It seems that this woman and her doctor did the due diligence to ensure a healthy pregnancy was possible. As someone who has experienced infertility for the past 3 year (currently pregnant after fertility treatment- wish me luck!), this is a deeply personal issue and everyone deserves the chance to decide for…

First Class had a ton of potential because Matthew Vaughn directed it.

A better word would be protecting him. The fact he didn’t report Foos and allowed him to operate for decades is terrible. In that time, he could have protected the people who ended up getting violated by Foos. What’s worst, if this can be believed, he took part in watching with Foos.

THIS. I was absolutely shocked when I saw this link in a thread dedicated to creepy news stories on another forum. That forum, while generally progressive, is also male-dominated, and literally no one else in that discussion saw a real problem with Talese’s actions. I was foaming at the mouth. No, it’s not harmless.…

Because apparently Foos’ privacy and consent mattered a lot more to Talese than that of his victims.

But I think it’s the duty of journalists to report on everything, even things that are uncomfortable or weird or cross ethical boundaries.

“Then I stretched my neck in order to see as much as I could through the vent, nearly butting heads with Foos as I did so. Finally, I saw a naked couple spread out on the bed below, engaged in oral sex. Foos and I watched for several moments, and then Foos lifted his head and gave me a thumbs-up sign.”

This man violated so many people with his “observation,” it’s unreal. Not just by watching but going into their rooms and touching their things. Even if he did see drugs, call the police. I’m not sure how true the story about the murder woman is but it shows how callously he treated the people he observed. I can’t…

One of the most disturbing things in the original article was that Foos AND Talese clearly felt (and explicitly stated) that because the guests didn’t know this was happening it wasn’t a real crime - a no harm-no foul approach to consent that is truly terrifying.
