All this noise about Bowie being a rapist, the fuck? Why do people wait for his death to start bitching about it

Our social fabric is a moral masquerade, yes.
Because some absolute weenies get a rush from the moral superiority they feel over a ~70-year-old man making a dumb mistake fifty years ago.
>>61682733

I don't know about Bowie, I'm sure he enjoyed the hell out of it, and he was never punished for it. The girl apparently still brags about it to this day.
>>61682760

>>61682733
what did he do?
>>61682778
Had sex with a 13 years old girl
>>61682778
Fucked a 13-year-old groupie when he was 24.
>>61682760
Apparently, he banged a 13-year old girl in the 70s.
Assuming it actually did happen, the supposed victim said he didn't force himself on her in any way and described the experience as amazing.
>>61682794
>>61682797
Context is though that everyone was doing it, and she still enjoyed it
>headline accuses Bowie of sexual abuse

15 year old. And she said in a relatively recent interview that she was into it then and has no regrets about it.
People talk about this controversial stuff when celebrities die, because it gives them that edgy cred. They could've bitched about it literally any time before, but when they bitch about it on his death, it's because they are just "so brave for speaking truth to power when no one else dared to".
tl;dr- 2edgy
>>61682817
>everyone was doing it
Yeah OP, everyone around him was a rapist so it's okay that he was too
He wasn't in his late 70s yet
David Bowie is a "sex offender" and Lena Dunham gets away with molesting her little sister. I've never see such cognitive dissonance when to come to the idea of "morality" from these people.
>>61682870
"Statutory rape" is not rape you ding-dong.
>>61682818
lol that's what I noticed, too. It's not that her personal story isn't worth writing about, but she should either write an article about that alone without Bowie's name or she should've spent more time writing about Bowie in the article so her story didn't make up most of the article. The way the piece looks now is like she's just attaching Bowie's name to get clicks, which she probably is, of course.
>>61682839
Source on her being 15? It would be great to shit on my friend's SJW circlejerk.
>>61682878
"these people" are the ones who hate Lena What'shername and deride everything she does as "white feminism"
>>61682887
>rape is not rape
>>61682870
Nobody thought of it as rape back then, it was very common.
How much longer before everyone finally gets bored of this SJW meme? I'd give it two more years tops.
He dated a 15yp who declines being a victim, says she would do it again and thats that. Meanwhile he did more for gender politics than any tumblrite will ever do in their shitty lives.
>>61682906
Nah don't. If your friend is what they sound like, they probably love to argue so they can prove how sophisticated and socially conscious they are. Just avoid them. Better yet, just cut them off as a friend. Do what I do and have no friends at all.
>>61682928
I'm more referring to that tumblr crowd rather than /mu/ specifically, of whom are just using the tumblr crowds accusations to stir shit out of contrarianism
>>61682870
It was okay to do tons of shit back in the day. Your ancestors were likely rapists. Some ancestor of yours probably didn't want women to vote. Do you want to get angry and whine about every terrible thing in the distant past ever? Whining that leads to literally no resolution or action? It's, practically speaking, a waste of time and emotion. What matters is now, and how we can better today's society, not what literally everyone who's dead has done, that would take literally forever to reflect upon.
meanwhile, Joan Jett and many other female rockers probably got banged by underage boys, and nobody gives a shit.
>>61682936
>there is no distinction between having consensual sex with an underage partner and forcing yourself on an unwilling victim
But nope, they both use the evil old r-word, so he deserves nothing but scorn forever.
>>61682906
>Source on her being 15? It would be great to shit on my friend's SJW circlejerk.
There's conflicting sources on her age. Sites say 13 -15.
That said, her age won't help your cause, anon.
At the end of the day, Bowie did pursue and have sex with a teenager. Regardless of whether or not she was into it (she was and says she had no regrets about it), it's still creepy and illegal.
I'll always love the man but this is a black (or at least grey) spot on his record.
>>61682937
>Nobody thought of it as rape back then
>Implying that makes it consensual
People also thought the world was flat at one point, that doesn't make it true.

