The Buffy creator has broken his silence on allegations by actors of threats and cruelty – but maybe he should have just stayed quiet.

. Reading it, it’s shocking that Whedon ever thought his comments would vindicate him or make him sound better.Through the interview he offers four possible explanations for the misconduct accusations, which he mostly denies: 1. A shocking childhood trauma; 2. A “sex and love” addiction; 3. The insecurities that stem from being an unpopular nerd ; and, most eye-rollingly, 4. He is too nice.

It’s the kind of interview he didn’t have to do, and probably shouldn’t have. In the silence, fans could imagine he was doing some self-reflection and was sorry for what he’d done. By speaking he showed a kind of tone-deafness normally reserved for apologies made by US Republican senators orNow fans are left to work out what these revelations mean for them and the brilliant works of fiction that helped shape their lives and values.

You can get defensive and say you did nothing wrong, and that if you did it’s because you had a bad childhood. Or you can take a moment to push past that defensive reflex, accept the criticism and make the necessary changes to ensure you don’t do it again. And only one of those makes you a better person – and avoids abuse allegations on an industrial scale.to brighten your outlook.
