not gonna lie, after reading the article, there's not a lot there. I understand that people can be put in positions where they feel like they "have" to say yes, but they literally don't? I think this is more of a case like Louie C.K. These guys are likely autistic and lacking the ability to really clue in on social cues. Guys that have always been unattractive and lacking in attention from women, suddenly has all the attention of women! So they do dumb stuff, that they should have learned not to do when they were young, but again, nerds gonna nerd, and nerds have not always been celebrated like they are today. I think he just going through a slutty phase because he finally can. from his texts he doesn't come off as a predator, but as a person who's so used to being told "no," that he doesn't know what to do with himself or how to act once they started saying "yes."
You tell me you say that the guy who literally waited for women in their dressingroom naked and started to masterbute as they walked in was just "lacking the ability to really clue in on social cues".
I don't know anymore with these apologists like you. Are you trolling or really this misguided?
Can you cite where CK was accused of that? I'm not saying it didn't happen, but most of what I saw indicted he asked but the woment felt like they had to say yes.
I thought he invited the women to his room, and never tried to force them to show up or stay. I'm not trying to defend Louis, the most charitable thing you can say is that it was creepy and weird AF. But If there is more to it, this is the first I'm hearing of it.
