And note that it says he met her at 16, not that he fricked her.

And from the article she seems much more concerned about her influence on his work.

Brother, go get your testosterone levels checked. Another man’s bad decisions decades ago have nothing to do with you and should not be causing you to feel emotions.

yep, according to the score sheets he had 175 women on his first US tour, and didn’t he marry some chick who had a mother that was younger than his daughter? or something like that?

UN fricking believable.

How can anyone be so cruel to a foster child?

He’s a scumbag cock sucker that deserves a prolapsed colon.

It's obvious he's a weirdo, this is no surprise.

Is this legit, or was Trump considering him for a cabinet post?

His ex-wife created an account on Tigerdroppings to confront TylerDurden several years back.

Thread on the Georgia Board about it

had a relationship with a girl he met when he was 42 and she was 16,


What does this mean? Did he bang her the day he met her? Did they ever have sex? If so, was it 10 years after they met?

Back in the day, a 16 year old marrying an older man was not uncommon. Marilyn Monroe got married to an older man when she was 16. Did Cormac marry this girl at 16?

If you are going to imply that someone was banging children, especially someone deceased who can't defend themselves, I think we need something more than he had a 'relationship' at some point with a girl he first met when she was 16.

Started when he was 42 ended when he died at 89. So the relationship lasted 47 years, she would have been in hers 60s

I know you think you got him, but Cormac McCarthy was an extraordinary writer.

The real point here is that creative people are odd. That’s all.
