Protect & care against harm
If anyone tries to act the scandalized by the recent revelations about certain Hollywood figures being frequent molesters, here's a twist for your mind: Actually Wes Craven already said everything about this in Scream 3 a long time ago. Go watch that movie and reconsider the stories you're hearing now

People are just like... little kids who make themselves dependent on someone, and when this someone doesn't treat them well, they cry out loud how much of an asshole he is. While completely ignoring that they're adults themselves and they're also responsible for taking care of keeping harm away from them - not even to say, they're also capable in physical and mental condition to do so (compared to kids who're always subject to the "I'm so small, adults are so big"-twist).
You know... Like "evil is not supposed to happen", but it's not present only in the back of their minds that it CAN happen because that's a fact of life.
And when they're aware of it, then they only habor the self-evidence that everyone must support them in their opinion that the other part, the abusing part, must be mercilessly punished.
Like - they're not aware of it in the tiniest bit that they also must take care themselves which situations they expose themselves to, that they have to make sure they don't run like straight into it.
When they run straight into it, then there's only blaming the other part for what he's done, never a word about "did I maybe act too naively myself?".
I feel like it's not right to spread this like it's a self-evidence. That you can blame anyone at any time for something where you should have been careful yourself ALSO.
I feel like that helps spreading this child-like mentality, as well as keeping it up in fully grown adults.
