Bill Cosby = Serial Rapist

[Hortical]

He can not run away anymore from the multiple accusations of rape & sexual abuse.

“The next thing I remember was coming to on his couch while being undressed. Through the haze I thought I was being clever when I told him I had an infection and he would catch it and his wife would know he had sex with someone. But he just found another orifice to use. I was sickened by what was happening to me and shocked that this man I had idolized was now raping me. Of course I told no one.

Only an admission will be enough for me,or an accusation from one of the cast members of the Cosby Show.
Then and only then will I say he wasn't one to wear his pants low exposing his underpants,nor did he indulge in ebonics.Apart from it being an eye and ear sore,it is largely a victimless infraction......
Bottom line, which demographics will now be your safety net,Bill?
Hollywood is sick,it has always been that way.

I hope I am misunderstanding this post or missing the sarcasm somewhere.

What do you mean by that?

[Rockman]

Pants sagging and ebonics are the least of our problems,the behaviour of so-called iconic members of our race being called into question is overwhelmingly more consequential.

[Rockman]

Islandman,IF the allegations are true(the out of court settlement albeit Michael Jackson did the sane and he wasn't guity)then we are taking cues from an undesirable that is dwelling on trivial issues.It is like Charles Barclay painting a picture of ignorance of his race to his caucasian friends without making the correlation with the insatiable desire for one to validate themselves after attaining success by marrying a caucasian women.

[Hortical]

Too many women have come forward for me to dismiss the allegations.
Something is wrong here.....

Rockman, you can't be serious???

[Gamma]

it should be less about the numbers though, perhaps the modus operandi ....

his lack of any RESPONSE ... i find that chilling.

Maybe the single best college course I have done [is] called Reading. The minimum score without repeating was a 'B'.

One important take from that course, is the importance of simplicity in writing. That short sentences...with simple words are best comprehended.

Even in technical writing, it is stressed that the simple approach is most desirable.

He settled with one. That one had the best case so far because she was never his side chick. 12 or 13 more supported her and were willing to testify against him as 'Jane Doe 1,2, 3 etc in the case that was settled. 5 of those 13 were also taking his money and gifts. The other 8 may have good cases but they don't want to be identified.

The one that is most vocal now (Barbara) is the most interesting. She was the only 1 of the 13 that wanted her name used. She was 17 when they met and may have been raped initially but she stuck with him for years when clearly he was using her as his side chick. If he wants peace then he has to settle with her despite the fact that she cannot win in court.

[Islandman]

Wow.

By "may have been raped initially" do you mean statutory rape or the more general form of rape?

BTW I am not suggesting for a minute that a woman cannot be raped and then decide to become involved with her rapist, it does happen. Just asking for clarification.

Well as I always say, we don't know these people.

I wonder why Rockman says it would take one of the Huxtables making such a claim for him to believe? What is so special about them?

[Gamma]

sounds like a line from Monty Python's "Life of Brian" ...

"Mom, you were raped?"

"Well at first, yes!"

Good one. I never thought of statutory rape. I am not sure where she said it happened and the age of consent at the time. What I meant that she may have trusted him at age 17 because she did not know better. Here is her story.

Drugged then raped could easily be the strategy on cast members too,can't see him being in control of his predatory instinct considering the years he spent in that working environment.Replenishing victims is probably why had so many daughters.The idea of moving up because of association is what lured his victims,not being a Huxtable may deter victims....
I would be surprised if he was able turn off his predatory instincts as one does a light.
His tv wife likely would have been the first one victimized,if there is an allegation from one cast member followed by the domino effect we are seeing,then I would find it harder to discount.
Rape has always been a problem for women,was that addressed in any of the episodes of that family show?
