The pattern commenced after performer Alyssa Milano took to Twitter and posted a note while expressing “If you have been sexually harassed or attacked write ‘me too’ as an answer to this tweet.” Me too. It all started when the famous sceleb Alyssa Milano accused Harvey Weinstein of Raping her.
Men and women who have been sexually ambushed or irritated are tweeting two capable words – “Me too” trying to indicate how far reaching the manhandle truly is. On Sunday, American performing artist Alyssa Milano tweeted a short message asking survivors to tweet ‘Me Too’ to feature the “magnitude of the issue.” Within hours, the hashtag #MeToo moved toward becoming the top trend on Twitter.

Two straightforward words turned into a mobilizing cry on Twitter to remain against inappropriate behavior and attack. “Me too.”
Online networking was overflowed with messages Sunday, for the most part from women, who labeled their profiles to demonstrate that they have been sexually hassled or attacked.
In a tweet referring to an anonymous companion, the previous ‘Enchanted’ star expressed: “If all the women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted wrote ‘Me too.’ as a status, we might give people a sense of the magnitude of the problem.”
Milano’s tweet has so far had 30,000 reactions, a large portion of which read “Me as well.” Anna Paquin, Debra Messing and Laura Dreyfuss were among prominent women to resound the words.
The screengrab has been shared on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter with thousands rehashing the two words. The immense reaction demonstrates the inescapability of rape and badgering of women around the globe.
The crusade was propelled following the stunning Weinstein assertions, with various ladies guaranteeing that the producer either assaulted, sexually harassed or attacked them. Weinstein has precluded all allegations from claiming nonconsensual sex.

Me too.

And I was blamed for it.
I was told not to talk about it.
I was told that it wasn't that bad.
I was told to get over it.— Najwa Zebian (@najwazebian) October 16, 2017
To every man "shocked" by all of us posting #MeToo –
We've been telling you for years.
You didn't want to listen.Do you hear us now?

Men,
Don't say you have a mother, a sister, a daughter…
Say you have a father, a brother, a son who can do better.
We all can.#MeToo
