Following the online reaction to Adam Levine’s alleged cheating, journalist Rachel Thompson recounts her own experience being the ‘other woman’ – and explores why the misogynistic trope is as alive as ever.
After the deed was done, the guy in question faced zero repercussions; he emerged unscathed, while I was cast as the villain. All the more galling was the fact that he had been the one to pursue me. One by one, every single person in our friendship group cut ties with me. My flatmates didn’t speak to me for two agonising months, and eventually, I lost every single friend I had. Even today, the man in question is still at the heart of the friendship group, which remains fully intact.
Levine has since denied having an affair but acknowledged that he “crossed a line during a regrettable period in my life”, and called his actions “inappropriate”.Hailey Bieber, Selena Gomez and why the cultural narrative of the ‘man-stealer’ needs to finally be laid to rest in 2022 Jezebel evolved into a racist stereotype that was used to sexualise and violate enslaved Black women.
