I like you Roland.  But this just seems silly to me.  I don't really have an opinion either way.  It is cringy, creepy, and awkward.  I guess I just don't get why the topic is such a lightning rod for so long.

Cringey creepy and awkward. Yeah that's about it. That's pretty much the whole point. That is your opinion, and it's a great summary of mine too.

I think it's a lightning rod because for someone to fail to see the creepy, cringey, awkwardness, is just...I dunno. I don't know what it says about a person to not grasp the creepiness of the whole situation but THAT is why this is a 41 page thread.
Because people think this is totally okay and it's mind boggling to the rest of us.

You keep sanitizing it. It wasn't just two adults. It was a man who knew her since she was a child, who is a family friend, speaking in a creepy manner to an employee.
It's weird and creepy.

I've seen this kind of thing go down in real life between boss and subordinate. It's shit for morale, and absolutely everyone involved (even if not directly involved) is worse when it inevitably comes crashing down. These types of things are *never* in private. It's the nature of fucking an employee or a friend's daughter.

It's creepy and stupid.

I was two adults, everyone here is turning it into more than that.  The story goes that she first saw him at 16, and then he hired her at 18 (at some point she says 17, but her IG post don't line up with that)  Then people keep on adding years to TB and taking away years from JS.  She's currently 21 and he's 51, though I have seen folks in this thread drop the age of the initial meeting to 15, and make a lot of innuendo about 14.  His age has elevated to 54.  If we keep going at this rate, they will have met at 5 when he was 60, having sleep overs at Neverland Ranch

I too have seen this thing go down in the past, and agreed, it can be shit for morale.  Hard to say that they are never in private, as the ones that successfully are in private you would never know about.  But honestly, I've seen success stories, horror stories and shit that just fizzled out on it's own.  If you don't read into any of this and take it at face value, this one seems to have fizzled out on it's own.  None of us has enough information to say otherwise, it's all speculation, including my observations!  Some of us will be right, some will be wrong and some just won't care.  IN this thread, I think will see all three's of those outcomes if any other info ever comes out.

Nobody made it more than that. Taran and the literally made it that. The facts so far:

1. Taran is a family friend
2. He started training her around 16
3. At 18 he immediately offered her a job
4. She is his employee
5. He says weird sexual stuff to her

Those are the facts. The last fact:

6. Point 1-5 add up to Taran being a creepy motherfucker.

Nope, no issues, just don't see where being a creep makes you wrong when he is 50% of the equation.
I highly doubt he was the first person to say creepy stuff to her, as her creepy responses make it clear she's played that game before.  Do you think she'd be acting any differently in that video if it was a 20 year old saying the same shit?  A 30 year old?  Again, tons of people have been around them for the last few years and no scandals, no interventions, nor tabloid articles about bad behavior.  Seems like everything was just fine and honky dory until their private video was exposed without permission.
Employer/employee relationships are a bad idea, but they literally happen everywhere on this planet.  A bunch are successful, a bunch are not and most leave no damage in their wake.    Some dudes are weak and can't handle the temptation of grabbing onto the forbidden fruit.  He wasn't the first and won't be the last.  As I have mentioned before, he'll be fine, she'll be fine and we'll be fine.  We caught a glimpse of adults doing adult stuff.  It's not to everyone's liking, but it's their business, not ours.  
Maybe JS will be so enamored by TB's ex-media guy that she'll jump onto his horse and they'll ride into the sunset...he will have saved her from the evils of men.  Actually, that dude probably won't be fine...

Those are the facts. The last fact:

6. Point 1-5 add up to Taran being a creepy motherfucker.

If you don't comprehend that then you have issues.
Nope, no issues, just don't see where being a creep makes you wrong when he is 50% of the equation.
I highly doubt he was the first person to say creepy stuff to her, as her creepy responses make it clear she's played that game before.  Do you think she'd be acting any differently in that video if it was a 20 year old saying the same shit?  A 30 year old?  Again, tons of people have been around them for the last few years and no scandals, no interventions, nor tabloid articles about bad behavior.  Seems like everything was just fine and honky dory until their private video was exposed without permission.
Employer/employee relationships are a bad idea, but they literally happen everywhere on this planet.  A bunch are successful, a bunch are not and most leave no damage in their wake.    Some dudes are weak and can't handle the temptation of grabbing onto the forbidden fruit.  He wasn't the first and won't be the last.  As I have mentioned before, he'll be fine, she'll be fine and we'll be fine.  We caught a glimpse of adults doing adult stuff.  It's not to everyone's liking, but it's their business, not ours.  
Maybe JS will be so enamored by TB's ex-media guy that she'll jump onto his horse and they'll ride into the sunset...he will have saved her from the evils of men.  Actually, that dude probably won't be fine...  
So because other people have probably done it that makes it okay? Because there's a lot of shitty managers and leaders that do it that makes it okay?

And yes, the things he was saying would be creepy coming from anyone, the points I noted above just add to the creepy factor.

Didn't your mom ever ask you if all your friends jumped off a bridge would you do it too?

At any rate, I guess you at least now admit it's creepy. You just don't have a problem with creepy.

I like you Roland.  But this just seems silly to me.  I don't really have an opinion either way.  It is cringy, creepy, and awkward.  I guess I just don't get why the topic is such a lightning rod for so long.

We can discuss Virginia.  Or beans in chili.  Or M4 feed ramps.  Or some other topic that has been beat to death for months and years.

Taran's situation might be made-up drama, but at least it's new.
