It looks like there’s a bit of backlash brewing against Pedro Pascal and not just because he’s the most overexposed actor on the planet who appears in way too many movies these days, but rather, because of his ‘inappropriate’ behaviour with female co-stars (or the hot ones, anyway).
According to the internet, Pedro Pascal is simply way too handsy and touchy-feely with the women he works with. Here are some examples:

Here he is being weird with William Dafoe’s wife, right in front of Dafoe’s face!

Pedro Pascal has spoken previously about his issues with anxiety and how he uses ‘touch’ to calm down his nerves, so I guess that’s what he would claim is going on here. It’s important to note that none of Pascal’s co-stars or colleagues have ever complained or taken issue with his tactile nature, but the internet seems convinced that there’s a #MeToo situation on the horizon.
Now look, maybe it is genuinely a coping mechanism and there’s no issue with that as long as the people he is touching have consented or have no problem with it. It’s possible that there’s a load of Pedro Pascal haters out there just looking to start trouble, either because he’s in every movie ever made or maybe because he’s outspoken on transgender rights and toxic masculinity. Which we know are two topics that really get people going these days.
In any case, it has spawned a few amusing memes..:

Whatever your interpretation, it is kinda funny to imagine Pedro Pascal just straight up sh@gging a bunch of people because of a fake anxiety condition. “Oh do you mind if I just bang you quickly? I’m feeling kinda nervous.” Obviously not saying that’s what is happening here, although there do seem to be a lot of people who are utterly convinced that Pascal is touching these women for sexual reasons. I guess we’ll have to keep an eye on it.
