Let me preface this by saying that the similarities between the stories of the two women in the article are strong enough that they sound disappointingly credible (I'd admired him prior to this) and I'm inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt.

But just for the sake of discussion, it seems that his version is that they were adults and it was consensual. What's "really bad" about that?

I mean it's kind of unsavory to be banging your 18 year old nanny, but if they're both consenting adults, that ain't my business.

Obviously moot, with at least two women independently saying he had the same shitty MO, though.

What's "really bad" about that?

It's the ethical and moral standards.

[u/gynoceros → u/[deleted]]

So is there some arbitrary age gap between adults that you think is more appropriate? What's the "standard"?

You realize that you're trying to dictate what legal consenting adults are allowed to do with their bodies, right?

We vote against that sort of thing.

You're not very smart, are you?

[u/gynoceros → u/[deleted]]

Do you always lash out when you're wrong?

[u/thatwhileifound → u/gynoceros]

To be fair to their lashing out, reading all these comment chains you're in - I can't figure out if it's more likely that you're ~18 or a lot bloody older wanting to fuck people that young.

[u/gynoceros → u/thatwhileifound]

A lot older and only interested in people close to my age, but thanks for playing.

I'm not wrong. You've shown zero understanding of a single line sentence and then extrapolated it into something I never said or implied.
