"I said to my class, ‘Explain this girl to me. She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?’ Nobody had an answer."

Said movie producer producer Carol Baum, quoted in "Sydney Sweeney calls BS on Hollywood’s ‘women empowering other women’ movement: ‘None of it’s happening’" (NY Post).

Sweeney's response: "It’s very disheartening to see women tear other women down.... This entire industry, all people say is 'Women empowering other women.' None of it’s happening.... All of it is fake and a front for all the other shit that they say behind everyone’s back.... I’ve read that our entire lives, we were raised — and it’s a generational problem — to believe only one woman can be at the top. There’s one woman who can get the man. There’s one woman who can be, I don’t know, anything. So then all the others feel like they have to fight each other or take that one woman down instead of being like, Let’s all lift each other up."
