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.

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

          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.

                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?

                    I don’t have the time or resources to make a survey with a representative sample size of how many women have been inappropriately approached by adult men.

                    I can tell you that all women I know closely enough to talk about things like that have had issues with being sexually propositioned against their will by older men from their early teens on. That is, of course, anecdotal.

                    This is also something regularly discussed in culture. If you’re saying that we need more data, I am with you. If you’re saying you don’t want to consider the topic because we don’t have enough data yet, that feels disingenuous.

                    Do I need to explain to you why dismissing people being victimised out of hand because they can’t give you exact enough numbers for your taste isn’t very compelling?

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

          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!”

          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.”
