    wheelchair-bound

    Dude was fully paralyzed. Come one. Are you really that desperate to attack someone? Guy is asking a valid question.

      Then how did he have an affair?

      Is power itself not enough to coerce someone, you’re saying it has to be physical coercion? That would undo a lot of what we know about sexual assault.

      I’m certainly not saying he did it, but “he’s paralyzed” is not a good enough defense.

        Its not a defense its a line of inquiry. Why do you think people asking what he’s accused of are defending him? That doesn’t make sense.

          Stephen Hawking reportedly loved strippers. His being paralyzed doesn’t/didn’t preclude sexual interests, nor untoward sexual pursuits, particularly given his status and presence in the fucking Epstein files.
