And the thing is, Hollywood is still run by old, rich white men so she just went after the people who gave her the award which is a huge mistake. Remember when Brando did that and killed his career? I cringed when I heard her speech because I thought "well, she got a comeback and then killed her career all in the span of a couple of minutes."

She may not donate millions of dollars to the third world but she does donate a great deal of time and hard work bringing ecological sanitation to developing countries.

You need a dose of reality. Women seldom make the same money for the same work as men do, and in the current job environment, Ms. Everywoman can't say or do a damned thing about it without risking her job. It's the Patricia Arquettes who can risk speaking and who get listened to - after all, she's made millions and is not living paycheck to paycheck, right? If she never works again, she'll be okay. Not Ms. Everywoman.

Patricia Arquette rocks.

You need the dose of reality. Women DO make the same money for the same work. If not, it is illegal! Give me the stats that back up your statement. Stats where a female with equal work experience, equal hours, and IN THE SAME PROFESSION, makes 77% or even 90% of what the male makes. Seems to me that the women that believe that false 77% number are claiming victim status where there isn't one...I can't understand why.

Yes and no. Most Hollywood power players are of an ethnoreligious group that is clannish, does not identify with those white people, and is overwhelmingly liberal, Democratic, and in love with the subversive PC victim agenda. To advocate such a fashionable liberal cause in Hollywood is about as dangerous as a game of Pong. Patricia Arquette, just like George Clooney years before her, said nothing that the Hollywood elite would not smugly and self-righteously applaud.
