According to this chart, yes.

I would also say that the reason this was mostly kept quiet for a long time was that Cosby sold a lot of laundry detergent in his day.
You read about a couple of dozen rapes and sexual assaults, and the victims being drugged by a man over decades, and all of the women are skanks to you?
I’m dealing with another one of those on the other thread. :o)
Young old, male, female, it's pretty much a human thing.
Where were their parents?
A question I have been asking on these threads for two weeks. I have not seen any 'response' in the media from any of the parents. Maybe back then letting a 15 year old girl go the Playboy Mansion with a 40 year old black man where sex was the main attraction was OK. (even though that's not how I remember 'the world' back then)
How old was Cosby?
How old were all the Hollwood Stars, Music Stars, football players (OJ), Corporate Executives, Politicos who regularly attended parties at the Playboy Mansion or Clubs ?
I'm betting that not a one of them was under 18. Many were not under 30.
What were the ages of the women at the Playboy Mansion/Club ? Or, maybe I should ask What is the upper limit on the age of the women that came to the club/mansion or hung out there all the time ?
Is it acceptable for the old to prey upon the young?
First, isn't that what the Playboy Club was all about ?
Of course it is unacceptable. Completely and totally.
But have you noticed, now that you are no longer a naive child, that it seems to be the way most of the world 'works' ?
Is this not what Sharpton, Jackson , etc. are doing with young blacks ? Using them, preying upon them, for illicit purposes ? So what if they are killed in the process or go to jail. Sharpton and Jackson make a 'killing' off their deaths. Comparatively, what Cosby did caused no lasting harm. I have not read of any of them women claiming anything like that. Only one claims he impregnated her, yet she refuses to allow her child to be DNA tested.
How many of these women were assaulted or raped at the Playboy mansion, 2 or 3?
The others happened in various cities and states.
So... what you are saying is that this wasn’t JUST Cosby taking advantage of these ‘aspiring actresses’, it was an entire INDUSTRY.
AND THAT has been my point all along. This was not done in a vacuum.
You are describing one single girl, who is 56 years old today, why don't you try to look up her parents and see if they are still alive?
There was a film from the late sixties called CANDY which was about two older men having sex with a I think fourteen year old.

Candy is a 1968 sex farce film directed by Christian Marquand based on the 1958 novel by Terry Southern and Mason Hoffenberg, from a screenplay by Buck Henry. The film satirizes pornographic stories through the adventures of its naive heroine, Candy, played by Ewa Aulin. It stars Marlon Brando, Ewa Aulin, Ringo Starr, John Huston and Enrico Maria Salerno. Popular figures such as Sugar Ray Robinson, Anita Pallenberg, and Florinda Bolkan appear in cameo roles.
High school student Candy (former Miss Teen Sweden Ewa Aulin) seemingly descends to Earth from space. In the relatively simple plot, she naively endures an escalating series of situations in which her oblivious allure triggers satirical porn-film-like encounters. Roger Ebert wrote, “Candy caroms from one man to another like a nympho in a pinball machine, and the characters she encounters are improbable enough to establish Terry Southern’s boredom with the conventions of pornography.”[3]
In school, her father (John Astin) is also her teacher. At a poetry recital, eccentric poet MacPhisto (Richard Burton) offers Candy a ride home in his limousine. At her home, MacPhisto drunkenly waxes boisterously poetic, arousing Candy and her gardener Emanuel (Ringo Starr) into sex. Scandalized, her family sends her to private school, where she embarks on a psychedelic journey during which she meets a number of strange people, including a sex-starved military general (Walter Matthau), a doctor who performs public operations (James Coburn), a hunchback (Charles Aznavour) and a fake Indian guru (Marlon Brando). As the film ends, she continues to cavort with other people plus some of the characters she met in the film, then returns to outer space.
You are confusing rape, with setting up a date.
BTW, here’s a link to the GUY who started up the recent furor over Cosby. If you are interested.

I don’t know if I’d say it was an entire industry. There are whole studios that never did business with him. But it was a crew of enablers who were looking out for their economic interests.
Good question. The story I was reading earlier only contained the ones who complained of it happening at the Playboy Mansion. There were at least 6. I'm still trying to find that particular article again.
Here is the most complete list I have seen so far.
A Complete List of the Women Who Have Accused Bill Cosby of Sexual Assault
Many of these, as you suggest, did not occur at the Playboy Club. However, most of them were 'aspiring actresses/models'. My guess would be that half of them 'knew' what was going on, the other half might have not.
Even if they didn't "KNOW", shouldn't their parents, or Talent Agents have KNOWN? Aren't they just as complicit ?
Because I am not a paid JOURNALIST. They have much better resources to accomplish that. Why have they not ?
On that list of 25, I think there is one who was assaulted at the Playboy mansion.
Goins isn’t on that list, but would make what, the second one?
According to this chart, yes.
Not me. You must be thinking of NOW or some other feminist organization that is claiming that all dating is rape.
You think slipping a date a mickey and her waking up to discover you raping her, is just dating?
And have you come up with a count for victims who were assaulted by Cosby in the Playboy mansion yet?
Him, yes. But there were, and are tons of others.
After all, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Bill Cosby that was molesting Corey Haim all those years.
As you already know, my comments applied to the women who DID go the Playboy Club. You want to discount my comments on them because it ruins your narrative on the rest ? Go ahead. Doesn't change anything.
The others were different locations, as you state. However, in each case, the women were willingly there. Aspiring actresses and models. One of them kept coming back for more for four months. Doesn't that seem odd to you ?
It's not that Cosby is not 'guilty' of sexual deviancy, imho. It's that these women put themselves into the situation, some innocently, some not. In some cases did he break the law? Likely. Should he be punished ? Sure. What about all the people who helped him or covered it up ? Are they not just as guilty ?
Again, my bottom line is why the sudden interest now ?
Those are your words, not mine.
