Happy Face 29 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 He liked 16 - 18 year old girls. What's your issue? Impregnated a 16 year old while in his mid 30s. I know grass on the pitch, boulders in the holders, it's not exactly paedogeddon, but still a bit unsavoury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013   Aye he got her pregnant after they were married.   There's some dispute. Either way, not for the want of trying sooner....  She was a youthful, carefree and beautiful actress but at 16 should have been off-limits. Eager to increase her career, Harris promoted a friendship with Chaplin which soon turned into a casual fling. They had been dating a few months when Harris announced she was pregnant but this was found to be a false alarm. However, the damage was still done and to reverse the burgeoning scandal, Chaplin impulsively married the young girl on October 23, 1918. Thankfully so, as it was found Harris – now Mrs. Chaplin – had become pregnant with his first child, a son, Norman Spencer Chaplin,  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 It wasn't even Mildred Harris I had read about. Assumed it was because when i double checked the name to find she was 16 and had a pregnancy scandal with Chaplin. Â But no, it was Lita Grey. Another one of his perverted daliances which forced him into marriage with a girl he didn't even like... Â Â In 1924, when she was 16 years old, she suspected she had become pregnant by Charlie Chaplin, who was then 35. Chaplin, who could have been imprisoned for having sexual relations with a minor, married her in secret in Empalme, Sonora, Mexico to avoid a scandal.

Park Life 71 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Woody Allen would be a better case in point. It's in a modern context. But should we throw all his films away? What about Greek philosophy (they were all banging 12yr old boys)...In the bin? The whole of western civilisation is built on death and sex... We know power and fame corrupts the mind...

Â Is there evidence of a relationship between Allen and anyone under 20? Â Still distasteful that he was 3 times Soon Yi's age when they got together and does taint his work somewhat. But that relationship is 23 years old now. Unlike the case of Chaplin who despised the girls as he married them to avoid scandal. Â The 12 year old boys example is lost on me. Are you defending that sort of thing too? I guess not. Â The Dude: Fuckin' Quintana... that creep can roll, man. Walter Sobchak: Yeah, but he's a pervert, Dude. The Dude: Yeah.

Unlike the case of Chaplin who despised the girls as he married them to avoid scandal. Sorry to break it to you but a lot of these famous people are deeply flawed characters. Martin Luther King and his prostitutes, Gandhi was really nasty to his wife. Psychologists have been ruminating on the particular kind of ego that drives successful people and it ain't pretty...The Woody Alllen thing is a real shame and clearly not appropriate but hey what can we really say about it all...It's everywhere...Brands are more or less using children as sexual imagery - Gap, H&M and so on...Lee jeans ads come to mind from a few years back..

David Kelly 1245 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 What age is acceptable then? My ex was nineteen when I started seeing her and I was thrity three. Obviously there's nothing illegal about it but is it in bad taste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
