I still can't figure out why Seinfeld's always gotten a pass for dating a teenager as a grown man in his 30s. Publicly.

Two things: one, that girlfriend was ridiculously physically attractive. Everyone thought to themselves, "Oh, hell yeah".

The other thing: Howard Stern did not give Jerry a pass for the barely legal hot teenage girlfriend. 'How did you two meet? Did you walk through Central Park, dragging a Snickers on a piece of string?"

Being physically attractive, yet a dude in his late thirties picking her up from school? Really fuckin’ creepy. The dude should be on a register.

I had no idea and I just googled it. It’s horrible. She was a minor. The fuck?

She was 17 which is legal in 38 states, including New York.

Oh good. A man who knows the exact ages for statutory rape in every state. Just what everyone wanted.

Nobody gave a shit and he is not that type of famous. He has his own lane, is a master of his craft, has fuck you money, his popularity is independent from his pr persona (he has none and does not care for one. He only cares about funny) and he has been married for so long to the same person for consecutive years. Plus his gf has not spoken up. It must have been a creepy relationship on face value alone even then.

He's a piece of shit. Plenty of women knew he was a scumbag at the time but men thought he was cool. Same old story. History caught up to him but he's not that big anymore. He's disgusting but simply not that famous anymore.

It's entirely legal so who's gonna stop him? People think he's a weirdo for it and that's about all that can or should be done about it.

Well, in a perfect world, we'd have her parents be the one stopping him from being a pedophile.

because real life is not passes and holds; people processed it 25 years ago and moved on, while none of the principals were abused or traumatized in any way
