The woman was of legal age. People are more embarrassed by his stupidity at beating off on a webcam and not realising that it was very likely to end up in the wrong hands (so to speak)

The "woman" was a barely legal girl - and iterating her "womanhood" compared to this grandfather makes metal fanboys sink into ever further embarrassment. It delegitimises the metal scene, perhaps for the best.

I fully support Mustaine booting him. I wouldn't want someone with poor judgement like that in my band.

Diana Chavdarova After the story got out the girl released a post about how she did consent and was the one to initiate it. So why would you want to take agency away from her?

Diana Chavdarova at 19, a person can vote, own a fire arm, get married, join the military, be in their 2nd+ year at a university, and go to prison. But a relationship is somehow "barely legal girl"

Dave Deth You must be quite naive to presume she wasn't threatened or coerced to make the statement which would supposedly exonerate the "gentleman". But I can't blame you - nobody is obliged to sink deep enough to explore these "metal gods"' mindsets.
I, however, have - and, the sexually inadequate, infantile men that they are (Greg Puciato aptly said that the metal scene consists of men who haven't transitioned from boyhood to manhood), and I know they actively groom fans, and things quickly turn sinister.
The victim will then do what's asked of her.
Regarding "agency", if this wasn't a clear power dynamic ("star" - fanatic), I don't think I'd object to a young girl shagging in old man.

P.S. With regard to "womanhood":
Tipton here, for example, is known to refer to his fans as "kids". Here he is meeting a 19 yo whom he called "my pretty girl", but proceeded to hug and kiss her. She was so enamoured, he already being her idol, that she considered finding where he lives and paying him a visit.
This is the "normal" dynamic...

Diana Chavdarova do you really think this only applies to metal, that’s a big part of show-business, music, film, every big name can be a monster, Cosby comes to mind right away…
