Courtney Love

I'm very surprised this has happened.

And would you question a heterosexual couple who didn't adopt? No, you wouldn't.

I don't doubt that her activism comes from a genuine desire to change the system but she has a transparently narcissistic need to be seen as a leader of the sexual assault revolution and that self importance is rather off-putting. Also her comments stating that anyone who didn't vote for Hillary hates women and that the entirety of middle america is a poison are the kind of sweeping statements that do nothing but give her misplaced rage some validation. Let's also not forget she conveniently dismissed her work with Victor Salva and hasn't mentioned it since. And I don't really see her comments regarding Alyssa Milano @Hylia as 'ruthless' but rather an enemy by association mentality. 'Don't you think I know these people?' tells us nothing. Since divulging her past I do empathise with her but she comes across as someone who just likes to hear the sound of their own voice.

Actually very true. I hadn't considered it before but 'Cowgirl' is always mentioned when discussing Madonna's reinventions.

Artists have been keeping to the East Coast. Where else is she to go other than Perth which pretty much everyone else skips now? Adelaide has regularly been ignored for a while now.

Pretty much this. As someone against capital punishment you could imagine I'm not about to revel in the suicide of someone who was pretty much a convicted pedophile. In saying that, I wish we could remove the stigma so people who have these illicit feelings toward children feel safe to come forward and seek therapy before they act on their impulses.

It just wasn't finished He had Revelation #12, Saturnalia and HUD already written but with no music to accompany them. They delayed release for those songs because they 'tell the story' and I can't imagine a label releasing a seven track album these days.

Well it is Reputation's best song

Chicago West sounds like a hotel or smth

She reads MNation? Rebel Heart is her worst album

Most importantly who will she choose to produce?

My thoughts. I doubt an album will come this year if she hasn't even begun working on it and we've got no evidence that she has I realise she can keep things concealed but an artist of her stature would surely have an insider leak of some sort by now.

I described the setting without embellishments. It was negative no matter which way you spin it and I was pointing that out. I don't think you're getting my point either because I'm not confused about the age of consent law or saying you're supporting his actions. Age of consent has been used as a crutch in this situation and you're effectively working as Devil's Advocate. You yourself acknowledged that sexual assault is a murky area and I agree that oftentimes things can be misinterpreted but he knew what he was doing when he offered her a ride home. His actions resulted in a deliberate attempt to get her alone in a confined space where he knew she was defenseless. Predators get away with this kind of abuse because their victim is of legal age and they have the law working on their side. They place them in these intimidating situations and (generally worried for their immediate safety) they will agree to whatever is happening. That isn't regret for bad sex - that is assault. These kind of crimes need to be assessed by situation because there are so many variables at play that you can't just make a decision based around one law. Call it sexual assault or call it misconduct, I don't care. This man never faced any repercussions for what was clearly an abuse of his power.
