ABC News joined the
Mook parade by posting a
photo gallery last week celebrating celebrity men who lost their virginity "early." Among the celebrants:
+ Ike Turner, who lost his at the age of 6 to a "a middle-aged next-door neighbor named Miss Boozie."
+ Sean Connery, who remembers being 8, but "can't recall with whom."
+ Richard Pryor, who at age 5 was "seduced" by a seven-year-old girl.
+ River Phoenix, who at age 4 was encouraged to experiment with "God's gift of sex" by a cult to which his family belonged.
+ The rest were 13-15 and their "conquests" included neighbors, "chicks," and prostitutes.
Where I come from, what these men experienced is called rape, child abuse, and sexual exploitation. It's something to be mourned and healed, not glorified by a major news organization.
