Wasn't she in a relationship with now deceased Anthony Bourdain?

She was. She was cheating on Bourdain which drove him to suicide. Also, now that she's been outed as a sexual predator she went from claiming nothing happened, to he jumped her bones, to now we don't really know the situation and we should shut up.

Crazy.

He ****ed an Italian actress and got a big pay day. Look at his smile.

TYT reports that the guy took advantage of the situation.

Of course Asia Argento broke California law, but it doesn't mean she is like Harvey Weinstein. Any rational person would see it. Comparing her to a rapist predator isn't a wise thing to do.

“I did not initially speak out about my story because I chose to handle it in private with the person who wronged me. My trauma resurfaced as she came out as a victim herself. I have not made a public statement in the past days and hours because I was ashamed and afraid to be part of the public narrative.”

He continued, “I was underage when the event took place, and I tried to seek justice in a way that made sense to me at the time because I was not ready to deal with the ramifications of my story becoming public. At the time I believed there was still a stigma to being in the situation as a male in our society. I didn’t think that people would understand the event that took place from the eyes of a teenage boy. I have had to overcome many adversities in my life, and this is another that I will deal with, in time. I would like to move past this event in my life, and today I choose to move forward, no longer in silence.”


Gee. I wonder why he felt conflicted about it....

If 17 years is a problem, then we should raise the age of consent to 25 years. The rational part of a human's brain completely develops at age 25 according to the medical literature. Read "Is 25 the new cut-off point for adulthood?"

Edit to add

Should a young adult go many years to prison and/or register as a sex offender for having sex with a 17 year old?

DT,

You're cool with a 30-something adult with connections in Hollywood luring a teen actor to a hotel room, plying them with alcohol, engaging in oral sex, damned them, and them posting it on social media?

You're cool with that?

Did you read what I wrote? If 17 years is a problem, then let's change the age of consent to 25. Why not raise it to 25 years?

Of course it was wrong just as TYT explains in the video I shared, she broke the law and it was inappropriate behavior, but should she go 10 years to prison and register as a sex offender? I can't speak for others, but I myself wouldn't have a problem if a hot Italian actress gives me oral sex.

She was 33-years-old with a presumably developed brain, and still did the wrong thing with a minor over whom she held significant advantages. So, I'm not sure you're understanding the age disparity issues here.

But, hey, thanks for letting the board know you wouldn't mind if a hot Italian actress places her mouth on your genitals. Cool.
