So that's what the kids call these days.
I'd like to know if any of you ladies have had a close male friend who tried to take it a further by coming onto you?
How did you handle it?
This is what he gets for speaking the truth about the state of the minority.
According to some reports he's admitted it but says it was consensual. Her allegation is it was not.
Remember clinton "mentoring" Monica...
He was ministering to a troubled young girl
I love it when a lawyer denies an event took place even though he wasn't there.
Her family seems pretty wealthy to begin with. I doubt it.
Isn't this called a he said/she said situation?
Just about every woman I know has had at least one incident similar to this. I don't know anyone who has sued or talked to the press about it
As I said, there's a report he's admitted the physcial contact with her but says it was consensual.
Time will tell if that is correct or not. If you're asking me why he'd admit it, I can think of several reasons but I'd be speculating.
I was thinking about that and I guess it depends if some threat or coercian to keep it quiet was made. I know in my case pushing away and "stop" did the trick and never seeing that person again.
I have NOT heard that threat or coercian has been alleged in this case, at least to this point.
I'm thinking more of an "Anita Hill" scenario. Bill's gone off the plantation, so somebody is recruited to put him back in his place
Really? Then why did the MOTHER call Cosby, asking for money before any of this came out?
Pay attention, everybody: look whose doing the talking: the mother.
She didn't. According to Greta, the girl never said a word about it; she even called him up last summer or fall and asked him to "comp" some free tickets for her family when he was in Toronto, which he did.
The mother is the one who called Cosby and said she was so traumitzed, maybe he'd like to contribute to some educations funds.
BTW, the family DID pick up the tickets at the will call window.
Is there any truth to the rumors that when Bill Cosby entertains in Las Vegas he's very busy with "the ladies"?
The story keeps changing. I heard the story on tv that the girl had gone home with Cosby to his "mansion" and complained of not feeling well and was given some medication that made her feel out of control and that is when the touching happened. The mother is the one that called Cosby and made the complaint and asked for money and they were trying to keep the girl's name out of it. Nothing makes sense. Cosby wouldn't have to drug some woman to get her "touch him." The whole thing was consensual.
I think men would be amazed if they knew how frequently women get grabbed. It's probably just a small percentage of men out there who are doing the grabbing - but it's a very active small percentage.
This is not to say that I think Cosby did anything. Even if he did, so what. Forgetaboutit. If you can't forget then see a shrink.
A Canadian woman who accused Bill Cosby of drugging and groping her reportedly taped phone calls with him after she reported the offense.
Cosby initiated the calls, and they support her allegations, sources told the Philadelphia Daily News.
