A few months ago, Terry Crews became one of the only heterosexual men to speak up in the "Me Too" movement about his experience of being sexually assaulted by a Hollywood executive. Crews recounted an incident that involved a WME executive, later identified as Adam Venit, groping his genitals while at an industry party along with being cautious to react knowing the ramifications of such actions as a black man.

Now, after a lawsuit has been filed, TMZ reports that lawyers for WME filed a stipulation of a mental health exam in Crews's civil lawsuit — one that Crews has agreed to.

According to the doctors, the exam will include a "comprehensive psycho-social and medical history and the administration of mental status testing and psychological testing." The exam will take seven hours and be performed by a mutually agreed upon doctor.

The call for a mental health examination for Crews questions why one of the only heterosexual men to come forward is being given such a hard time. Sexual assault against anyone is wrong and should require justice; however, his choice to come forward is being treated as if it speaks to his mental health state.





Part of Terry Crews’ legal battle with the agent who allegedly assaulted him is that Crews has to take a mental exam.

Crews's agreement could be because he knows that his test results will come back negative. However, the fact that he has to undergo this scrutiny is very telling.
