand stayed on his ass.

Some people really do think they’re entitled to celebrities’, athletes’, musicians’ attention and will take advantage of the celeb trying to remain composed in public in order to pull some shit like this, lest they get roasted on social media for not being ‘amenable’.

R3 the Paul stans are here.

I watched him in Normal People and he was okay. I thought the series itself was meh and was very new adulty. Everyone kept going on about his and Daisy’s (his co-star) chemistry but I could tell they were acting. I didn’t think they had any real chemistry at all. And Paul’s performance was okay. I’m not getting this guys hype. But I’m sure his psycho loser stans will educate me on Paul’s greatness.

Also, he’s constantly doing interviews about awful fan experiences.

Why would he talk about this? What a jerk. Why doesn't he learn to be a gentleman?

R69 Yeah, an ass grab means she likes you.

Yeah, right, the whore poses for pics with strangers and then pretends he was assaulted. Don't act like a whore and you won't be treated like one.

The fucking sense of self-righteous entitlement is hilarious.

But was it a grab grab?

Incidentally, it was mentioned above that he is currently 'Stanley Kowalski' in STREETCAR in London. Has anyone seen it? How is he?

Wait until he gets on the set of Gladiator 2 and has to Ridley Scott's biding.

Wait, he’s only 27?!? He’s the same age as Timothee Chaturbate but looks like he could be his father. Taylor Swift is 7 years older than him.

Were those rumors that he was a homophonic bully in grade school ever substantiated?

That’s all I think about when I see him.

This is actually insulting and damaging to women who are victims of inappropriate touching. Women are actually in danger when a man gropes them. He is a weak piece of shit.

If women are so frail, then they're not equal to men. Let their fathers and husbands see after them instead of pretending that women can take care of themselves like men do.

[quote] This is actually insulting and damaging to women who are victims of inappropriate touching. Women are actually in danger when a man gropes them. He is a weak piece of shit.

Wow. So women can't be a danger to men? How terribly outdated of you.

[quote] So women can't be a danger to men?

Not sexually.

[quote] So women can't be a danger to men?

[quote] Not sexually.

Oh, rrrrrrrreally?

Was the fan ugly?

Is he a homosexualist?

R76 I think they were debunked. The story got certain key facts wrong apparently.

[quote]Gay men don’t give a fuck about being groped. It’s fair game

No r45. This is not true, I assure you many gay men absolutely do care and bitch about you to their friends the rest of the night because your creepy ass grabbed them out of the blue

R81 a woman grabbing a stranger's butt outside a stage door is not the same thing as a resentful wife cutting off her husband's penis as he sleeps.

In general, men are taller/bigger/stronger/faster than women and will almost always have the upper hand during a physical confrontation.

What the woman did was wrong...that's plain and simple. If you have ever been the object of unwanted attention, it's creepy.

Good for him for calling the woman out.

Even in a gay bar, grabbing some guy's arse or crotch without consent is wrong.

What about my taint?!

I'm a 5'4 tall and weigh less than 117 pounds -- I'm smaller than most American women. I'd love to know if r86 and other radfems who love infantilizing predatory women would have my back if I grabbed the tetas of a 180 pounds land whale.

Oh for God’s sake, who hasn’t groped a movie star’s ass?

R84 - stop lying

Wait a few decades, Mescal. No one will want to grab your ass. You'll be living in a different reality.

[quote] I don’t get this guy. He’s got the face of an old lady.

Go back to drooling over prepubescent rat boys like Timothee.

If the worst thing he can complain about is an fan putting her hand on her ass while taking a photo, then he has it really good. I would get more than that at any typical visit to any of the NYC bars and clubs.

R89 That is why I said "in general" the average man is bigger/taller/stronger/faster than the average woman.

You are obviously the exception.

And I'm not a radial feminist, who can't decide whether women are strong and independent or perpetual victims of men.

I'm a realist who notices the biological and emotional differences between men and women.

In short, women are more wont to be scandalized and traumatized if groped by a stranger, but men generally don't care if a woman touches them. In fact, they tend to welcome it.

Unless they are virtue signaling.

I'm talking specifically about heteros in my post lest there be any confusion.

He either complained for her to remove her hand from his fartbox because she was unattractive or he needed to blow a ripper!

r95 You didn't answer my question. What if I, or some other small men, were to grope a bigger woman -- would you honestly be telling me you'd be defending me? The mere fact that you skipped the answer tells me all I need to know. Funny how you whine about virtue signalling, as if you weren't the biggest fucking white knight defending female pervs just because they're female.

As I said above, Dataloungers don't seem like they know any straight men, and try to decipher them using simple-minded stereotypes. Durrrrr, all men want to be groped by females, hurrr, male celebs are actually starved of female attention! No, they don't and aren't. Go meet some actual people, retard.

[quote]I'd love to know if [R86] and other radfems who love infantilizing predatory women would have my back if I grabbed the tetas of a 180 pounds land whale.

[quote][R95] You didn't answer my question. What if I, or some other small men, were to grope a bigger woman -- would you honestly be telling me you'd be defending me?

R89/R98 I don't understand your question(s)? Would I defend you from what?

[quote] [R89] That is why I said "in general" the average man is bigger/taller/stronger/faster than the average woman.

Not necessarily. Some women are just naturally bigger, stronger, faster, like Serena Williams, Lia Thomas, Rhonda Roussey, She-Hulk.

