[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get serious Ghislaine Maxwell vibes from Amanda Palmer. Amanda said she and Neil weren’t attracted to each other, so why were they together? For Amanda, it was access to his fame and money. For Neil, it was access to vulnerable young women who were impressed by Amanda’s coolness.

Amanda sent a fan girl-who she called fragile- to Neil’s house to “babysit” for hours when Amanda had sent the child out on a playdate. She knew what Neil would do. The fact that she told him to leave that woman alone shows she knew he’d try something. And yes, that 22 year old woman was clearly mentally unstable. That’s why they picked her. A young woman with a supportive family and healthy self-esteem would be harder to abuse.

Yes not just the nanny who she appears to have served up to him in a backhanded way (telling him he "couldn't have her" and then literally driving her to his house even though their child wan't even there and she knew it -- she knew making the nanny forbidden would make him go after her) but also the other woman who Amanda first slept with and then introduced to Neil explicitly so he could sleep with her too. And then Gaiman references this isn the relationship with the nanny, mentioning how it would be more fun if it was like back when they would take turns with a woman.

Also we don't hear much about what Amanda's sex life with Gaiman was like but there is no way she was not aware that he liked engaging in sex or sexual activity with other people in the room, including as it becomes clear, their son. I really do not understand how, given what she must have known about him, she then sends him the nanny knowing he's going to cross the line with her *in front of their son.* It's sick. I feel so terrible for this child who will not only have to live through all this but will grow up and then be able to read all about it online. [/quote]
