Basically this whore was in his “band.” Far as I can tell the bandmembers would send each other dirty pictures and videos, not of themselves but of random stuff on interwebs.

Basically the same crap I do with my friends on group texts all day.

This chick decides that is rape.

The #metoo thing has jumped the shark with this and the aziz nonsense

He specifically sent her material and then when she asked him not to. He asked her to change her appearance.

While I found his performance awesome. The dude comes off as a complete douche via the screenshots that are on the internet.

There was always this danger - equating boorish, rude, even inappropriate behavior (for a rock band, though?) with actual, quid pro quo sexual harassment and, even more serious, sexual assault and violence.

I think it's like a Pandora's Box, at least partially with good intentions at the onset, but ultimately, I think it is the same old game, allowing the offense industry to define just what is and is not acceptable (see MSM treatment of allegations against Clinton and Trump, for example).

If she had a problem with it she should have said something about it then.

If she was afraid to speak up for herself that's her problem, not his.

Snowboarders are trash thugs who scrape all the good snow off the god damn mountain because they don’t know how to go tips first and should all be banned from the resorts.

The Flying Tomato has quite the reputation around Aspen. There aren't many hotel rooms in town his group hasn't trashed.

No. But it will be why more and more men will decide it's not worth it to include women in anything. From all indications this woman was in a band with a bunch of guys. Presumably they were friends. So the guys do WHAT EVERY GROUP OF GUY FRIENDS DO, and text, discuss, etc. vulgar and topics of a sexual nature. The woman is included in these conversations because, get this, SHE'S BEING TREATED AS ONE OF THEIR EQUALS. They aren't treating her differently because she's a female. Just the opposite, they are treating her just as they would their male friends.

The longer this narrative goes the more ridiculous the claims will become. Here's a secret...women don't really want true "equality." They want preferential equality.

Sure, a lot of the surfer/skater/snowboard Bros are. Doesn't mean it's sexual harrasment or rape though.

She did do that. She should him via text that she just wanted to talk about things related to the band/music. White then turned around and canceled payment for every single bandmember. Then reinstated payment for every besides her.

You are aware that rape and sexual harassment aren't the same thing, right?

I never said it was rape.

Honestly, White comes off like a douche throughout the entire thing. If I text repeatedly text you something that makes you uncomfortable and it slowly evolves into me suspending your pay. I think you pretty much have one option as far as handling things in civilized way.

ABC News led with the story this morning. The reporter was very sanctimonious in questioning White about the allegations during White's post medal news conference. White tried to brush it off and say "he was there to talk about the Olympics"

Cut back to reporter talking to the reporter that originally broke the story, who says "he doesn't get to decide what to talk about!"

I'm pretty sure that's one of the things he absolutely has control over.

It's pretty well know that White is a dickhead.