I was in a gay club a few years ago and the resident drag queen actually took down my trousers and got my dick out in front of a group of people. I guess it was flattery, as “she” was all over me, but I was still quietly mortified at the same time. It hardly caused PTSD though, I just laughed it off and had another drink.

"Even in a gay bar, grabbing some guy's arse or crotch without consent is wrong. "

It's wrong, but there comes a day when ugly trolls won't even make unwanted advances at you, and you'll miss it!

What can I say, r101? You're a hottie!

R101 were you wearing undercrackers? What is your pink pinga like?

R100 do you understand the meaning of "in general"?

Those women are exceptions.

Like you said, "some."

R98, you need to get out more. Lack of female attention is a much bigger problem for straight men than women groping them. Most single straight men rarely get laid.

R89, if you think "predatory women" are a problem then you should talk to some straight men. There are tons of incels out there who wish women would grope them

None of you really think "predatory women" are a problem. It's why you right-wing go on and on about men using the women's restrooms or locker rooms but don't care about women in the men's room.

[quote]Lack of female attention is a much bigger problem for straight men than women groping them. Most single straight men rarely get laid.

Imagine thinking this is Paul Mescal's situation. Most women are starfuckers -- they get moist when they smell money or fame. There absolutely are men who dislike unexpected female attention, and this includes even nonfamous men. It's incredible how you can come to me with this "get out more" talk when it's so obvious you only know straight men via Twitter gender discourse and lazy stereotypes.

That story sounds made up r101.

A drag queen that would just pull out the dick of a random audience member that was brought on stage is not a drag queen that would keep getting bookings. And I have been to more drag shows here in NY than I could possibly count.

Huurrr, woman predators ain't a problem, durr, incels, no problems, incels, derpity derp

I'm actually flabbergasted by how debate level has dropped on Datalounge. People on here don't argue based on actual experience or well thought out arguments -- they argue now based platitudes and cliches. Now all men secretly want to be sexually harassed, no woman has ever posed a threat to a man, incels this, incels that, as if Dataloungers were now just a bunch of shut-ins who don't know any real people, just stereotypes and buzzwords they apprehend on social media. FFS.

I was groped too.

R111 that's a 24-year-old woman vs. a 13-year-old boy.

I'm not saying that women are not capable of being sexual predators, especially toward young boys, but they generally pose no physical threat to men, who, as I've stated, tend to be taller, bigger, stronger, and/or faster.

Especially if both men and women are the same age and size.

The real question [r89] is who’d want to grope your shrimpy ass?

[quote]A drag queen that would just pull out the dick of a random audience member that was brought on stage is not a drag queen that would keep getting bookings.

Reading is fundamental. He never said any of those things.

R110 it’s not made up at all. I’d have no reason to make up such a tale. It wasn’t on stage thankfully. The show was long over and we were part of a group of people gathered chatting, and the topic was cock. This particular drag queen was about as forward as you get and apparently had no qualms and actually reaching into trousers or shorts. Still, I was totally unprepared for it.

R110 The Drag Queen (perp) violated him off-stage infront of a select group of men. No doubt the perp had been selecting "their" mark for some time by staking out the communal urinals to verify sizemeat before the attack.

Presumably the victim wasn't wearing any panties and this made the exposure easier, yet no less traumatising.

r114 That doesn't matter. The fact that a man is physically stronger doesn't mean that being groped when they're not expecting isn't an upsetting experience. As a tween, I had my someone squeeze his penis against my ass and year later I was groped. Both times at school. At age 17, someone pressed his dick against my shoulder in the bus. And I felt humiliated each time, even though the groper was a girl and the person who did that to me in the bus was a younger teen. No, I wasn't scared that any of these people would rape me, since all incidents happened in a public space, but so what? Many men who grope women don't escalate to rape, either, especially if they're doing so in a public space like this female pervert from Mescal's story did.

And by the way, even though you speak so much about men being capable of confronting women, I bet you would be screaming bloody murder had Mescal touched her in any way to teach her a lesson. There's no way that someone who's splitting hairs about a mere scold would be OK if he had gotten physical.

And nobody who's here bashing him over this incident, would be behaving the same if, instead of a woman, this were some short skinny twink who was much smaller than Mescal. This is because none of this is about getting a sense of proportion, it's about vilifying men and not allowing that women ever be portrayed as aggressors.

That's how radfems behave when they're in the majority. They hold double standards. I've even seen transphobic feminists, the kind that screams bloody murder about the danger that trans women pose to cis women, argue that gay men who are manipulated into sex by FTMs can't complain about their situations -- they're "not the same" as lesbians manipulated by MTFs.

And this is obviously the perspective you people are coming from.

I wish some HOT 🥵 Guy would grope me.

Mescal is an annoying twit. This sounds like when Glenn Close tried to get in on the #metoo movement by retelling how a Director once put his hand on her thigh.

R98 Do you want to grope a larger woman? Maybe you should--it might make you less hostile and rude.

Ah I see r117. That's more believable than what I was imagining.

"Stop! You're touching my special area!"

It's never the hotties who are groping strangers r120, always the desperate guys . Hotties are friends with other hotties and they will freely touch each other.

R11 Ah yes, and if you look hard enough you can find an example of a chihuahua killing a pit bull, but statistically it's not really what we need to worry about, is it?

[quote] Were those rumors that he was a homophonic bully in grade school ever substantiated?

r76 Yeah, his voice was completely homophonic. It always flowed in perfect rhythm.

Who's the stupid bitch at R95?
