It is wrong to invade, sexually harass, molest, rape anyone. Yet, some of these women went along with whatever happened to them for a film role or contract or to get whatever it was they wanted. For many of them 10-30 years passed after the event occurred, the women were still doing business or sharing friendship with the man and acting like everything was fine. Suddenly one by one women are coming forward and indicating they were invaded in one way or another by a man. Some of them you can find pictures of them posing like old friends. If a man treats you with disrespect and you continue to have him in your life by doing business with him, you are allowing him to use you and are using him. After awhile, it looks like some of these women want attention for their careers.

I wonder about that, but I also wonder if it was so serious why they continued to "be friends" or do business with them. I would not do business with someone who raped me.

I don’t like the notion that these movements lump everything into one “equal” setting. A guy wolf whistling at a woman is not the same as rape.

I agree. And I think we live in a day and age where people love attention. I am sure it is with both genders, but I see it a lot with women these days.

I have been wondering, why now, are they all finally talking?

I don't think we can judge these women by the little bit that we now know. They may have been quiet about it for years because they felt that they were somehow at fault for what happened, or that their reputations and/or livelihood would be destroyed if they came forward or tried to stop it (look at what happened to Rose McGowan). I don't think that coming forward helps their careers.
We can certainly judge those who assaulted them, because they aren't talking about a single incident. Many women are coming forward with complaints about the same person/people.
