SCREAM QUEENS: Tavi Gevinson's (Fictional) Student-Teacher Affair

Previously, we wrote a post about Rookie, Tavi Gevinson's teen magazine, and the piece "Older Men: Everything you always wanted to know about them, and weren’t at all afraid to ask" where it was shared: “First, being attracted to older guys is completely and totally normal.”

And on The Cut, Tavi shared some details about her non-fiction age-gap sexual affair that she had when she was 18 with a much older man. For example, she shared:

When I entered the world of adult men as an 18-year-old, I was aware that I’d been granted access, visibility, and currency through my whiteness, thinness, cis-ness [...] as well as my social status. I could not reconcile my awareness of my power — and all the safety it promised — with the idea that I was also vulnerable in any way.

But I failed to write about Tavi's fictional age-gap affair on Fox's Scream Queens with Mr. Munch - her character's much older Wallace University college professor.

On the episode "Beware of Young Girls", Feather McCarthy (Tavi Gevinson), a (former) member of Wallace's Kappa Kappa Tau sorority shared: 

"It was two years ago that I met her husband [i.e., Wallace's Dean Munch] Dr. Munch and we sort of became involved. He was my Beatles 101 professor."

Before the student and professor kissed, the professor told his student: "I love how you challenge me in the classroom." And Feather shared: 

"I mean he wasn't really attractive - at all. But, I mean, he was the Beatles 101 professor; so, we started having sex. Not all the time. He was in his mid-50s; so, he could only get it up, like, once or twice per week." 

But unsurprisingly, the age-gap affair ended abruptly after professor Munch informed his wife, while holding Feather's hand, "Kathy. I want a divorce. Heather and I are in love."

One would imagine that Gevinson would agree that Feather had the power in her relationship with professor Munch and that their (fictional) affair exemplifies that an older man, by default of his age, does not possess all the power in an age-gap relationship but that it depends on the individual (i.e., sometimes the old(er) man possesses the power and sometimes the young(er) woman does).

Interestingly, per Entertainment's "The Real Story Behind Tonight's Scream Queens: "Beware of Young Girls", the title of the episode, "Beware of Young Girls", comes from a song written by Dory Previn - Andre Previn's wife. The song is based on Andre's age-gap affair with Mia Farrow. 

Piper Rockelle & Coco Quinn: Self-Sexualized or Sexualized Bikini Teens?

Chelsea Hirsch posted on Page Six "14-year-old YouTuber responds to Pink’s criticism of her bikini photos" (September 1, 2021). In the post, Hirsch related the Pink opined that Piper Rockelle, a 14-year-old bikini clad influencer, is being exploited by her parents:

“How many kids like Piper Rockelle are being exploited by their parents? And at what point do the rest of us say … ‘this isn’t okay for a 13 yr old to be posing in a bikini whilst her MOTHER takes the photo?!?!'” 

14-Year-Old Piper Rockelle

However, Piper responded by sharing that she is living her nymphet bikini clad dream:

“The first thing I want everyone to know is that my mom doesn’t make me do anything. Quite the opposite,” Rockelle told TMZ Tuesday. “I’m a kid who had a dream, and my mom is amazing enough to help me live it out.

“I don’t think Pink has ever seen one of my YouTube videos because if she did, she’d see it’s just my friends and me having fun and acting like ourselves,” she added. “The content we make is the kind of stuff anyone can watch.”

But Fully Vaxxed Girl agreed with Pink and posted on Twitter that Piper is being sexualized:

“OMG! Had to google her, the sexualized pictures of her in Google are horrifying! I did a double take of her age 13???And her mother takes these pictures of her?? 

13-Year-Old Coco Quinn

And @CherylNapoli asked on Twitter: "And have you seen [13-year-old] Coco Quinn?!?! Equally as appalling."

However, @MaestraObrien agreed with Piper by posting that taking a picture of a child in a bikini is appropriate: “I haven’t seen anything inappropriate. Is taking a picture of your child in a bikini inappropriate?!?”

In the end, the most controversial issue raised by Piper is that she's of the (controversial) opinion that a nymphet (twerking) in a bikini is not sexual - unless you view her sexually:

“Why do we shame people for that? Pictures of teenagers in bikinis having fun are not sexual. They’re only sexual if you view us that way.”

