Asia Argento is one of the many women accusing Harvey Weinstein of sexually assaulting her. Unlike the other victims such as Ashley Judd, Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow who have received nothing but endless support, Asia has received nothing but scrutiny from her own country.  Unfortunately for Argento, instead of being supported for speaking out, she is insulted, blacklisted and accused of the rape being her fault. Argento states, “Italy is far behind the rest of the world on its view on women”.  In conclusion, Argento felt the need to move to Germany to get away from the scrutiny and victim blaming she received from the Italian public.
