And he was an easy target, as he was in the public eye, and working with children on a beloved long running show handling one of the biggest characters, and his sexuality not commonly known, I can see how someone decided to go after his money. Victims don't go to Sesame Street unless they were victimized on the show. They don't take large settlement offers. They go to the police. And to those who say he should be fired, for what? Remember that sometimes the accused are truly innocent. Just keep an open mind and wait, there are always two sides to every story.

It sounds to me more like a disgruntled ex than an abused person. A friend of a friend kicked her husband out & is acting like a petulant child. If he was abused, throw the book at his abuser, but if this is an extortion attempt, throw the book at the extorter. No matter the it come, even if he is found innocent, he will be forever tarnished in the eyes of some people.<br />I also wholeheartedly agree with the poster who mentioned the sexualisation of children and young people. Trying to find shorts for my friend's daughter that didn't look like she would be standing on a street corner later was almost impossible. What scares me is they wouldn't make these clothes if they didn't sell, who the hell is buying this stuff?feraltarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05806620230863318926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-31523616588353123642012-11-12T12:32:04.145-08:002012-11-12T12:32:04.145-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Coriander Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01287068367035944712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-86431971565494051002012-11-12T11:01:18.436-08:002012-11-12T11:01:18.436-08:00Sixteen and seventeen year olds aren't childre...Sixteen and seventeen year olds aren't children, and that's the dilemma we face when trying to decide what's wrong about this and how wrong it is. They're at a stage where they're allowed to make their first few steps into adulthood (driving, working) and to treat them as children utterly unable to understand or voluntarily enter into sexual relationships isn't entirely accurate. They, like everyone else regardless of age, are entitled to be protected from predators. It's when they decide to indulge their curiosity about sex that it gets so iffy. <br /><br />If this guy had sex with a minor, he deserves to suffer the consequences. If the relationship was consensual, meaning there was no force or coercion used on the kid, then odds are very good that the kid will not suffer lasting emotional harm from the relationship. It will be a bad relationship, but not necessarily an abusive one in terms of damage. <br /><br />Whether or not the kid's allegations are true, Elmo dude was an utter fool to enter into a relationship with someone that young. Even eighteen was way, way too young for him. It looks creepy as hell. <br /><br />Anybody remember the Frugal Gourmet? His career was ruined after seven men came forward alleging he'd molested them when they were minors. They had all kinds of people lined up to testify on their behalf, so the case was settled before it went to trial. That killed the Frugal Gourmet's tv career.Squeezeboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03244917698995531705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-32766503923933279192012-11-12T10:58:15.644-08:002012-11-12T10:58:15.644-08:00CarmeliteLady - with all due respect, please read ...CarmeliteLady - with all due respect, please read the comments before your post, and think about what you just wrote.

I really feel nauseous. If you're gay and you like young looking/feminine/bieberish guys there's nothing wrong with that, as long as they're 18 +, just stop going for childen you sick fucks! 18- is a child. This just proves that anyone who works with kids should be suspect. Everyone in kids/preteen showbiz should be thoroughly background checked and fired if there's any impropriety. Ruining children's lives with sexual misconduct is never ok, and should never be covered up. Jesus Christ protect the children.

You will be told that it doesn't matter what it says in the "psychology dictionary." :-/<br /><br />Also, gay doesn't equal pedophilia, and pedophilia doesn't equal gay. (Which, of course, is beside the point, because even if true, this isn't pedophilia.) When will folks figure this out? It's 2012!

I really really hope this isn't true.<br /><br />And BTW, pedophilia refers to people who are attracted to <b>prepubescent children</b>, i.e., kids who are under 13 and who haven't started puberty yet (no pubic hair, etc.). Can we stop throwing the term around when it doesn't actually apply?chopchophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701122427025181799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-48771114338688134462012-11-12T09:39:53.773-08:002012-11-12T09:39:53.773-08:00I watch the documentary about him.

The accuser in this case, is not claiming that he didn't consent to it; he's just saying that the relationship started before he was 18. I'm not saying it's okay for someone to be having sex with a 16 year old, but I think that a lot of people here are really mis-using the word "pedophile." It is dangerous to be so free and loose throwing that word around.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08190671251355854909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-57735086876120506532012-11-12T09:25:00.954-08:002012-11-12T09:25:00.954-08:00It both saddens and angers me, at some CADN'er...It both saddens and angers me, at some CADN'ers immediate willingness to label this man a pedophile, simply because he's gay. STOP with the Sandusky comparisons. Sixteen, while age inappropriate for a 46 yr old, in my opinion, is not a child. If this were a 46 year old man and a sixteen year old girl, I don't think these terms would be thrown about so easily.

I think he's a puppeteer who is great with very small kids, but likes sex with young men or teens in his spare time. Just like the Wall Street guy with the same tastes, or the janitor, or the restaurateur...you get my point. I think his job has little to do with it.<br />It's not right at all, but I think it's much more accepted than pedophilia. These guys are encouraged by many industries, advertising, and society at large. <br /><br />It's not just here--look at Japan, or South Korea, where girls get surgery to look cuter and more doll-like; younger.<br />People having those fantasies about underage teens aren't being told they're wrong, period.