GOSSIP GIRL (2021): Heterosexual Age-Gap Affairs & Schoolgirl Lipstick Lesbians

In addition to the (heterosexual) teen analingus, fellatio, and sex, in the 2021 Gossip Girl reboot (Season 1 Part 1), nympholepsy and heterosexual age-gap affairs are portrayed. 

For example, on episode 3, Lies Wide Shut, we learn that George, Reema's husband, was abruptly fired from his job, because George knew that his boss, a father at Constance Billard [High] School, expensed escorts. And Wendy, a teacher at Constance Billard and Reema's co-worker, discovered that, "One of the escorts he hired was a senior at Constance."

Thus, like the teen prostitutes in the wealthy district of Rome, at least one senior at Constance worked as a paid escort. 

Interestingly, in episode 4, Fire Walks With Z, Julien, a junior at Constance, receives a number of Venmo payment alerts on her iPhone. 

"You're being Venmoed for BJs, HJs, poppers, urine, your celebrity fleshlight, and "seven grams of better coke than the last batch," Luna informs Julien. 

Although, the Venmo payments for teen blowjobs, handjobs and urine, were part of a prank from Zoya, a Constance sophomore and Julien's half-sister, in the context of the teen escort(s) at Constance, the prank is revealing.

Julien may have been pranked, but after she shared with the club in Lies Wide Shut, "I'm in my underwear on the Daily Mail." She tells Max, "We'll WhatsApp that to Timothée." But then she thought about the possible repercussions of sexting 25-year-old Timothée a picture of a first semester prep school junior in her panties. "Actually, don't. You'll get arrested. 

(IRL, even though Timothée didn't request the picture, he would have possibly been canceled, and Julien would have been consoled.)

In episode 5, Hope Sinks, Emily, another Constance junior, shares with Aki, her schoolmate and boyfriend, that a middle-aged celebrity is giving her "the eye": 

"Please hurry, because whoever is dressed as Bruce Willis has been giving me the eye for a half hour. That is Bruce Willis. Hurry faster."

I wonder why the writer's choose Bruce Willis and not someone like Jerry Seinfeld or Leonardo DiCaprio. 

And in Hope Sinks, Zoya is seduced by Simon, a New York magazine reporter, because he suspects that Zoya is Gossip Girl. Jessica Goldstein wrote to Simon on Vulture in her Gossip Girl Week 5 Report Card": 

"Stalking, flirting with, and lying to a child (Zoya is 15!) for your article is gross [...]"

The Gossip Girl reboot appears to be (mostly) aimed at (young) women and non-heteronormativity viewers, but, arguably, the teen (lipstick) lesbian kissing scene in Lies Wide Shut was arguably aimed at (young) men.

Lastly, the first six episodes of the reboot are continuing the age-gap affair motif from the original series. For example, on episode 7 of the 6th season of Gossip Girl, Blair (Leighton Meester) "Invoke[d] the order of the secrets" in an attempt to blackmail representatives of the five most powerful Manhattan prep schools into attending her fashion show. 

And how did she attempt to blackmail the nymphets from The Nightingale-Bamford School, The Brearley School, The Chapin School, and The Spence School to comply with her demand?

Blair surmised that at least one of the prep school teens had an affair with her drama teacher, another with her Latin teacher and another with her father's business partner.

"Invoke the order of the secrets [...] If they don't do what you say, spill their secrets [...] And if your refuse, she'll have no choice but to reveal your affair with your drama teacher. Your Latin teacher. Your father’s business partner.” "

[Update 12\7\21 | Season 1 Part 2] 

Although, it's not relevant to this blog, it's worth mentioning that there's a Constance student-teacher affair between Max, a Constance senior, and Rafael "Rafa" Caparros - the Classics teacher. Of this student-teacher age-gap affair, Deuxmoi shared with Cosmopolitan's Samantha Bergeson:

Deuxmoi: Yes, I love whoever Max (Thomas Doherty) is hooking up with. I just think that his character is so hot and whoever he's hooking up with - the teacher [e.g., Max performed oral sex on Rafa. At school. During the school day.], the throuple [e.g., Max had a three-way with two other students - in the prep school's chapel.) [...] I'm here for all the Max content. I think he's so sexy.

