The fact that Cha-Cha Carey and Jill E. Beans Carey don’t get along with each other makes me very sad.

Hasn’t Monica Lewinsky suffered enough?

I disagree; what is happening to Coddington is what happened to André Leon Talley when he went from Vogue editor-at-large to contributing editor, and that impact was very deeply felt by this reader; I let my subscription lapse after 20 solid years. That said, I am happy for Grace and excited for her newfound freedom.

There is no Union Square Filene’s.

I never decided what happened. The whole point I was trying to make was that no one knew exactly what happened, and that I did not find the father entirely credible. Of course she is entitled to say she was raped! She WAS raped! I never suggested otherwise, despite your reactionary attempts to twist my words.

Not really. I already knew my suspicious nature was finely honed for perverts and liars; being correct here only makes this young woman’s ordeal so much worse.

You talk way too much.

Then who WERE you talking about? Also, nice to dismiss me. You are a joke.

Wow, there really is something wrong with you telling me to smile when we’re discussing the gang rape of a teenager.

It gives me no happiness to be right. This poor woman’s life sounds like a living hell.

This young woman, by all accounts, was heavily intoxicated. So it’s SUPER great that you are so enlightened that you can see an 18-year-old having sex with her neglectful, degenerate father as just another lifestyle choice, and you can pat yourself on the back for … not “denying her her agency,” or whatever the fuck…

LOL I love that you’re making this about you. Sit down.

I think you’re probably ones of those “Jezzies” (ugh) who take sex-positivity to an extreme, so that you think Genetic Sexual Attraction, because it is an established phenomenon, is just another choice between consenting adults? I don’t know. I don’t care.

Only jezbanned apologized. The rest of these assholes can fuck themselves. Wanting to get the story straight IS supporting the victim, but try telling that to these banshees, all of whom I sincerely hope never go into journalism or detective work.

This “dalliance”? This isn’t Kathryn Harrison having an adult affair with her father. This is a career drunk fucking his long-lost INTOXICATED daughter in a PUBLIC PARK. and then leaving her there to be further sexually assaulted while he stumbled around the neighborhood for twenty minutes. What the fuck is wrong with…

Sorry. I didn’t mean for that to come off as rude. I’ve just taken quite a beating here the past few days. BFE = Bumfuck, Egypt aka the middle of nowhere. In other words, this story is local for me and I have been watching it minute by minute. Anyway, thank you for trying to be supportive.

We’ve had that news for hours. No offense, but I’m not exactly following this story from BFE.

I never, ever, EVER said she wasn’t raped. Yes, she was gang raped. And it looks like her father is one of those who raped her.

Anyone who closely followed the local news on this all weekend — the NYT, NYP, NY Daily News, NY1, and Eyewitness 7 and News 4 NY — knew that the father’s story did not check out, regardless of whatever took place with the young men who have been arrested.