>tfw in high school I was 17 and my gf was 16

>When I read the news this morning, I asked my editor at another feminist publication how she felt about exploring the nuance—the other side of Bowie that has been lacking from the media coverage. She told me to wait awhile and let the mourners mourn. His fans are often members of marginalized communities, and they may be triggered by his death.
Why must every single fucking thing be filtered through this lens of "marginalization" and "triggering"? How empty and miserable is your life if everything and everyone is judged through that filter?
>>61683050

>>61683050
Ages of consent vary so wildly from place to place that holding any of them as the gold standard ends up being ridiculous.
The long and short of it is this: He shouldn't have done it. He did anyway, and nobody minded. But you probably shouldn't live by that example because he was David Bowie the Rock Star from Mars and you're not. End of story.
>>61683066
Let's let 10 year olds drive, they probably have the motor skills after so many years of video games! Let's let a 14 year old enter the NFL, he thinks he can do it!
>>61683080

She clearly did, as she fucking said she did two months ago.
>>61683094
>The long and short of it is this: He shouldn't have done it. He did anyway, and nobody minded. But you probably shouldn't live by that example because he was David Bowie the Rock Star from Mars and you're not. End of story.
This.
>>61683080
15 is the age of consent in many countries and 16 is probably the most common in western countries. 18 is just retarded but it's no wonder in a country where creationism is taught in schools.
>>61683080
>there is a switch in your brain that flips the instant you turn 18 that makes you capable of acting independently
Not to mention the woman in question has said multiple times that she doesn't regret it.
>>61683098
Lets have people follow around everyone under the age of 18 and make decisions for them because they're incapable of doing it themselves.
>>61683112
I actually think 16 is pretty common in the US too. It depends on the state I think.

If a 15 year old says she did meth and enjoyed it, does that somehow make it okay?
>>61683127
As a 15 year old? No.
But if forty fucking years later she says she was cool with then and cool with it now, then I can't cast judgment.
>>61682760
Are you implying that the man who had a 10 gram a day cocaine habit made questionable decisions?
>>61683121
I have less issues with the fact that a 15 year old had sex and more with the fact that she was 15 and he was 24/25. If he was closer to her age it wouldn't be an issue.
>>61683173
I think that's everyone's issue, anon. If he had been 18 no one would be saying shit except for a handful of SJW's.
>>61683121
>Lets have people follow around everyone under the age of 18 and make decisions for them because they're incapable of doing it themselves.
Yeah, this is called parenting. Teenagers are naive as fuck generally. I'm sure the adults in this thread advocating for them to have consent couldn't stand to be around a group of them for more than an hour.
>>61683098
le slip de la slope :^)
Some dumb bitch said he sexual assaulted her in a dallas hotel after a show he did a reunion arena. i remember that, because i saw that show when i was like 10..btw fuck you faggots..
It isn't even 18 in most places dumbfucks. That's the age where it's legal to perform in porn
>>61683012
dude fuck off
EVERYONE fucked underaged groupies back in the day. None of those girls ever said their age, and lots of 15 year olds can pass for 18, especially blacks and latinas.
You are telling me Axl didn't fuck one or two? Slash? Ozzy? Lemmy?
>>61683098
Those are ridiculous analogies and only serve to hurt your argument. Look, by 18 everyone is expected to have an acceptable grip on reality and enough judgement to make decisions such as consent. Does that mean everybody automatically "gets it" on their 18th birthday? No, of course not. People mature and grow at different ages, some people (mostly girls) mature faster than others. It's a case by case basis, some people are more mentally equipped to handle sex than others. But, according to the state, even though a girl says yes, she's actually saying no. If anything, it's more dependent on the older person's age than the younger person's.
>>61683255
The groupies in "Almost Famous" were supposed to be 15
>>61683273
>But, according to the state, even though a girl says yes, she's actually saying no
Honestly fuck the weirdos who have a plethora of women their own age at their disposal but go after 15 year old girls. Maybe a range of 5 years in age difference is acceptable but most men fucking under aged girls have perverted, manipulative intentions.
>>61682639
Because there's no legal ramifications
Think about it, they didn't have a case before he died otherwise they'd go to court. But now he's dead they can slander him to high hell (fuck)
>>61683273
Well Bowie was like 10 years older right? That's a pretty big difference. 5 year difference and less is where you could maybe defend it. 10 years is pretty rough.
>>61683186
Best post on this issue so far
>>61683012
>At the end of the day, Bowie did pursue and have sex with a teenager. Regardless of whether or not she was into it (she was and says she had no regrets about it), it's still creepy and illegal.
While I agree it was a tad seedy, I doubt he knew she was that young.
Mistaken fact is common.
>>61683186
Parenting is raising kids who aren't naive as fuck.
>>61683419
Hopefully they reach that stage by they're of legal age but it's not realistic for a 14 or 15 year old regardless of good parenting.
>>61683538
*by the time
My grandparents had a big gap in age difference and all was well with that(Grandad was 22 and Grangran was 15 for there marriage.)
Why is this such an issue now and not many years ago? And what advantage do you gain from attacking societal norms from several decades ago? I do not understand what all the hooping and hollering is about.
>>61683538
In sone countries that is the legal age but i guess they mature faster there
>>61683619
I'm talking about age of majority, not consent. It's age 18 almost universally
>>61683609
Because people only had missionary sex through a hole in a cloth for procreation purposes back then. God knows what deviant shit Bowie did with the underage girls he slept with
>you will never have sex with David Bowie as a teen
>>61683609
When I turned 16 in 2010 my grandma sent me a birthday card that said "When I was your age, I was getting married! LOL!" People in this country have forgotten about how normal that was before the prudery of the 80s and 90s
>>61682956
This hit me in the feels
>>61683697
The impact of modernism (which pretty much kickstarted in the late seventies following the restructuring of industrializtion from mom and pop stores to big dominating organizations) changed alot of values that society holds. However, I do think the age of consent stuff is not as easy as a black and white "18 and over" affair, especially when viewing the seventies from a contemporary social point of view.
One of the most dominating effects of modernism is all of us being viewed as a "statistic", and I think age plays into that as well.
OP here.
Fuck the trivial details about what happened, Only one person has answered my question.
Why do people decide to publicize their masquerade post-mortem?
From a sociological perspective, this is a concern to me.
>>61682906
I'm not sure what is worse anymore, people's discussion of the matter or so many people going HURRR DURR SJW'S
If there wasn't a term that wasn't a more reductionist, meaningless turd other than "hipster," well now we've got it.
https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/i-lost-my-virginity-to-david-bowie
She was 15, it doesn't make it okay, but it's not crazy to think that she lied about her age or Bowie thought she was one year older, given that the age of consent is 16 in a lot of places.
It's a shitty thing to do, but I don't think his legacy should be thrown away because of it.
>>61683858
He tried to fuck her when she was 14 though according to this
Would people be angry if, let's say Selena Gomez, had consensual sex with a 14-year old boy? Would she be a rapist?
>>61683899
If I was a 14 year old boy, I would very much like Selena Gomez to have sex with me.
>>61683916