Bergeson: I totally agree with you.  

I think it's safe to assume that Deuxmoi would not (openly) condone a heteronormative student-teacher affair between Max and, say, Kate Keller (Tavi Gevinson).

In episode 7, of the student-teacher sexual affair, the teacher truthfully confessed that he was "pursued" by his student whom "followed" him after school.

While it was previously inferred the the students were seniors, we get the impression in episode 8 that they're juniors, because Julien said, "When I leave here (i.e., Constance) in a year and a half [...]"

During episode 11, Obie is insulted by a rival, "You're too busy helping Ghislaine Calloway get girls for daddy."

But it's in episode 11 and 12 where viewers get a glimpse of the types of tips that Gossip Girl receives about the raunchy behavior that some of the prep school students indulge in such as in episode 11 we learned that, "They send in pictures of their friends' sanitary napkins. [And they] [d]etail humiliating hookups down to their viscosity." And we learned that Pips got an abortion after she was ditched by Tyler Mathson before he left for Penn. 

In addition, in episode 12, subsequent to Gossip Girl's release of a spreadsheet of all the tips submitted to the gossip Instagram account, we learned that another Constance Billard student had an age-gap sexual affair and "slept" with The Help. And to get more followers on social media, two prep school twins unabashedly engaged in incentious lipstick lesbian girl-on-girl kissing:

Mom: You made out with each other to get followers?
Twin #1 (Auvray Stephenson): And it worked!
Twin #2 (Evershea Stephenson): Prude!

And speaking of lipstick lesbians, in episode 12, Monet commanded her two dates, "You two, upstairs, I need to think. And you're going to keep me focused [by engaging in lipstick lesbian girl-on-girl kissing.)

Lastly and unsurprisingly, Gossip Girl has been renewed for another (rebooted) season. 

Teen Stassi Schroeder: Bent to Lose Virginity to Man

Stassi Schroeder | High School Yearbook

If you don't know Nastassia 'Stassi' Schroeder, per Wikipedia: 

Nastassia Bianca Schroeder Clark (born June 24, 1988) is an American television personality, podcast host, fashion blogger, model and author. She is best known for appearing on Bravo's [popular] reality television series Vanderpump Rules (2013–2020).

Let us concentrate on the author aspect of Stassi's career by sharing chapter 7, "Like a Virgin", from Stassi's New York Times Bestseller Next Level Basic: The Definitive Basic Bitch Handbook, which I learned about from Claire Parker and Ashley Hamilton's Celebrity Memoir Book Club podcast. 

In "Like a Virgin", Stassi shared that when she was 6 or 7-years-old, she started getting a "[...] tingly feeling 'down there'" and would would "secretly fast-forward" to the piano sex scene in Pretty Woman.

I remember the first few times as a kid where I became aware that I got a tingly feeling “down there.” I didn’t know what it meant or what it was but I knew something funny happened every time I watched Dirty Dancing and Pretty Woman. I remember being around six or seven and I would secretly fast-forward to the part in Dirty Dancing where Baby and Johnny finally took their dancing to the, um, next level, and that part in Pretty Woman where Richard Gere and Julia Roberts get going on a piano in the middle of a hotel ballroom. 

Next, pre-teen Stassi moved to "sophisticated porn", Cosmopolitan, and (the sex scenes in) romance novels :

As I got older, I graduated from getting off to Dirty Dancing to more sophisticated porn like Inventing the Abbotts (hello, young Joaquin Phoenix) or 91/2 Weeks. As a preteen, I took to Cosmopolitan magazine, and I would secretly stay up and read the excerpts of romance novels that they always had at the end of each issue.

In high school, Stassi realized that she was attracted to men, and she wanted to lose her virginity to a man - not a high school boy:

I knew I didn’t like high school boys because I always felt way more mature than them, so going on dates with someone my own age bored me. 

All I knew about losing my virginity was that it was going to be with a man, not a boy. And I most definitely accomplished that. 

