An Open letter from Dylan Farrow regarding Woody Allen (1 Viewer)

An underage girl can't consent to taking drugs anymore than she could consent to having sex.
Of course she can't. Polanski committed a felony and he deserves to be punished, still. I shouldn't have placed quotation marks around the word crime.But my point is that this sort of crime, while bad, doesn't in my mind warrant lifetime condemnation, whereas if Woody Allen did what's being claimed would.
wow
Wow?I believe that if Woody Allen had sex with a 7 year old, he ought to spend the rest of his sorry life in prison- and if he were a younger man, a minimum of 20 years. And I would NEVER forgive him if I knew him. Polanski deserves to spend a couple of years behind bars, perhaps longer for trying to avoid it. And eventually I could forgive him. Do you really not see any moral distinction?
No, I see no distinction between raping a 7 year old and raping a 13 year old.
If its rape, then you're correct. Do you see any difference between rape with a 7 year old and statutory rape with a 13 year old?
#### off, tim. Take your #### somewhere else.
+1

Maybe Tim can go drop some knowledge on those in the Suicide thread.

 
Yeah tim. If your opinion differs from the power player clique on the boards then you have no right to post. Actually you shouldnt even be allowed to have an account

This board is not for discussion its for cronyism

I seem to have hit a nerve, and if so I apologize. I really do believe there is a distinction to be made here. I have made the same point in other threads on the same topic. It's an unpleasant topic, but of we're going to have an honest discussion about it, there really is a difference between these types of acts.
 
Wow, I've felt for some time that Tim was one of the worst things to ever happen to this board, but who knew this. The guy is honest-to-god pro-pedophile based on his commentary in this thread. "Body of a 20 year-old"...really?!?

Tim -- you are a disgusting human being.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you simply misunderstood what I wrote. Otherwise, calling me a pro-pedophile is probably the worst insult you could ever make towards me.
 
If the moderators here believe that I have attempted to justify pedophilia in any manner whatsoever, then I deserve to be banned. I have not, and I EXTREMLY resent the accusation that I have done so.

 
I'm still not sure what I wrote that was offensive.
Trying to draw a distinction between one rape and another, citing one victim's promiscuity and body type as if that had any relevance whatsoever to the gravity of the incident. And diminishing it with the use of quotations.

 
His "crime" was to have sex with a promiscuous 13 year old with the body of a 20 year old. I don't approve of such behavior, but it's hardly worth lifelong comdemnafion.

1. "Crime"...sex with a 13 year old isn't a crime?

2. "the body of a 20 year old"...WTF does this matter? 13 is 13 right?

3. "...hardly worth lieflong comdemafio (sic)...Really, pedophilia isn't worth life long condemnation?

Come on man.

I shouldn't have used the quotations. I apologize again for that. As for the rest of OT, I wasn't justifying Polanskis behavior- the distinction I was making was whether or not I could forgive him enough to go see his movies. I have. That was all.

Have you boycotted all of Polanskis movies since 1977? I have not.

This isn't about him, now it's about you and your disgusting views.

 
And by the way Tim, leaving this thread isn't going to change the perception that you are pro-pedophile. You know why, because that is what you've portrayed today...pro-pedophile. Makes one wonder.

 
Tim isn't a terribly articulate person, at least not based on his written communication. Thus some of the IQ-challenged comments we've seen in the FFA for years. But do folks really think he is pro-pedophile? I just assume he is a) a poor writer, and b) not particularly bright when it comes to constructing logical arguments. Neither of which is a new thing.

 
I kind of understand what Tim is trying to say I just don't know why he's trying to say it.

Has it been alleged that Allen had intercourse with the 7 year old?

Tim, sometimes it's just better not to say anything.

Yes -- by the 7-year-old herself.
I read the weird stuff with the thumb in mouth and the breathing on the lap but never saw intercourse or his genitals involved. Not excusing anything just curious what was alleged to have happened.

 
Celebrity immunity.
I'm not sure - he was criminally investigated and it doesn't look like the charges were dropped because of his celebrity.
Is it common for charges to be dropped due to the fragility of the child victim in less high profile cases? I'm not familiar with law whatsoever so I have no clue.
No idea either, but they said the details of her story kept changing, she sounded coached, there wasn't any physical evidence, and he passed a polygraph. Maybe not enough to go on.

 
I'm returning to apologize once again.

I can see now that what I wrote this morning came out horribly wrong. Of course I did not intend to defend pedophilia of any sort. I have two daughters, 13 and 11, and I believe I would murder whoever touched them.

I wasn't trying to justify Polanski, I was trying to justify my willingness to watch his movies because I didn't believe his particular crime, per the testimony of his victim, deserved lifelong condemnation- though it certainly deserves to be condemned. . While I still feel that way, it came out completely wrong. I didn't mean to offend anyone here, and again I'm sorry if I did.

And after all, Roman Polanski's films look like they're a hot 20 years of age, so...

Are you talking about the testimony where a 13 year old girl described how a 43 year old man gave her champagne and quaaludes and then despite her protests he had oral, ######l and anal sex with her? Is that the testimony you're talking about, tim?

No. Later testimony. But it doesn't matter. Hope you accept the apology and understand that what was written was not really what was meant.
 
Where do zerberts fall on the inappropriate behavior scale? I've given my 3 year old niece about 100 zerberts and we both very much enjoy it.

 
Look, she was clearly asking for it. What was Polanski supposed to do, NOT give her what she wanted? He was just being a good host.

 
Tim, you're a pathetic human. You said you were leaving the first time, and within 2 hours you were back, leave for good. Honestly, your a puke worthy piece of trash.

 
Tim, sometimes your desire to parse every argument down to some happy middle ground is just embarrassing. Sometimes you need to shut the hell up and stand against something. Please stop posting your argument in this thread. No one wants to hear it. Trust me.
