Inqwaba yosaziwayo abasanda kuphumela obala ngezinsolo ezibhekiswe kuHarvey Weinstein bakhombise ukuthi ukuhlukunyezwa ngokocansi nokuhlaselwa kuxhaphake kangakanani eHollywood. Kepha imiphumela yocwaningo lwakamuva lwe-BBC iqinisekisa ukuthi lezi zinkinga zisabalele ngaphandle kwemboni yezokuzijabulisa. I-BBC yenza inhlolokhono kubantu abangu-2,031, kanti abesifazane abangaphezu kwengxenye (amaphesenti angu-53) bathi bake bahlukunyezwa ngokobulili emsebenzini noma esikoleni. Kwabesifazane abathi bake bahlukunyezwa ngokocansi, abangamaphesenti ayishumi bathi bake banukubezwa ngokocansi.

Nakuba kungenzeka ukuthi ucwaningo lwenziwa eBrithani, akubonakali njengokuncane ukucabanga ukuthi bekungaba khona okutholakele okufanayo ukube abesifazane baseMelika bahlolwe. Phela, kunoma ubani ongabaza ubukhulu benkinga, ukuskrola kokuthunyelwe okubonakala kungapheli kwe-#MeToo kusula izinto ngokushesha. Isungulwe ngokusemthethweni eminyakeni eyi-10 eyedlule ukuze inikeze "amandla ngozwela" kwabasinde ekunukubezweni ngokocansi, ukuhlaselwa, ukuxhashazwa, nokuhlukunyezwa, inhlangano ye-Me Too isithole umfutho omangalisayo ngemuva kwehlazo likaHarvey Weinstein.

Esikhathini esingaphezu kwesonto eledlule, umlingisi u-Alyssa Milano ucele abesifazane ukuthi basebenzise i-hashtag ukuhlanganyela izindaba zabo, futhi muva nje kube ne-1.7 izigidi ama-tweets. Osaziwayo okubalwa kubo uLady Gaga, uGabrielle Union, kanye nabesifazane abajwayelekile bakwaDebra Messing baqhumise i-hashtag besabelana ngama-akhawunti abo abuhlungu, kusuka ekuhlukunyezweni ngokocansi ngenkathi behamba nje emgwaqweni beya ekuhlaselweni ngocansi okugcwele.

Ucwaningo lwe-BBC luveze ukuthi abesifazane abaningi bazigcina kubo lezi zigameko; Amaphesenti angama-63 abesifazane abathi bake bahlukunyezwa ngokocansi bathi bakhethe ukungabikeli muntu. Futhi-ke, abesifazane akuzona kuphela izisulu. Amaphesenti angama-20 amadoda ahlolwe abhekana nokuhlukunyezwa ngokocansi noma izenzo zokuhlukunyezwa ngokocansi emsebenzini noma esifundweni-futhi mancane amathuba okuthi akubike.

Njengoba inhlangano ye- # MeToo iqhubeka nokukhuthaza abesilisa nabesifazane ngokufanayo ukuthi babelane ngezindaba zabo, kugcizelelwa ukuthi bangaki abantu abathintekayo ekuhlukunyezweni ngokocansi nokuhlukunyezwa, singathemba nje ukuthi ushintsho lwangempela selusondele. Esikudingayo manje, kunangaphambili, ukuthi izinkampani nezikole zisukume zibeke izinyathelo ezingaguqula izibalo esikhundleni sokuzenza zibe zimbi kakhulu.