In the end, after lying about her age, 17-year-old Stassi lost her virginity, on prom night, to Matt, a 27-year-old Matthew McConaughey doppelgänger.

I realized that we were hanging out with a guy I’d had a major crush on—a guy who was twenty-seven years old (aka a man). He legit looked like Matthew McConaughey [...] 

Later, a big group of us go back to his place. I flirted with him as much as I could, having no idea if he would take someone like me seriously.

And then he turns to me and says, “Stassi, are you eighteen?” HOLY SHIT. HOLY SHIT. HOLY SHIT. (That was my inner thought process, FYI.) At that very moment, I knew that I had two paths in front of me. I either tell him the truth (I was seventeen), or I could lie and YOLO it. And I obviously YOLO’d the shit out of it. 

So we did it, and it hurt like hell. I’m pretty much just lying there because I’M A VIRGIN AND VIRGINS HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO DO. 

Mind-bogglingly, Parker and Hamilton opined that Stassi was groomed - obviously ignoring that Stassi shared the following points:

• High school boys bored Stassi
• Stassi was determined to lose her virginity to a man
• Stassi had a major crush on Matt (Wait, did Stassi intentionally leave out the part about how Matt groomed her into developing a major crush? #rhetoricalquestion)
• Stassi lied to Matt about her age

And Parker and Hamilton criticized Matt for asking Stassi if she were of legal age. And they questioned why Matt would want to have sex with an 18-year-old. (Consequently, I'm assuming that like, Orthodox Muslims and Jews, Parker and Hamilton are of the stance that 18-year-old porn stars, whom most often film with men, should not "filming".)

But despite all the criticisms that Parker and Hamilton had about Stassi's book, they didn't criticize Stassi for being attracted to a 27-year-old. Nor did they scold Stassi for lying about her age, which could have landed Matt in serious trouble, because, unless he's a Kennedy, the police (most likely) would not have believed Matt if Stassi claimed that she was groomed and that she did not lie about her age.

Tavi Gevinson on Teen Age-Gap Sexual Affairs

 

In Tavi Gevinson’s The Cut piece, “Britney Spears Was Never in Control”, she wrote that the Framing Britney Spears documentary reminded her of a number of men in her past whom would be comforted by the news that it’s deemed anti-feminist slash sex-negative to think that there’s anything wrong with sexualizing nymphets:

In the flurry of recent Britney Spears commentary, I thought of a few men who would be relieved to learn that it is considered anti-feminist and sex-negative to suggest that there is anything dubious about sexualizing teenagers.

Gevinson shared that when she was 18, she was in a sexually abusive relationship with a wealthy much-older man that, at the time, she classified as “complicated” slash “gray”. And at the time, Gevinson and her partner, both, believed that her celebrity: “[...] status in the world canceled out the power he wielded as an adult man.” But now Gevinson: “plainly” sees it as “assault and abuse.” 

He also seemed to believe, like I did, that my status in the world canceled out the power he wielded as an adult man [...] I held fast to the assertion that teen girls are as intelligent and capable as anyone else. I had built a career on it.

[...] encounters I classified as “complicated” or “gray” and now see plainly as assault and abuse. 

Then Gevinson wrote that “[...] youth does carry currency [...]” but it “[...] can be mistaken for power [...]”. [Emphasis added] And she shared that she was [fully] aware that her “[...] youth was an asset”. Thus, we can conclude that Gevinson deems youth as a currency and as an asset but that youth is powerless. 

I thought I was confused, but then she wrote: “But any claim to total powerlessness ignores the way youth is intertwined with our society’s conception of beauty [...]” Wait, is Gevinson saying that youth has currency, it’s an asset, and that it has some power? #confused

At the same time that young women are disadvantaged by age and gender, youth does carry currency, which can be mistaken for power. If you are a woman, however, this currency is not on your terms. When my abuser said he thought that it was I who “had all the power” while he was a hapless, insecure, wealthy, much-older-than-me man who didn’t know what he was doing, I at first believed him. I was in a splashy phase of my career. I did get us into parties. I was insecure, too, and terrified of appearing naïve, but I was also aware that my youth was an asset [...]

