@manny2 in this country the age of concent is 18. Anyone under 18 cannot give concent. Statutory rape is bad enogh but trafficking girls for sexual purposes is awful. The victims need justice.


You sent this to me, why exactly? I don’t need educating. @chessylady

@manny2 the law is the law. You, like Meghan Kelly, want to see degrees of guilt based on age. That is what your last sentence conveys.

Those are your words, not mine. I didn’t argue degrees of guilt; I clarified the difference in age and impact. That distinction matters. And yes, tossing out “15 not 8” as if it’s a defense shows a failure to grasp the trauma. @chessylady

There is a difference between pedophiles and hebefilia. There's been neither of these in the news.

It is not a coincidence this is happening after VG's book. Read it, It is disgusting and horrifying and maddening and sheds a light on the real "entitled" in this world. It's not some schlub on food stamps.

He gets to transfer from one beautiful home to another- Frogmore Cottage is 5 beds and 5 baths, completely updated with a yoga studio. Andy should get used to living like a plain old multimillionaire. It can't be that hard.


Isn't Frogmore cottage the place where MeAgain complained was too small?

Speaking of MM, saw a video of a guy who bought her "As Ever" stuff.  He opened the box to find the very expensive candle he ordered totally without a wick!  So much for her attention to detail. Then he opened the jar of jam he got and tried it. He spit it back out and said it tasted like cr*p. He then said  "Can I get my money back?"

LOLOL

I wonder if her products have a thirty day return policy like QVC.  I am also wondering why she isn't peddling her products on QVC.  I can only imagine how much fun it would be to see the duchess paired up with Shawn and Mally.

How the royals are raised is over the top.  They are very big fish in a small pond, but the Brits like the pomp and silliness and are convinced they help with tourism.  (No one can actually prove that).  

 

Think about it .... Andrew and all the other royals are raised with everything handed to them on a silver ... no, golden ... platter.   

 

From this perspective, most of them are useless aristocrats.   

 

 


@Tinkrbl44 You have very strong feelings expressed here and I am wondering if it is all wealthy people or just the royals?  And is it all who are wealthy or just those raised wealthy?  I just find it interesting but if you feel it is intrusive to you, please don't feel the need to answer.  

 

Some of your statements here and recently prompted me to ask. . .

She would love the antics with Shawn and Mally, anything with a spotlight. Remember her on Ellen, crawling around doing pranks. If she is center stage, she is in.
