“Ok. I do keep quiet on this every time it pops up on Jez, but... there is no proof he did anything.”
There is a great article from Matt Seitz about this topic:
You should talk to someone,anyone, if you need to about your own abusive experience.
The whole thing is creepy as hell and completely inappropriate-but Allen never adopted Soon-Yi. She was adopted by Mia Farrow and André Previn.
Several judges thought there was enough evidence to remove all custody and to publicly state that he was a danger to his children.
I mean that I know very few people who have been victims of rape, molestation, etc, whose first inclination is to cast doubt upon others claiming abuse.
The point is that if we can’t stop people who lead very public lives and who have a paper trail, how in the hell are we going to stop anyone? The outcry over Bill Cosby and Woody Allen is about their individual crimes, but it’s also a social reckoning of the things we tolerate from those in positions of power. If we…
Why do you think Dylan lied then and continues to lie? What benefit has that brought to her life?
Wait, what? People can only be molestors if they have a reputation for molestation??? He didn't hurt her because he doesn't have a pile of victims willing to call him out?
Your lack of knowledge on how sexual predators work is galling, and every time someone posts some apologia like this it harms survivors and keeps them from coming forward, which gives predators more license to operate.
How about she didn’t want to put her daughter through a public trial.
You know what it takes to be a pedophile? A predilection for children. It only takes one, and that one that has come forward is Dylan, whom you have shit all over because she wasn’t the perfect child victim that apparently meets your narrow definition of victimhood.
Actually, there was a custody case about Dylan, Moses, and Ronan. Moses was old enough he was allowed to choose not to see him, and although Allen was granted visitation with Ronan three times a week, those were terminated after the court-appointed supervisor observed Allen choking Ronan during a session. It’s…
Nice to see you on Gawker, Woody!
Really hasn’t done that much? One child is already too many. You clearly understand fuck all about the pathology of child abuse and inappropriate relationships within families. He raped one daughter, and groomed another for a sexual relationship for who knows how long before she was of legal age. His movies are…
He’d’ve converted to Catholicism, rather than railing against the religion for years.
It has nothing to do with Mia Farrow’s “legal fortitude to fight Woody Allen.” You are deliberately being obtuse on this, and that’s why I stated you are contorting the facts. The powers that be—the court—judged that Dylan Farrow was too fragile. The judge and the prosecutor are both on record to that effect. The…
What evidence would you like? He didn't film himself touching his daughter, but numerous people witnessed him acting inappropriately with her. In your eyes there needs to be semen inside her or it didn't happen? People like you are why so many people do not report assault or molestation.