But any claim to total powerlessness ignores the way youth is intertwined with our society’s conception of beauty

Later, Gevinson clearly admits that she did have some power when she was 18, but I think that she’s saying that her power didn’t (fully) come from her youth but that it came from her “whiteness, thinness, cis-ness”:

When I entered the world of adult men as an 18-year-old, I was aware that I’d been granted access, visibility, and currency through my whiteness, thinness, cis-ness—what Janet Mock calls pretty privilege — as well as my social status. I could not reconcile my awareness of my power — and all the safety it promised — with the idea that I was also vulnerable in any way.

To add to the confusion, Gevinson admits that she did feel empowered during her age-gap relationship, but then she philosophically explains that feeling empowered is not the same as having power:

Like me, some felt empowered at the time of their experiences but have since come to see that there is a difference between having power and feeling empowered 

Gevinson shared that her age-gap relationship ended after she was “disposed of” for “becoming too much of a real person” and when her “body shut down and could no longer engage in sex.” In addition, she suspects that she was “disposed of” “[...] for growing up or ceasing to exist as his sexual object [...]”.

I was disposed of when I made the mistake of becoming too much of a real person and when my body shut down and could no longer engage in sex. I’ll never know for sure if he was intentionally punishing me for growing up or ceasing to exist as his sexual object, and I have no reason to trust whatever he’d tell me now, but it’s too late: I already internalized the timing as proof of my expendability.

Of Rookie magazine, Gevinson, the founder and editor-in-chief, wrote:

Rookie was realistic about the challenges girls face, publishing a wealth of great writing about consent, gender dynamics, and sexual assault. 

But I would imagine that, in hindsight, Gevinson regrets publishing Amy Rose Spiegel’s piece “Older Men: Everything you always wanted to know about them, and weren’t at all afraid to ask” where Spiegel assured the nymphet teleiophile readers of Rookie by writing:

“First, being attracted to older guys is completely and totally normal.”

“It doesn’t mean you have “daddy issues””

“Being attracted to someone older just means you are a human person who sometimes thinks other human people are sexy!”

“YOU ARE VERY MATURE FOR YOUR AGE...So it’s totally fine to moon over people who are older than you!”

“It’s totally doable [...] ”

However, in the end, it appears that Gevinson is anti-age-gap relationships as she feels that older men are too powerful for younger women. Even if the older man feels that he’s “hapless, insecure”, his older age trumps all; thus, leaving any teen\young woman utterly powerless. 

And it appears that Gevinson is implying that only older men rape teens\young women who are too drunk to consent, that only older men coerce teens\young women into having sex, and it appears that Gevinson is implying that being in a non-age-gap relationship will prevent any of those horrible things from happening to a teen\young woman. 

Scarlett Johansson: Hypersexualised Teen | Who's to Blame?

Owen Tonks posted on the Daily Mail "Scarlett Johansson, 36, reveals she felt typecast in 'hypersexualised' roles in her teens by 'a bunch of dudes' in Hollywood" (18 July 2021) 

The actress, 36, had her break as an adult actress as Charlotte in 2003 movie Lost in Translation at the age of 18, but had her first leading role as Manny in Manny & Lo at the age of 12.

The star said she felt typecast in certain roles in her teens and on into her early 20s, telling The Sun: 'When I was working in my early twenties, and even my late teens, I felt that I got somehow typecast as hypersexualised, which I guess at the time seemed OK to everyone.

Johansson Manny & Lo (12) | Ghost World (16)

We're assuming that by "everyone", Johansson is including herself and her parent(s).  But, unsurprisingly, I'm incorrect, because Johansson recuses herself and her parents from any blame but relates that it was "kind of crafted" "probably" by "a bunch of dudes in the [film] industry.'" 

'Even though it wasn’t part of my own narrative, it was kind of crafted for me by probably a bunch of dudes in the industry.'

Johansson Ghost World (16)

Is it possible that Johansson, her parents, and the film dudes are to blame? #rhetoricalquestion Then Johansson went on to, erroneously, imply that nymphets are no longer being "typecast as hypersexualised" 

However, she insists 'the climate is so different now' and there are 'so many wonderful opportunities for women' in Hollywood today.

