She’s getting money, he’s getting ... something. (sex? youthful energy? sight of beauty?) As long as it’s legal, it’s a fair exchange.
Or do you object to young women (and otherwise beautiful men and women) acting in movies and things like Victoria’s Secret shows as well (well, you could object on the “encouraging body image problems” angle but that’s orthogonal).
- crispyambulance 7y agoThe fact that some of the women in the lab suspected a human-trafficing situation and try to get the girls to open up about it makes NOT LIKE a scenario where some guy merely has a penchant for younger girl-friends. And anyway, if it were some kind of "fair exchange", WTF is going through his mind to bring that "entourage" to a place like the media lab. It sounds like a script to a Sacha Baron Cohen film.
- topmonk 7y agoWhy? What makes you hold these women up as such good judges of character? It sounds like it could be just typical office gossip/jealousy to me.
- PaulHoule 7y agoIt is not so unusual to have a trophy wife, it is the trophy harem that goes against Western culture. Also it is highly unusual for somebody to show up at an academic event with even a trophy wife in tow. As for the VS fashion show you do know that Epstein had some kind of hold on the CEO of their parent company, he harassed women under the pretense he was a talent scout for them and plausibly could have abused the models.
