Regarding a certain set of allegations, I instantly believe the first part, to wit, an aging divorced guy taking sexual advantage of a star-struck young woman decades his junior. As for the even worse part of the allegations, I don't want them to be true but would be unsurprised if they were.

I'm holding mainly mum on a thing, due to having somewhat expressed my opinion on said person and misogyny for 30 yrs, but same. Saying I don't like how he talks to young female fans throughout the years has been ... unpopular. So, this is an interesting twist. /was 30 yrs ago a young female fan

I remember you talking about this, then I met him and he could not have been more lovely. But I was not alone in his house with him. This all sucks and I totally believe it not bc of any subetxt in his work or anything I saw or heard, but bc women do not gain from the telling.

(And also his "bitches be crazy" denial is SO TEXTBOOK.)

Yes! The crazy defence, also "she liked it". But it tracks. Oblivious and privileged was my feeling. I checked out of fandom around '96.

I went along for many years hoping he was young(er) and oblivious in '94-95 and had fixed it. No smarmy from my experience, but arrogant and dismissive. Comic bro talking to young women stuff. This is disappointing.
