Yea but Louis asked if he could before he did it.

Asking people who are trying to get into the industry and we're around him as a major movie star? That kind of asking? That's not consent. Just like your boss walking into the meeting room and asking if he can jack off in front of you is not consent.

I’m just stating facts. I was not speaking to the morality of it. Now that you are, yes, I agree what Louis did was wrong even though he asked.

If my boss asks to jack off in front of me all I can see is lawsuit money, so go to town boss.

Because he was in a position of power over those women and used that.

Hey, I’m not saying it was right. I’m just stating what Louis said.

Oh yeah, I agree it's a different thing so shouldn't be grouped together the way OP did but they're both the same charge

This is just me but if I'm hanging out with a famous comedian and he asks off the cuff to jerk off in front of me, I'd probably think he was joking.

And at least one of the women is on record saying he did not ask, he just did it.

That’s pretty scummy of those women.

I wouldn’t say that. In my opinion what Louis did was not right. People can say “yes” out of fear and intimidation. It happens all the time. We don’t know all the facts and likely never will, but what Louis did doesn’t pass the smell test.

No the fuck it isnt lmao. He was one of the biggest comics in the world in a major position to make their careers better or worse depending on the answer to his “question”. The fuck is wrong with you?

I thought Louis was doing it while on the phone with them, and asked beforehand?

It was not on the phone, and beforehand meant as they walked into the back room at a club, WHICH IS THEIR WORKPLACE. Who the fuck thinks it's OK to ask people this, let alone people whose careers you can affect, let alone AT WORK?