>>61683881

>>61683942
Well, I guess we don't know that it's true, but then you can throw out the whole story and what this whole thread is discussing.
>>61683012
In France 13 year olds can give consent
>>61683844
Could be a lot of things
There's the already expressed cynical view that they are simply contrarian or "edgy" in order to garner attention
Then there's also the possibility that these people are actually "triggered" or much more realistically mildly disturbed by the public reaction of perceived overwhelming emotion towards his passing in light of events they've decided are unforgivable and have decided to express what they believe to be a sincere societal concern
I've also seen several people use the viewpoint as a troll
In any case I think it's at best misguided and at worst entirely asinine
>>61683977
It's exactly because people talked about that constantly and no one was unaware of it. With David Bowie people feel like it's something that's never been talked about.

I admit, it's still very young, but it's usually the time girls start discovering their sexuality. Assuming it actually went down, the girl in question had nothing but praise for Bowie and he didn't force himself upon her. If it happened, it was just two people making a choice.
>b-but statuatory rape

>>61683012
Hmm....it got me thinking, what was the legal age of the time and the state/nation they were in?
I've had older people telling me how common it was for teenagers to live on their own. The distinction between children and teenagers is very recent.
Even then, the woman at the time of the act was most likely psychologically immature to comprehend the situation.
>>61684346
>I admit, it's still very young, but it's usually the time girls start discovering their sexuality.
the problem isnt that children are exploring their sexuality, but that fully grown adults that know that having sex with a child is wrong, but still do it.
>>b-but statuatory rape
i dont necessarily believe its rape, but its still morally dubious and a grey area legally at least.
>Ah yes, the puritanical idea that everyone under the age of 18 is considered a child. Nobody with a brain cares.
under 18 is a child whether you want to acknowledge it or not. the brain is still developing and children make retarded decisions without considering negative outcomes.
>>61684554
I never claimed otherwise.
This generation in particular gets my knickers in a twist, though.
>>61683127
That's a ridiculous analogy. Consenting to sex and taking hard drugs are completely different issues.

