R., You Serious???

Ok, Let me just preface this blog by saying that I am NOT an R. Kelly basher. I love him as an entertainer and for his musical abilities BUT I think he's gone just a little off the wall.
After watching Jimmy Kimmel Live and seeing bits and pieces of the interview with Toure, I decided to check out the whole thing, or what was posted on www.youtube.com. Disappointed to say the LEAST! SMH(shaking my head)! This man was talking in circles. He sounded so confused and Toure's facial expressions were so hilarious. I probably would have made the same expressions if not worse LOL!
While watching this video this morning before work started, a co-worker walked past my desk, saw who was on the screen and backed up. A very interesting conversation came about, “when it comes to older men dating teenage girls, who’s to say what’s wrong and what is right,”? OHHHH BOY!!!!
I don’t know who determines if it is right or wrong but I think that it is outright NASTY for a let’s say 40 year old man to even think about a 14 year old girl in a sexual manner! YUCK!!!!! I mean what can a 40 year old man see in a young girl who is not of age?

The Co-worker’s arguments
1. Society has place a negative connotation on a man dating an underage girl but glorifies older women dating younger men.
2. Just because the female is 14 does not mean that she is not mature enough to date an older man
3. Age difference has nothing to do with how 2 people connect

My Responses
1. Cougar Dating(older women dating younger men), which is a new trend, is NOT illegal
2. 14 year old boy or girl is just that, a child. Children have no clue!
3. You tell me what a 40 year old and a 14 year old would have to talk about?

So who is to say it’s right or wrong? Does it matter how you grew up? Would it be different if the motive of the man was not solely based on taking advantage of a little girl?

Whatcha thinkin’????
