”X-Men” director, Bryan Singer, is under fire for alleged sexual assault of a minor.
Michael Egan III, now 31, filed suit against Singer in federal court on Wednesday, according to the New York Daily News. The suit claims that Singer sexually abused Egan in the late 1990s, when Egan was between the ages of 15-17.
While Singer’s attorney, Marty Singer, has called the suit “absurd and defamatory,” everyone on Twitter has taken the opportunity to state their position on the case as well.
Many are disgusted with the allegations.

Given the rumors that have circulated about Bryan Singer for years, that news isn’t exactly surprising. I still hope it’s not true though.

But that’s not a good thing, according to others.
Truly, good for you that you’ve also heard Bryan Singer rumors for years, and for making that 100% clear on this day.

A few others have made the point that no one actually knows what happened, and therefore shouldn’t be judging.

Much to the dismay of those who makes jokes out of serious issues.
Perhaps the greatest tragedy in this whole Bryan Singer story is that he’s decided not to attend WonderCon.
