One could almost swap Epstein and Maxwell out for Hugh Heffner imo. Most of these have fame, power and money in common, not that it doesn't happen to others but the big ones we hear about are these of course.
The woman who said she was naive and not worldly is one point and then of course we have to add the coercion or grooming over time while simultaneously maybe enjoying the lifestyle.
Yeah Masterson periodically comes in and out of the news. Even though it has coverage, it sometimes doesn't seem like as much as it should have. There are many like Cosby, Weinstein and more. Matt Lauer. All are different of course, no two cases are alike, they may be rape, years back, recent, sexual harassment...
One may as well liken Playboy to the casting couch in Hollywood. If you say no, you are pretty much dead as an actress or done for in one way or another. But it launches careers and they have a nice lifestyle... And the way people and media and probably other big wigs glamorized Playboy, bunnies, and used thoughts like empowerment, freedom of expression and speech, etc. always sickened me but the image was so entrenched...
Early, not much coffee or time, only read the Playboy article skimming. A lot of conversation could be had and points made but things like these are by nature different than being raped in a back alley by a stranger. Again it comes down to coercion, grooming and the term coercive control is starting to take root and one hears it more these days.
