The mother confirmed her story. What about the counselor? I’m more inclined to believe her counselor.

Stupid site really ruin our fun to day.

Of course the girls must be super young. Guys should be old. That’s still the case to date.

An hour? Wow.

I bet they promise the girls a career in Hollyweird. Who knows in exchange for what.

A 14 yo Claire Danes had to kiss a 21 yo JL in a series called My So-Called Life. Obviously the showrunner and producers thought that was appropriate. But what kind of message does that send? Girls and guys watching that show will think that’s OK in real life.

Now we know why underage girls think it’s appropriate to give older men their number, visit older men’s house, hook up with older men. It’s OK. I saw it on TV.

Time flies when your gossiping.

LT Times: Opinion: Are Hollywood movies teaching men and boys that predatory behavior is OK?
Take actor Harrison Ford’s most iconic characters. […] Just watch the first kiss between Han Solo and Princess Leia in “The Empire Strikes Back.” Leia backs away from Han’s advances, saying no the entire time. Yet he ignores her verbal and nonverbal protests, pins her against the bulkhead and kisses her anyway. Similar scenarios play out in Indiana Jones movies. At the end of “The Temple of Doom,” Indy uses his whip to forcibly stop his leading lady from leaving in anger, pulls her back to him and kisses her. But far and away the most disturbing is the original “Blade Runner” from 1982 — where Ford’s character, Rick Deckard, slams the door closed to prevent his love interest from leaving his apartment, violently pushes her against a window, and sexually assaults her as romantic saxophone music plays in the background.
These scenes all send the same harmful messages — that women don’t really know what they want and that they secretly want powerful men to be aggressive toward them.
Once you start looking, you’ll notice this kind of non-consensual male behavior everywhere in popular culture. In classics such as “Say Anything,” “Groundhog Day” and the Oscar-winning “Dead Poets Society,” women are framed as challenges — puzzles to be solved or prizes to be won. When a woman says “no” in these stories, it actually means “maybe” or “keep trying.” When faced with rejection or disinterest, male protagonists simply stalk, pester or otherwise push women’s boundaries until their defenses are worn down.

Woman 2

In 2008, the model Laura La Rue, also 16 at the time, had a similar encounter. At Yes! on Prop Two, an animal-rights benefit held at a private residence in Beverly Hills,

At one point, he came over to talk to her. “He asked how old I was. I said, ‘I’m 16. How old are you?,’” La Rue says.

Leto was 36 at the time. He asked for her number anyway. (Her mother didn’t stop it, La Rue says, because she thought being acquainted with Leto would be good for La Rue’s burgeoning modeling career.)

In one exchange, she asked how late he typically worked in his music studio. He replied, “Late. Come visit soon.”

She did, arriving at Leto’s 4,000-square-foot minimalist property one day in late April 2009. “I remember him teasing me the whole time I was there,” she says. “He was flirting with me. He’d lean in close, then pull away, like it was a game.”

“Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate,” says a representative for Leto, “and Ms. La Rue later applied to work as Mr. Leto’s personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions.” La Rue denies ever applying to work as Leto’s personal assistant.

Flattered by the star’s attention, La Rue says, she continued to visit Leto sporadically over the next few months. On one occasion, she alleges, he walked out of a room completely naked. “He just walked out, dick out, like it was normal,” she says. La Rue didn’t know what to think—she was 17 when the incident took place. “I thought maybe this was just what adult men do,” she says.

Sweet mom let her 16 yo daughter give her number to a man 20 years older than her that she just met bc knowing said older man would be good for her daughter’s modeling career. Really, mom? She gave her number. So he’ll be calling her.

A 16/17 yo doesn’t know she shouldn’t be visiting a 36/37 yo man’s house?

JL went bananas with the A2 promo. Here he’s showing bananas.

TV creates predators and parents approve predatory behavior.

Normally, I’m willing to give stories told by someone who’s not anonymous the benefit of the doubt. Not this time. Her mom agreed to this sh*t. Minor and adult have the same mentality. Well, deal with the consequences. Don’t play the victim.

Someone on TFT said that parents can give permission for a minor to get married. True. Perhaps the parents can give permission for this type of relationship too.

That’s a good point. The US can have weird laws, rules, habits.
