Poor little thing...

...was SO taken advantage of by an evil, horny, dirty, old man!

Poor little skank is probably laughing all the way to the bank and quid nuncs get to write or read about another "scandalous" affair. Oh, what is this world coming to? Oh, wait, this kind of thing has been going on from the beginning of man. Maybe it is in his nature and the insane nature of religious values of guilt can be used in a struggle for power. It is only when the masses come to their senses, or get pretty bored with it all, that they reject the guilt candy of small minds.

What is a "bucket list?"

Hmm. Bucket rhymes with -- Nah, you didn't mean that.

What is a bucket list?

Can we revere SOMETHING?!

Morgan Freeman has completely lost my respect as a human being! This latest incestuous insanity comes so shortly after the car-accident debacle with his mistress of another race...it's like he's TRYING to break every societal taboo! What could his wife have possibly done to deserve this continued humiliation?!

With regard to correlations with the Woody Allen/Soon-Yi depravity...I continue to say.....the adult-child trust relationship you have with your children, your step-children and even the children of your friends and neighbors should be never be broken by the adult's thoughts of sex or romance. It is abhorrent that adults don't draw a line, don't possess the slightest hint of self-discipline or simple shame. We should all be as shocked and disgusted by his behavior as by his shamelessness in flaunting all this in public.

"It's unfair that 70-something women can't bang younger men!"

Hypocritical feminist harridans shriek again!

Leave it to "liberal" women to pass hysterical women-are-weak Victorian sexual harassment laws. All in the name of respecting "difference" and letting others "live as they wish." Gays wanna wave their willies in "pride" parades? Cool. A straight-white-male keeps a framed picture of his bikini'd wife and kids on a shelf in his office? SUE THE BASTARD!

Now we are to be shocked that, like Anthony Quinn, a successful older man boinks a hot young thang.

Of COURSE fembots hate it because they want older men to hit on older women...like themselves. But that's not the agreement they signed. Women agreed that young women did not have to be socially assertive. They said grrrrzl had the right to mock men using "stupid" pickup lines (lines that females were spared ever having to make) and act like princesses on pedestals. It seemed fair (certainly easier) at the time. Young poonani with bright eyes and formerly-but-now-shaved bushy-tails had the power to sit still like objects and be picked up by men who either pitched woo or made do without.

Time, then, occurred.

Both parties moved on.

Formerly hot women cooled off, year after year. Lush valleys flush with running rivers began to dry up...if you get my drift.

On the other hand, formerly awkward-poor-unskilled men gained skills-money-fame-status. Why use their hard-earned "power" on former beauties who didn't give them the time of day back in-the-day? They're keeping the agreement: Out with old bags, into new beauties.

It's what both parties agreed to. Girls got theirs earlier, guys later. Eminently fair.

Older women had tons of time to redo the contract if they didn't like it. They chose not to. If anything, first-wave fembots made sure guys would NEVER choose to be with constantly harping hags.

> " If he broke the law he should be punished, celebrity or not."

Right. And if Roe gets reversed and women get illegal abortions, feminists will insist that the law-breakers (celebrity or not) get punished...right?

yay

Guy Power! Gooooo Daddy-O!

at least ONE guy is enlightened enough to follow his heart wherever it may lead!

More men ought to follow his lead. The world wouldbe a much happier place if everyone could follow their bvliss, unencumbered by the ninnie victorian prude feminists.

oh yeah, the ones who were all happy as shit that their OWN old women were dating young men... so I guess you tooties AGREE with this relationship as well!

oh yes it is!

NEWSFLASH: it’s not about sticking your hard dick into a hot, wet hole encased in a nubile young body of a youngster who thinks you are beyond reproach, it’s about the power discrepancy, exploitation and betrayal of trust (he helped to raise her!).

funny how I never hear about power discrepancies, exploitation and betrayal of trust when the genders are reversed...

funny how that is. really...

Didn't Adam and Eve...

have an incestuous relationship ordained by God, herself?

Message #1 to Brightstar

Ahhhh, Brightstar has arrived. Hello. I have a story for you:

In my twenties I knew a guy (also in his twenties) who was educated, disciplined, hardworking, conscientious, forgiving and committed to contributing to his community. For some time starting at age nine to I’m not sure, his drunken, delinquent teenage sister and her partying friends sexually abused him. During college this guy made a ton of money as a stripper, but subsequently secured more conventional employment. At the time he recounted this to me he wasn’t speaking to the sister who abused him. He earned free rent in a crime ridden apartment complex by patrolling it every night on a bicycle. I know he didn’t do drugs and I don’t think he drank either. If I remember correctly, he was training to be a police officer.

The people who have been victims of child sexual abuse don’t want to remain victims, whether they are male or female. And they have a ton of anger and grief. The vast majority of these people grow up to be high functioning, ethical people in their families and communities. Some, usually the more severely abused and untreated, go on to be drug addicts and possibly even criminals.

I think that growing up being exploited can make one more likely to exploit oneself as well as others. Maybe if fewer girls were exploited then there would be fewer gold diggers. Maybe if fewer boys were exploited and other wise abused they would be much more capable of empathy. In any case there would be fewer people in pain.
