“But to the extent that collective memory of the scandal had faded, the Epstein connection revives and deepens questions about the sexual morality and social judgment of a man who married his girlfriend’s adopted daughter and can count in his prolific, creative output a romantic comedy about a middle-aged writer’s involvement with a 17-year-old girl (to say nothing of his screenplay for “Annie Hall,’’ in which the Tony Roberts character jokes about having sex with 16-year old twins.)” NY Times.

If you are an older person but have sex with a 19 year old that’s okay, but what if you reduce the voting age to 16 like they just did in the UK, do 16 year old twins then become fair game? Whoopi Goldberg said that a certain Hollywood director didn’t commit Rape Rape on a 13 year old! Today the legal age for consent is 18 but what will it be tomorrow? Writing about it and doing it aren’t exactly the same thing!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!
