[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The victim blaming on this thread is disgusting. Do you all really not understand grooming, gaslighting, or the cycle of abuse???[/quote]

No, we get that.

Do you not understand that his reputation precedes him? This wasn’t some clean cut choir boy. He told the world he was a weirdo into weird, gory, dark kink. That’s who he is.

Anyone with eyes could tell he wasn’t normal and would be bad news. [/quote]
Well, she was a teenager, and she alleges that he groomed her. That could mean months or years of trying to overcome any instinctual caution she might have felt toward him. [/quote]

But why was she hanging around him in the first place?

It’s not like he was a normal guy.

A weird celebrity but a celebrity nonetheless paid attention to her, so she saw an opportunity to advance her career or party on his dime. She took a big risk given what the world knew about him. [/quote]

You must have grown up pretty sheltered if you thought a) he was all that weird and b) don't have any friends who were charmed by creepy older guys as teens (and those guys didn't even have any power/fame/money). She was already an actress and on the Hollywood scene. And 18 year olds are pretty well known for not listening to advice because "he said I'm different from all the other girls".

Once upon a time I was a little goth kid and you would never know in a million years unless I told you. Nowadays I'm a CPA and a boring married mom in the burbs. And so are all my old goth friends. Manson was actually considered "goth lite" - being a "Mansonite goth" was like being a poseur.  :lol: [/quote]
