In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Natalie Portman has another chance to talk about this global issue. She shared that it was great how plenty of things she hasn’t classified as abuse. Initially, she just simply thought that abusive behavior was anything that could make her feel upset. Plus, it’s something that made her uncomfortable and painful.

But now she reconsiders all her initial assumptions that have made her be like, “It was just normally a defective date, it was much like the abusive date”. Or, “it was more than an uneasy meeting, it was like the abusive meeting”. On the other hand, Natalie Portman disclosed that it enabled her to have a different and hopeful look. And, it will be highly likely to eliminate such behavior when both male and female could be aware of it.

It is because not only girls but also boys have a certain limitation to a system which expects extremely explicit things from girls as well as from boys. Options of everyone are restricted due to this.
