and that is that men who most would consider attractive (to one degree or another) would behave as he obviously has. Maybe he is every bit the malignant narcissist as Trump but from this altitude, Epstein's issues seem different. Obviously, he has an obsession with acquiring and asserting power... But that is not uncommon enough on its own to explain it.

That the reason men target females below 18 years is that a lot of males sincerely believe they are OWED sex by females. Especially if they did not get sex in their teenage or college years. They are around a bunch of other guys who are having either having sex or claiming they are having sex with girls and they are not. It creates anger and resentment in their minds, to wit. "She is doing it with him, but not me, I'll show her." Her being another female.

The fact is American males are sexualized by looking at pictures of young women in soft and hardcore pornography, Sports Illustrated, and other magazines aimed at males. They do not show older women.

late teens and early twenties, I thought women owed me sex. And I can say that yes, it was jealousy on my part that I wasn’t getting laid and my peers were. Once I disposed of that poisonous attitude and started treating women as people, I was much more successful in finding girlfriends. Turns out women aren’t attracted to jealous, misogynistic, incels.

You aren't saying that you are surprised that an attractive man would be a rapist, right?

I'm a little confused by what you are saying.

Epstein's chin is all Dick Van Dyke.

Bakula’s face looks kind and is the wrong shape.

Been bingeing on NCIS-NOLA lately. Mostly enjoying it.

But yeah, there is a resemblance.