>>61684561
Why? You don't have the introspection to figure that maybe you are just repeating what has gone on over and over again? This one just happens to be worse, you just have happened to be right this one time even though other older people have been wrong other times?
>>61683112
>where creationism is taught in schools.
How about you visit the continent before making these assumptions? I was schooled there for nearly 20 years and not once was creationalism taught in anything other than a historical context that pertained to the topic at hand.
And, for the record, it's not 18 country wide. Some states vary.
>>61684558
>child
13 is usually the time when girls have their first period and get interested in boys. Young? Without a question, but not really children anymore.
>its still morally dubious and a grey area legally at least
That I agree. Personally, I would never make such a choice.
>under 18 is a child

Get a grip. These girls grew up in Hollywood and would literally stalk up and coming musicians from venue to venue.
They all knew exactly what they were doing and they wanted it, and if the tales are to be believed it sounds like they had an absolute fucking blast.
Imagine an era where you could hit up the town, walk into a club and see your idol casually reclining on a sofa with a few drinks, and it's the most normal thing in the world to just walk up to them, start a conversation, get absolutely blasted together and spend the night in a hotel in a furor of cocaine fuelled lust.
That being said, I have my doubts about Lori's account.
According to her she lost her virginity to David and was back and forth with him for over 10 years, and not a single photograph of them together exists, Lori Maddox being the girl that was photographed virtually every night at some club or other hanging off the arm of some misc. artist.
If Lori did lose her virginity to David when she was 15, well she was one year away from the legal age of consent and Bowie would have been only 24 himself. I'm not splitting hairs over that.
I'm a woman and I became sexually active when I was 15 myself. These SJW cuntsuckers can eat a dick.
>>61684561

>This generation is no more stupid or conceited than any other.
You're both right and wrong at the same time. Every generation is stupid, but that stupidity always manifested itself in different ways.
>>61684900
Yeah, 15, the same age I lost my virginity and one year off the legal age of consent.
What, you actually think people wait until they're 16? lol
>>61684900
She actually has the exact same kind of body and similar kind of face as an Indian girl I fucked a few weeks back. She was 21. Also look at Ellen Page.
>>61684918
Well I think it's worth pointing out what she looked like since people are saying "maybe he didn't know she was underage", it's unlikely when she looked like that. Especially since she's probably older in these pics. Also, he tried to have sex with her when she was 14, so not just one year off. Also, did you lose your virginity to someone in their mid 20s?

not at all. thats just generally about the age where people really begin to understand the ramifications of their actions. i dont understand where all this 13-14+ year olds are intellectually mature thing comes from. looking back, i was a complete fucking idiot at 13/14 and did so many things i regret. most 13/14 year olds today are actually even dumber than they were just like a 6-7 years ago.

So now the Pitchfork SJWs here, who love Bowie now that he's best new meme, are experiencing some crazy cognitive dissonance.
This is the first time I've ever seen /mu/ so apologetic for pedophilia. When Ian Watkins of Lost Prophets did the same thing, everyone was going nuts about that piece of shit. But now Pitchfork/RYM darling Bowie is accused of the same thing and no one gives a fuck!

This.
Sad truth: humans can be so volatile that they'll capitalize on a person's death being big news like this; use it as a platform and the ensuing buzz to bolster it further. To push a narrative that wouldn't be heard otherwise if they were still alive. To paint someone who's passed on in a bad light, with them defenseless (assuming they would have defended themselves in life to begin with). To steal from those mourning the ability to do so in good conscience, lest they be judged for mourning a person who did such and such thing, because obviously humans are black and white and must be judged solely for either their good or bad deeds.
Such is the nature of some humans. I make it a point to avoid these people.
>>61682733
Oh, and this too. Most people who are spouting this bullshit are the kind of lowlife millennial who shitposts on tumblr about how bad they have it because they have no talent or meaningful interests, and thus zero self esteem. Placing themselves in a crowd that's concerned with seemingly relevant moral issues like this makes them feel like they have some worth, the poor pathetic fuckers. I'd rather be dead and posthumously accused of people a kiddy diddler than live a day in their doc martens.

