VIDEO : Meryl Streep Thinks Rotten Tomatoes is Sexist

Celebrity in this news:

There are apparently 760 male film critics on Rotten Tomatoes, and only 168 female critics in comparison. And Meryl Streep is not having it. The actress is starring as early women?s rights leader Emmeline Pankhurst in Suffragette, in theaters Oct. 23, which is a drama about the British women?s suffrage movement. At a BFI London Film Festival press conference for Suffragette on Wednesday, Streep called out one way in which modern-day gender inequalities is manifest: that is, Rotten Tomatoes? film criticism, which consequently has sway over the nation?s box offices. The actress said, "Of those allowed to rate on the Tomatometer, there are 168 women. And I thought, that?s absolutely fantastic. If there were 168 men, it would be balanced. If there were 268 men, it would unfair but I?d get used to it."
