Remember when 38-year-old Jerry Seinfeld dated a 17-year-old high schooler?

Really? Weren't her parents well off?

Would you as a parent pay for your daughter to transfer schools to be the booty call for a middle aged man? He paid so he could be in charge.

Just found out a few weeks ago. Sickened. Can't watch Seinfeld now.

I agree with the: he was a loser in high school posts...latent adolescent...but that's what a podophile is @ start.

Then he dated a newlywed. Even if she chose to leave new husband...he accepted it...adultery on both parts. That's why I like the moral code of 10 Commandments. But not everyone does. And so these differences in what's appropriate.

I think seinfeld was a child molestor/ predator.
Don't know if he still is..

Also: 12 yr. old vs. 17 year old legally not able to consent with adult maturity...no matter what N.Y. law says. So yes, 12 and 17 year are both equal in the ability to not make adult-sized mature decisions, in my opinion.

Loved the post of the now-parent, seinfeld, waiting 'til his daughter turned 18 'til the pedophile boyfriend got into her panties.

And ,Conan's joke...wanted to wait til 21 tonpropose to see if she wanted him to buy beer.

And Stern's candy-bar-on-a-string comment.

And I don't like Conan and Stern. If Stern thinks you're a perv...you must be pretty bad....he needn't take his endorsement off the back of bill cosby's book.









I can see finding the Seinfeld/Sasha relationship a little creepy, but calling him a child molestor is off the rails.

I think he was very socially awkward and lacking confidence. I bet he felt more comfortable with a teenager because that was his mentality.

Then he eventually grew up, married someone closer to his own age, raised a family, etc.



It's not weird when the 38 year old is Hollywood royalty and a billionaire.

Guys, she was almost 18 when they met. They supposedly didn't start dating till she was 18.

Thank God things are changing.

Seinfeld was one of the most famous stars of that time. Everyone felt they knew him— he was (and is) down to earth, relatable, hilarious. Not surprising her parents let them date.



It really want considered acceptable. It was very controversial at the time.

If she is legally underage, then yes.


17 is over the age is consent, and apparently she turned 18 before the actually started dating. They dated for 5 years. It's not something I would do, but it does not appear to be abusive.


Woody Allen.



Ha! Everything's relative, at least Seinfeld didn't marry his daughter... and have kids with her!



And those young girls are ADOPTED which really boggles my mind. How were they allowed to adopt?!



Money buys human babies anywhere in the world. The United States is no different, the price is just higher.

I just hope he’s not grooming those girls to marry them in a few year... I think his own (adopted) daughter was in her early 20’s when they got married. Creepy.

Oh please. They had been dating for a couple of years when she transferred to UCLA. She was hardly his booty call. Keep in mind, they dated for five years.

Guys those babies were MIA Farrow's adopted babies, not Woody's. She adopted them years before she started her relationship with him and they were never married. What he did was still gross,though.

I was an adult when this went on, and it wasn't considered acceptable. It was shocking. Legal, but shocking. That's why it got so much press. I'm too lazy to google, but I thought her name was Shoshauna (sp) thought he married her.

Embarrassed that I remember her name:

Shoshana Lonstein

And that she started a bra and bikini store for large chested women. Perhaps cashed in her fame?

This. It was not a thing all considered acceptable at the time, although how is this an example of "women putting up with a lot of B.S?" No one forced her to date him.

Oh please. I remember all this well as I was a student at GW at the time. And if a man I was sleeping with but wasn’t married to ponied up for college tuition, that would have felt gross to me. The whole thing was weird and inappropriate and I would have been very unhappy if I was her mother.

He is a creep. Period.
