Mande's a dumb b*tch. She subtracts from the sum total of human knowledge. She's worse than her jefe when it comes to fact-free posts. Hopefully her family has money so she won't be a burden on society by qualifying for social security disability. There’s only one issue here, and there’s no denying this one. Mande’s a dumb b*tch.

Some of you need to read up on Polanski and then watch the movie. Mande, can’t tell her last name, she would kill me…(another controversial sin)
Rosi, I’m with you.
Some of you need to read up on Polanski and then watch the movie.

I was 16 in 1977, and if Roman Polanski had given me champagne and Quaaludes, I would have LET him rape me. In fact, he could have cornholed me nine ways to Sunday. I'm sick and tired of you Shi'ite Baptist assholes trying to tell the rest of us what fun is. And it sure as hell isn't a Wednesday night prayer meeting with a visit to Shoney's to top off all THAT excitement. P.S.

I don't know why a smart person like Mande -- who loves big words and everything -- could not have informed us of this very important fact.

She was 13 so what?" "Pedophilia, that's silly." You are just as sick an individual as any PEDOPHILE could be, because, like Mande, you think it's a trivia issue. Polanski's crime is even remotely forgivable because the girls parents are solely to blame? The child is to blame because her parents had her working as a model and she was in the wrong place at the wrong time? I've will not argue this point anymore with you. It's pointless to argue with crazy people anyway. Seek help. If you can, don't respond to my posts anymore. You give me the creeps and make my skin crawl. Catherine,

So your comparison is flawed from the start, and becomes outright embarrassing when you consider the inconvenient fact that Polanski's victim was drugged and violated in every conceivable manner against her will. I must have missed the part where Johnny slipped Baby a qualude and some champagne before forcing himself upon her while she begged him to stop. The most incredible part of the post is that you could even think to describe Polanski's conduct as "seduc[ing] a teenager." By your logic, Osama was just redeveloping some real estate on 9/11, right?

You contribute quite a few articles on your Blog with controversial titles meant to grab attention in hopes that people will respond. I call this the Madonna effect. Is your intent to serve a societal function or fullfill a personal need? The view point you present in your articles do not provide the profound insight that stir and stimulate the imagination into producing an inspirational response as proven by the elementary and simplistic responses you've received so far. Try to get beyond the 'whore' tactics you apply and try and put something out there that is truley insightful and stimulating. Mande, true education and wisdom comes with life experience.

She was wasn't a 'Baby'. That's the missing element. She was grown and independant, going off to college and the Peace Corp. Although, her parents accepted this on an intellectual level, they didn't accept their daughter was grown up on an emotional level. Johnny couldn't accept he was worthy in an upper class society. The movie's poignant plot was everyone coming of age. Baby wasn't thirteen, but a mature girl 'who's real name was Francis' ready to make her own decisions about her life and that included her choice of seducing Johnny. Sorry boys... Girls didn't we all want to seduce a Johnny, it didn't make us victims, it made us in charge our of own well being - big difference from being taken advantage of with drugs, sex and debauchery.
