a chat show host laughs
as Eddie Redmayne explains how
he was shown to use a mobile phone for self-defence.
Another male guest makes fun of the tactic
and four men are laughing at the idea.
"Who thinks about using their phone when threatened?"
asks entitled white man, Paul Mescal, and laughs.
Saoirse Ronan, overshadowed, talked over,
waits for a space to speak, and says
"Women have to think about that all the time."
Silence.
