Everyone knows that society is generally male-dominated and for decades it has been the same. Though things changed with the passage of time and women started showing their power excelling in all fields, they are often subjected to various insults by the male chauvinists.
Women face the same problems and oppressions in all professions and in film and glamor field where the stars, filmmakers, and producers view them as a glamor doll, this oppression is more. They consider heroines as objectifying items and irrespective of female-oriented films or stars mouthing powerful dialogues on respecting women, fans, and those in the industry treat heroines as objectifying objects.
So when heroines share their views frankly and confess that they are unaware of few stars, their fans get angry and threaten them with dire consequences. They issue rape threats, gang bang threats, brand them as a wh**e, b**ch, pro***tute, and whatnot. What surprises all at that time not a single star come out in support of them and they silently instead support their fans. They fear the loss of their fan base will erode the performance of their films.
Similarly, other heroines who give lectures on women empowerment and take on netizens who troll them, maintain a stoic silence. This because if they support the affected heroine, they may lose the golden opportunities and projects opposite top stars. All the fans of top stars behave in the same manner. But when it involves fans of a particular star, other heroes’ fans pose as though they are saints. Unless until heroines stand in unison and take them down, things will not change and fans of stars issue rape and death threats and stars silently support them.
