Most sex workers are women, so it tracks

You're like a child that wandered into the middle of a wizard battle and wants to know...

Haha yeah, it's kind of funny but definitely creates a conflict so that's good for storytelling. Plus un-restrained capitalism is so toxic it probably still would create scarcity somehow 😂 magic capitalism, who knows wtf they would be capable of.

I have looked into this, he is certainly not a serial pedophile or serial rapist by any stretch. The single account that seems credible does not feel that she herself is a victim. The only other person with an account that paints him as any sort of predator is basically regarded as not credible, from what I've read. Any accusation will make a celebrity problematic to a certain extent of course, my instinct is always to side with a victim telling their story, but I don't feel that bad about enjoying his music given the nature of the accusations. As contrasted by basically every time I hear a Michael Jackson song at this point.

His personal beliefs and actions aside, he did some real good for queer folk, so at least there is some kind of positive to associate. I'll reiterate though that it is very unfortunate that there is an accusation at all and I certainly take it into consideration when listening now.

*Edited in some additional context and put "serial" before the word "rapist"

Magic exists, capitalism still creates scarcity, somehow...
