It reminds me of all the celebrities who came out in support of Ellen when she was being criticized for the toxic workplace on her show. It’s like: sit down, you are a famous person, not a production assistant with no clout--of course she’s nice to you. I feel the same way about people who defend Allen: you’re an…

I also don’t believe he waited (cuz lol how convenient) but also even if he did, waiting until the day someone turns 18 is STILL TF CREEPY. It’s always been so annoying to me that society is like well he was attracted to the child but waited until he was in the clear legally and thinks that somehow makes it better.…
Of course, NOTHING! HAPPENED! until she turned 18 and they realized they were in love. TOTALLY NOTHING, IT WAS JUST RANDOM AND HE CONTROLLED HER ENTIRE CAREER AND EARNING POTENTIAL, LOL! #love
One of my favorite comedians, Katherine Ryan, has a bit about it in her Netflix special. How somehow, magically, on Celine’s 18th birthday they just randomly happened to fall in love. I think Celine is great, and I enjoy her kookiness, but she really has no context when she talks about her late husband being the love…
Soon Yi isn’t innocent in this. All these years later she’s still with him. She had sex with her mother’s husband, her father figure. So its funny when you say she doesn’t want her sex life discussed by strangers. What did she think was going to happen when she decided to have an affair with her step father? That’s…
Defended him with him sitting in on the interview. Like he couldn’t trust her left to her own devices. Disturbing.
She is and will always be a part of the narrative. She is exhibit A! and seriously ‘she was 18 when it started’ is supposed to be justification? which very likely isn’t true. And even if he did waited until she was 18, what conversations and actions was he having with her BEFORE?? his actions didn’t just occur on her…
Exactly. Any older man dating an 18 year old is super creepy and disgusting. An 18 year old that he knew as a child and had a relationship with continuously, that screams of long term grooming.
Especially since she’s still married to him and has been part of the conversation defending him. Either we can think she’s a victim or she’s a bad person who fucked her stepfather and then defended him and stayed with him when he was accused of molesting her sister. I’d say the former is the kinder interpretation
It wouldn’t surprise me. According to Mia Farrow, Soon Yi had learning disabilities, and a pretty horrific early childhood that likely caused psychological problems as well. Those would have made her susceptible to the grooming overtures of a pedophile, especially one that had a custodial role in her life.
“are we sure after hearing Dylan’s anecdotes that his sexual relationship with Soon Yi started at 18 and not earlier? Because I can’t envision him having that type of restraint can you?”
The “he wasn’t a father figure” argument is so incredibly stupid. Of course a child’s mother’s long-term boyfriend is going to be a father figure to some extent. Even before this home video footage was released, pictures of the two of them on family outings were easy to locate with a simple Google Images search. Allen…
What’s muddy about it? He fucked his children’s sister. That was Dylan’s—his own daughter’s—sister. I’m not sure how you can talk about this family dynamic without talking about that, I’m not sure how you can talk about Dylan’s relationship with Woody without talking about that, and I’m not sure how you can talk…
After all, the allegations that he molested his adopted daughter came shortly on the heels of the established fact that he fucked his girlfriend’s adopted daughter.
Yeah. Even though all of this information has been available for years and years.
So I could be completely wrong, but memory is not really an accurate record of events, and memories made during a stressful time, like joining a new family, can be especially limited. Any bets on whether Allen gave Soon-Yi an alternate narrative of her early time with the family while he was grooming her? “You never…
are we sure after hearing Dylan’s anecdotes that his sexual relationship with Soon Yi started at 18 and not earlier? Because I can’t envision him having that type of restraint can you?
There was so much to takeaway from this very first episode. There is clearly a very, very, very weird vibe between Dylan and Allen. He’s hovering around her constantly and it’s noticeably different than a concerned dad or a dad who thinks his little girl is the greatest thing ever. Just in the videos we see, he’s…
Oh man, I wish you would have said there’d be spoilers from episode 2. I only have ep 1 on my feed. I’ll still watch. I don’t mind spoilers as much as some people, but episode 1 was so compelling.
