      I hope no woman has to ever come within 10 metres of you.

            Its not a win. It’s pointing out how stupid the above comment is, suggesting I’m some sort of sex offender because I’m not clutching my pearls that an artist in another time was an asshole to his partners.

        Why though? Honest question. I don’t understand those downvotes either.

        This is a dead guy, from a time with very different morality to what we have today. The quote suggests he was an excessive womanizer, probably an asshole too.

        Within the range of depravity that seems very tame for for the time period. No raping, no murdering, “just” a selfish dick who enjoys women and then moves on to the next when they are no longer interesting, that seems somewhat normal for (famous) artists in general.

        I do however repeat that I just learned about this from these comments and have not read further on the matter than what is quoted here, so my interpretation may be incomplete. And there is also the weird suicides thing.

          Mentally torturing someone isn’t even normal for the time to the point that it leads to the person committing suicide.

          Either you’re a troll or a prick.

            I have said in every fucking comment that I HAVE NOT READ UP ON THE SUBJECT AND AM EXCLUSIVELY REFERRING TO WHAT HAS BEEN QUOTED IN THIS THREAD.

            And the quote doesn’t say that he tortured women to suicide, it says some of his partners killed themselves. And I both times mentioned that as peculiar, as in, if truly a result of his deliberate actions, it would reframe my interpretation.

            This site is worse than reddit with the virtue signaling, holy shit. So many people telling me what an asshole I am, yet nobody is providing information that would prove them right.
