    He and his GF didn't drift in apart. He was in love with her and he was duped into thinking she was with him. She cheated on him, it became public, they got in a fight and he could't deal with it.

    It is his fault for falling in love with what is obviously an evil, manipulative psychopath. Its also his fault for standing behind her feminist crusade. He really did get cucked and his life spiraled out of control. You're right, his death is on him. Even worse, is that he managed to fall in love with an evil bitch.

    Yes, he is a dick for killing himself. He clearly was a little beta bitch and got fucked over like beta bitches do.

    Argento dated and slept with her "rapist" after the "fact" for several years.

    The creepy thing in all of this is Argento has known this boy since he was 7. Some would say she may have been "grooming" him for the fuck.

    This picture is just chilling. She is a manipulator, and probably kept in touch over the years with alterior motives. Some evil lady like Argento manipulating someone like this over a decade, culminating in her fucking him when he's underaged probably makes a ton of psychological scars.



    The one time bang that happened is small in comparison for the years of grooming and behavior from Argento.

    Well, you could say that he chose his career over his child. Who knows, I don't know their relationship. Some people (not me) argue that we shouldn't judge those that commit suicide though because sometimes they "can't control" themselves.

    I liked his travel and general outlook on life. However, when he started dating Argento, his tone mimic'd her militant feminist demeanor.

    Previous point that you had quoted mentioned that Argento and her victim:

    "maintained a friendship. How many rape victims continue to profess love for their rapist?"

    Argento and Weinstein dated for several years after. If this is the barometer for whether or not rape happened, then we can infer that Weinstein did not rape Argento.

    I can't even wrap my head around how some of you are seemingly defending this?

    ...well no shit, that had already been established. It was clearly a disparagement on the kid.

    Well, in regards to the kid, its irrelevant since it was statutory rape. Unless you don't believe in the concept of statutory rape and "as long as if they enjoy it, its not rape"?

    nobody is defending Argento...nobody is...that's not the topic of debate that's gone on here...they should arrest her right now...the conversation was about the kid..and in my case, putting myself in his shoes and seeing it from something other than a no means no rape case. do you have an opinion about it or would you rather just snark at people having the discussion? My contention is that the parents of this boy should have refused the buyout and had her arrested immediately after the event or the boy should have given his proclaimed trauma....and my view was that when I was a 17 year old, this would never have been the case...I would not have considered myself raped for sleeping consensually with a woman over 18....if folks have issue with that....so be it. Put it in perspective and have the conversation but calling people rape enablers is sensationalizing the whole topic here. Also I came into the discussion disclaiming that I knew enough to judge the kid...he could be truly a victim and she could very well be a pedophile...I don't know either of them or their work...I do have questions about the circumstances because the article raised flags for me. For some I'm sure it's a cut and dried rape case.

    So do you think that the Age of Consent should be lowered?
