"[The song 'Baby It's Cold Outside' is] just offering an invitation and presenting an argument for not leaving," Shatner, 87, told DailyMail TV this week. "You're not saying, 'I'm closing the door and you can't leave!' It's not force, it's verbal persuasion, which works in the act."

"In 2018 we have the #MeToo movement, which I think is great, that these hidden forces are exposed and not to be allowed and women have equal rights," he noted. "I've got three daughters [ages 60, 57 and 54], I'm all for that. But if you look back at things that were written and said 20, 30 years ago, it’s a different context, and you've got to judge it by that context. Rape and pillage, absolutely not — those are crimes against humanity. But saying 'Would you make love with me?' and the opposing party says 'yes' or 'no,' I can't fathom what’s wrong with that."

He continued, "It's like saying, 'Would you have dinner, would you like to write a song with me, would you do an interview?' I'm not insulted by you asking me to do an interview. Maybe it's my mindset based on the years I've lived, but I'm trying to be fair and I don't see the problem."

Update: when googling this, most headlines put Bill's "hysterical" in scare quotes and said he was "controversial". Only FOX and Deadline did not.
