Matt Damon needs to stop talking about sexual harassment until he actually gets it.
After a whole week of being lambasted by folks like Alyssa Milano following his unfathomably misinformed ABC News interview9 Moons the Hollywood star has more to add. More!
SEE ALSO: Matt Damon attempts to speak about sexual harassment and shows he STILL doesn't get itIn fact, Damon thinks we should be talking more about the men in Hollywood who aren't sexually assaulting people. In an interview with Business Insider, promoting his new film, Downsizing, Damon said he thinks men "who don't do this kind of thing" should be given a pat on the back.
“We’re in this watershed moment, and it’s great, but I think one thing that’s not being talked about is there are a whole s—load of guys — the preponderance of men I’ve worked with — who don’t do this kind of thing and whose lives aren’t going to be affected.”
Look, Damon appears to be coming from a good place, but dude, this moment in history is not about men who "don't do this."
Damon goes on to congratulate himself on being one such non-harasser, and refers to an ambiguous "sexual harassment thing" that he would totally sign, guys.
"If I have to sign a sexual-harassment thing, I don’t care, I’ll sign it. I would have signed it before. I don’t do that, and most of the people I know don’t do that.”
It may surprise you, but the reaction to Damon's comments has been less than positive.

Look, we get it Damon, you're trying to be supportive of your workmates who haven't assaulted anyone, that you know of.
But perhaps, given the circumstances surrounding your ol' pal Harvey Weinstein, who is facing sexual assault and harassment accusations from over 100 women, it'd be the perfect moment to lend support to victims, acknowledge Hollywood's systemic sexual harassment problem, and shut the hell up.