Getting periods and being interested in boys is not a sign that they're not children. Some girls get their periods/boobs as early as 9-10 years old, they're still children.
13 is young to have sex (not saying is WRONG), especially if it is with a grown man. Apparently no one was hurt or forced and that's great, but it doesn' make it right.

>Apparently no one was hurt or forced and that's great, but it doesn' make it right.
According to whom? You, judge and jury in one person? The supposed victim only had nice things to say about her experience - and there's no crime without a victim, whether you want it or not.
>Getting periods and being interested in boys is not a sign that they're not children.
It's clearly a sign of maturing in a physical way. Hell, a girl getting her period means she's fertile. There is no way you can be that deluded.
>13 is young to have sex (not saying is WRONG)

Tumblr is just so funny. The way that the far left/hyper libertard ideas on it slowly faded out and got replaced with a communism hivemind that hates the far left and liberals is like art in motion.

What victims? All I hear is word of mouth from a girl who admits she loved every second of it. I'm sure that girl really loves being victimized by tumblr so that tumblr can throw out sensationalistic accusations.
>>61686981
So it's ok for, say, a grown man in his thirties to fuck an 11 year old as long as she has her period and thus "physically mature" ?
It doesn't really matter that they're are technically able to give birth, they're still extremely young, naive and easy to coerce.
It's not appropriate for a grown adult to engage physically with a kid (I can't believe I have to type this), even if said kid bleeds once a month.
I'm not saying Bowie comitted a crime, I'm saying it's a very grey area which fortunately did no harm to the people involved but that doesn't make it a good thing.

>>61687239
Imagine being in a position like hers. One where you had consensual sex like 45 years ago with a rockstar, went on record saying it was the shit and you did it multiple other times with him and his wife in the 10 years following, and then people start calling you a victim and refuse to believe that you sincerely enjoyed it at all. Like, literally telling you how you SHOULD feel about it and that the only reason you feel the way you do is because you were victimized or brainwashed or something.
As a rule, sex with underage girls, especially at Bowie's age, is sus as fuck. But this is clearly an exception to the rule; why don't these people bitch and complain about something that actually matters? Why waste time and energy on this garbage? Why guilt people into mourning a pop star who gave them nearly 50 years of entertainment because of one black spot on his record?
>>61687302

>>61686828
one of my classmates got their period when she was 9. In my country the age of consent is 13 though a 30 year old fucking a girl of that age would get lynched, legal or not.
>>61687318
>As a rule, sex with underage girls, especially at Bowie's age
The age of consent is always going to be a morally ambigiuous issue considering what is defined as the right age of consent differs from culture to culture.
The irony is that if David Bowie fucked her in, France I believe it was, the act would morally and legally be considered fine and not an issue for sensationalism.
>>61687275
>So it's ok for, say, a grown man in his thirties to fuck an 11 year old as long as she has her period and thus "physically mature" ?
You will have great trouble finding a girl at 11 who already has her period and sexually interested.

I would actually love for the girl to come out and tell everybody to shut the fuck up about it because she probably doesn't give a shit.
>>61687345
>The irony is that if David Bowie fucked her in, France I believe it was, the act would morally and legally be considered fine and not an issue for sensationalism.
It's borderline. There's conflicting information about her age; if she was 13, then it's not okay because no first world country to my knowledge sets the AoC that low. If she was 15, I believe she was legal in France. If they didn't do it in France (pretty sure they didn't) then chances are wherever they were had an AoC of 16 or 18, 16 being of course very borderline and 18 being quite a decent disparity.
Basically it's hard to say for sure just how this should be viewed in the eyes of the law. Plus we don't even know for sure if it happened because this all literally spurred from Lori Maddox telling a story about losing her virginity to him. Usually I'm in the "Listen to rape victims" but this is literally her bragging about fucking Bowie and how much she loved it (and people are spinning it like she was victim), so I wouldn't be surprised if it's a load of bullshit.
Anyway, point is, we shouldn't obsess over the legality of it. Point is that most people will view it as morally gray at best, and that's okay. But the people jumping down Bowie's dead throat and the throat of everyone who is trying to mourn a deceased musician that means a lot to them are fucking parasites.

