EDIT: Why was this post removed? 🤔

Unwittingly had ‘sex’ with a child, realised it was a child, had ‘sex’ a second time.

And wrote a song about it. And then wrote it into his autobiography.

How this man apparently skated through the #MeToo movement unscathed is truly baffling.

    Well, mistakes were made, it’s regrettable but understandable.

        I mean they sure look different than 10 years ago. I’d probably have a problem currently between distinguishing 14 year old and 18 years old girl in a lot of cases, and cases like this is is why I am not interested really in dating anyone younger than like 23.

        Also I went back to university at age of 29, and most people looked like kids to me at first, but I get used to it, and they all seem very smart, each of them in different way, so that’s a plus.

        Yes, lots of them. Most adult men have no interest in sex with children regardless of the presence of consequences.

          Every woman remembers the day they turned 18 and suddenly so many adult men started showing interest.

                  How would you measure this? Set up an Gynoid that looks like a teenage girl and records all interaction with men?

                  If you have no data, and cannot measure it, what else is there but the lived experience of many people.

                  And even if you had data to prove it’s a small minority of men being creeps towards teenage girls, isn’t it still relevant how that is perceived by said teenagers as they grow up?

                    One thing you could take as a data point is what searches are most common on Pornhub.

                    Neither ‘barely legal’ nor anything adjacent to it even made the top search list in 2024. On the other hand, there are several entries in that list that imply older women (e.g. milf, step mom, teacher).

                    As an aside, I was also intrigued to see that “wife” made the list.

                    So we’ve gone from “most” to “many” to “it doesn’t actually matter how many”.

                    Still need me to explain why your vibes reporting on this isn’t very compelling?

            So to recap: Your claim is “all rock stars are child molesters” and your proof is “how dare you question that women have bad experiences with men!”

            Plus the amount of porn where the fantasy is about having sex with a teenager is endless.

            The men shall decide which of your lived experiences are valid!


            I can’t help but think these people are trying to downplay their sexual attraction to children by pretending every person they’ve oogled was definitely an adult.

            I’m a man, and most women think it’s okay to have sex with underaged boys. Damn, looks like a stalemate.

        Seriously. I wouldn’t be surprised if rock stars in the 80s bragged about how many teen girls they fucked on tv. And then everyone watching would nod along and think “yes, of course. That is what rock stars do.”
