I can't say any sane person would want to party in Florida after watching that. I’m not exonerating him, but it’s really unfair to say that someone is soooooo good at acting they’re probably a scumbag IRL. Leonardo DiCaprio is, unlike 95% of the people in this thread, a world class actor and thesbian. Also, as long as Leo’s new girlfriends are above board and not teens, IDGAF. I haven’t been able to listen to Seinfeld since I heard the thing about his 17 years GF when he was 35 and the biggest comedian on TV. Some serious Paul Walker erasure going on.

Leo is absolutely a world class actor and philanthropist and that's great - but I think its fair to be grossed out by him still living the pussy patrol lifestyle at 44. Obviously its all fine if everyone is a consenting adult and I didn't imply he was a predator. Just that it undercuts what The Wolf of Wall Street critiqued and contributes to the glamorisation of it because DiCaprio's life parallels Belfort's superficially.

it is gross dating people 20 years your junior even if you aren't doing anything actually illegal.

Yeah but I do gross poo poo all the time. A consenting 23 year old and a consenting 45 year old is not a problem for me. A consenting 30 year old and a consenting 16 year old is definitely a problem for me. Both are weird. One is obviously, on its face, more problematic because it involves a child.

It’s almost as if they aren’t dating 24 year old super models for their life-experience. These people aren’t there for companionship, there there because if you’re the hottest guy on Earth you wanna gently caress the hottest people on Earth. It’s not like they can have regular relationships with regular people once they become too famous to go to the grocery store. I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong or gross about hot people wanting to gently caress each other, at all. As long as those people aren’t kids.

I agree that Leonardo Di Caprio should only have sex with women his age so that the point of one movie he made is not undercut

Well it’s kinda interesting because more than half the threads content is less cut-and-dry sexual assault and based on power dynamic. Can you reasonably expect a balance of power in a relationship with Leo, for example? What women wouldn’t be completely dwarfed by his money, fame and influence? Many in this thread might argue it’s literally impossible for someone that famous to have a normal relationship, because even if Leo loved and cared for you, you’re only one big fight away from getting replaced by literally millions of women who would die to take your place. Does Leo even have a female contemporary? I know she’s nearly 30-40 years his senior but he’d need Meryl Streep or Angelina Jolie or Britney Spears, someone with so much of their own power and influence that it’s normalized, or at least balanced. I mean that’s all we really talk about when it comes down to Louis CK, right, at least with the women who consented initially, we say they felt like they had to because of power imbalance, because he’s a gatekeeper. What happens if you become that famous? I’d argue at that point there’s no chance of a real relationship and you might as well just gently caress hotties until you die.

Bust Rodd posted:Well it’s kinda interesting because more than half the threads content is less cut-and-dry sexual assault and based on power dynamic. There's practically never an equal balance of power in any relationship. Someone has more experience, or is smarter, or makes more money, or looks better, whatever. Louis CK's initial apology, before he became a gigantic dick about it, explained it. Even if he didn't know what he was doing at the time specifically, him being in a position of professional power over those women due to his clout, meant that their consent was basically nullified. It's the same as a guy dating a junior coworker where he may be able to influence her job and position (which is also why you have to report office relationships to HR in large companies). That's also why this kind of thing is situational and not an either/or thing. The power differential between a minor and a much older adult is never reconcilable, so you can draw a hard line there. Same with a situation where someone literally threatens a career. Or someone assaulting another. But relative power differentials between consenting adults is all dependent on context and specifics.

I think one could make a strong argument for one member of the Pussy Posse’s indictment being an indictment of the Pussy Posse as a whole.

Bust Rodd posted:Well its kinda interesting because more than half the threads content is less cut-and-dry sexual assault and based on power dynamic. The power dynamic conversation is definitely important to have I think especially how it relates to cases exploiting fame to get laid. There's the argument that people sleeping with famous men are getting "something" in return but I think that can get pretty hazy in terms of power dynamics. I think it can get abused pretty quickly. More in terms of people directly sleeping with fans - which can be pretty tricky to parse because there's a lot of competing dynamics there. The Aziz Ansari thing kind of falls into that spectrum. I am sure it is unintentional for a lot of celebrities but I can easily imagine some celebrities exploiting that. I feel like there are probably more famous people that do manage to get into healthy relationships than are forced to recycle blonde models in their early 20s. Leo is an exception rather than the norm in that case. We just have a cultural expectation that's what movie stars do - probably in no large part due to Leo himself.

The reason why Leo has so few contemporaries who are on his level of fame and wealth is because Hollywood is designed that way though. Actresses are treated as if they have a finite shelf life whereas the DiCaprio's of the world can age poorly and still get tons of big money work. Leo is not the pretty boy he once was and still gets huge roles, it's very very rare for actresses to be allowed that privilege.