mist people at the bbc didn't know about the pedo ring, but savile being a pedo was a well known rumour, some described it as an open secret, the problem was that no one had any evidence, which meant that if anyone had gone on record about it they would expect to be sued for libel

This is a little different. Some Bill Cosby accusations were fairly fucking recent, and he did it a LOT. Plus drugging a woman and fucking her unconscious woman is a liiiiiiiiittle different from two consenting people having sex and reflecting on it positively despite one of the participants being (potentially) underage.
>>61687486
>potentially underage
definitely underage senpai, don't dress it up
I'm not the guy you're replying to but regardless if she enjoyed it, its fucking weird and immoral for Bowie to do it. If it's one transgression in his life we can all move on, and I think it was just one. He's not a Bill Cosby, he's not a monster, he's jusy a human.
>>61687239
>admits

>>61687527
>definitely underage senpai, don't dress it up
Not true at all. The information is very conflicting; like I said in another post, if she was 15 as some people say and they did it in a country in where the AoC is 15 (yes, those exist), then there's no problem.
From what I read though it was in the US, where the bare minimum is 16, so to my knowledge she was underage. Just barely.

>>61687616
That's what I've read, and I find that believable. Until it's confirmed for sure I don't really wanna bother getting wrapped up in the legality of it (especially considering he's... dead?). Morally I'm not down with it, but it was a very different time. I don't like to use that argument but it's pretty fucking applicable here; people back then were super into the "free love" idea and coked out of their fucking minds, including Bowie. That doesn't absolve him of his actions in my mind, but I sure as fuck am not gonna dwell on it or act like he's the devil for doing this one shitty thing.
>>61687655
Exactly, and if it's any comfort to the people that are up in arms about this situation, this kind of shit would NEVER fly with musicians even HALF as popular as Bowie was.
They'd be blacklisted so fast their head would spin.
>>61687710
in today's music sphere, that is
>>61683036
But people don't get punished for having thought that way when it was common. And they shouldn't be.
This is equally as annoying as removing Lovecraft from the literary award because he was racist. Back a century and a half ago, being racist was the most common thing. People shouldn't be judged based on how they acted when different things were acceptable.
That said, if I was 13 and had a shot at 50 year old bowie I'd go for it with no ragrets
I'll be straight with you, if Josef Fritzl was as good an artist and mindfuck master as David Bowie, I'd let him lock up people in his basement all he wants.

>>61683844
i have heard about this consistently in "SJW" circles when Bowie has come up in the past (e.g. Cool Freaks Wikipedia Club on Facebook before I left). i think that his death has provided a good opportunity to publicize this information since it seems a bit arbitrary to bring up what is old virtually public knowledge with no Bowie event going on. i also think that the wider thought Bowie is receiving in the culture has led more "SJW" types to hear the story and thus have the ability to publicize it. i think that the anecdotal issue with Bowie that's being expressed is better expressed in conversation, and i haven't seen an article that wasn't the "SJW" equivalent of a huge fedora tip, and i say this as someone with no sentimentality for Bowie's legacy who largely agrees that what he did was wrong.

There's no proof Bowie fucked Lori. There aren't any photos of him with her and no one has ever corroborated her story. All we have is her word and she has always said that she came on to him and loved every second of fucking him.
Who gives a fuck?
Groupies are fucking whores anyway who are in it for the fame and lifestyle. Not that I judge them. 70's were fucking crazy.
She enjoyed every minute of hanging out, snorting coke and having sex with Bowie, Iggy, Jimmy Page and those were the best years of her life.
What's wrong with it?

In the documentary about an old school music manager, SuperMensh, the guy says later on the rock stars had to stop fucking underage girls 'cause it could cause a scandal and the town would hate us.

Yes, and Bowie did far more than that. He didn't plan of having sex with a 13 year old girl, he actually had sex with the 13 year old girl (unlike the guy from the link). But guess who got into prison and who didn't.
It angers me that people seem to hate pedophiles with a passion, but as soon as it's someone loved by the media, it's "just a mistake" or "she enjoyed it". But only if the media likes you, otherwise it's "burn in hell" or "get raped in prison".
