"Looking back, I spanned the line several times and I was the first to apologize. I feel bad about it and I apologize for it, "Schwarzenegger said. "When I became governor, I wanted to make sure that no one, not even me, would ever make that mistake. That's why we have taken courses on sexual harassment to understand, from a legal and behavioral point of view, what is accepted and what is not. ".
After Schwarzenegger's election, despite accusations of sexual misconduct, he and his staff participated in a course on the prevention of sexual harassment.
the Expendables The actor also said in the interview that his vision of masculinity had remained the same at the age of #MeToo.
"I have not changed my mind. I'm a guy, he says. "I would not change my vision of who I am. The woman I was most in love with originally was my mother. I respected her and she was a fantastic woman. I have always had respect for women.
What has changed is his opinion of the reference to his political opponents as "little girl men", which he did in 2004, but not for the reason you might think.
"At the time, it was the right thing to do. It was in my guts. I improvised it, "Schwarzenegger said. "I called them girls because they did not want to take risks. They were afraid of everything. Politicians in general want to do little things so that they do not run any risk. But it was myopic. In the long run, it's better not to say that because you want to work with them. "
