Early in her career, Charlize Theron had to accept requests that were often very disrespectful, because she needed to have a chance at work. For example, Theron was once forced to try on and change clothes in front of a number of men, to ensure that in the eyes of the group of people who had a role in selecting actors, she was a suitable choice, with enough sexiness. , attractive.

At that time, Theron had no voice on set, she was forced to do what she was asked if she did not want to lose her first precious opportunities.

Theron said: “Having to wear sexy clothes chosen by a group of men, as well as having to try on and change clothes right in front of them, so they can judge whether I’m sexy enough for the role or not.” , which made me feel disrespected.

When I first started acting, those things were not condemned like they are now, people considered them normal, nothing to talk about. Powerful characters in the project have the right to choose what I wear when I play the role. There are projects that I participate in, the director makes me try on one outfit after another, all just to see which outfit I look the sexiest in.”

One night in 1991, when Theron was 16 years old, her father came home drunk and carrying a gun. She and her mother were scared and ran into a hidden room, locked the door, but at this time, her father took a gun and shot through the door three times. Fortunately, these bullets did not harm both her and her child.

At this time, her mother used her gun to protect the lives of mother and child. Her father died that night. Because the mother’s actions were to protect the lives of mother and child in a legitimate way, she was not subject to legal punishment, but for many years afterward, Theron always tried to hide this incident and said that her father died because of a traffic accident.

But gradually, she understood what she had gone through and the meaning of publicly sharing that story, to encourage those who are victims of domestic violence: “Now I no longer feel bad. I’m embarrassed to talk about this story anymore, because I believe that when victims of violence dare to speak up, we will realize we are not alone.

My story is the experience of someone who grew up next to an addicted relative. I hope people understand how seriously that can affect a family’s life.”
