You say he abuses his fame and power. I don't really see and power accept money and fame. If people are attracted to fame and power, then why should he not be allowed to use his? Why is that different than a woman who shows off her breasts to get a date?
You don't see why unbalanced power dynamics lead to abusive situations?
So you are saying that all golddiggers are automatically victims now because there is an ‘unbalanced power dynamic’?
Yes, that's what OP is saying.
So now I have to feel sorry for girls who choose to only date old millionaires? Crazy…
Welcome to 2023. Accountability went out in the 90s.
I don't really get the people that bitching about using their fame to get laid either. Are we only allowed to date within our own social class? If they're being coercive, yea, that's a problem but it's possible to have a relationship without coercion.
I'm not defending this dude but the problem with him was that he was pursuing minors not that he was famous and successful.