Netflix's Never Have I Ever

I wouldn't be surprised if Johansson didn't watch U16 handball, but I would be shocked if she didn't have a Netflix, Hulu and/or HBO Max account. 

Scarlett Johansson & Benicio Del Toro

Did Johansson's 'hypersexualised' roles lead her to being too sexual teen? Glenys Roberts related in a Daily Mail post that: 

"A 19-year-old Scarlett Johansson was so overcome by its heady atmosphere in 2004 that she couldn’t wait to get upstairs with [37-year-old] Puerto Rican star ­Benicio Del Toro and ripped off his clothes in the lift. ‘We were making out or having sex or something,’ she readily admitted later."

Nancy Spungen: Teen Sex with Rock Stars

Nancy Spungen: Over the Years

Here are the first two sentences from Nancy Spungen's Wikipedia page:

Nancy Laura Spungen (/ˈspʌŋɡən/;[1] February 27, 1958 – October 12, 1978) was the American girlfriend of Sid Vicious and a figure of the 1970s punk rock scene. Spungen's life and death [at the age of 20] have been the subject of controversy among music historians and fans of the Sex Pistols.

On The C-Word podcast (July 8, 2021), Lena Dunham and Alissa Bennet elaborated on Spungen's life. Dunham shared that 16-year-old Spungen bragged that she had sex with the entire rock group Bad Company but that she only gave hand jobs (simultaneously) to two members of the rock band Aerosmith. In addition, Spungen reportedly had sex with Keith Richards, members of The Who, J. Geils and The Allman Brothers.

Lena: "She bragged to her sister that she had sex with the band, Bad Company, all of them."

Lena: "Aerosmith. She once said she drove around in a limousine giving double fisted handjobs to two of them at once. That sounds fun! Keith Richards. The Who. J. Geils and The Allman Brothers."

Alissa went on to say that it wasn't uncommon for a nymphet to have a poster of a rock star taped in her elementary school locker whom she had been intimate with, but Lena couldn't understand why these men (e.g., David Bowie and Mick Jagger) hadn't been canceled by the MeToo movement. 

Alissa: "This is, like, the golden age of the groupie. This was a moment when, like, you'd be 14-years-old and literally, like, have sexual intercouse with a rock star whose poster was hanging in your locker."

Lena: "What's interesting is, like, the MeToo movement has sort of, like, definitely not come for those guys. Like, we've kinda been like, "Fuck all those people! Except for the guys who had sex with 14-year-olds in the 70s, because that was kinda okay." Like, all of our favorite musicians fucked teenagers in the 70s. That is just a fact. Like, they're all these women, who are like, "When I was 13, I lost my virginity to David Bowie. He was so tender."

David Bowie and Lori Maddox

Next, Alissa reminded us of our post that we wrote about the age-gap sexual affair between David Bowie and Lori Maddox. In addition, we shared in that post that 12-year-old Sable Starr reportedly lost her virginity to Spirit guitarist Randy California, and Corel Shields, Starr's 11-year-old sister, was involved with Iggy Pop:

Alissa: "Lori Maddux. Like, that Lori Maddux story with David Bowie and Angela Bowie when she was 13-years-old. It's like all. It's all over."

Lastly, Alissa said that Spungen would let entire bands sleep at her house when her parents were away:

Alissa: "So in 1975, Nancy Spungen is loitering at her parent's house. She's bringing bands home. Like her parents will come home [...]"

American Eagle's Peace, Love & Aerie: Youthful Undies in Times Square

American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) posted on AE.com: "Our purpose is to show the world that there’s REAL power in the optimism of youth."

AEO is the parent company of Aerie, which specializes in leggings, swimwear, bras, underwear and the sort.  

And per Michael Barbaro's New York Times piece "What Women Want", AEO is a "teenage apparel retailer" with Aerie "[...] focused on undergarments for consumers 15 to 25."

With that "said", as I was recently walking to the MoMA, I was surprised to see a video above AEO's Time Square location for Aerie's new Peace, Love & Aerie campaign that projects three young women in their "youth", between the ages of 15 and 25, jumping to expose their Aerie "undies". In addition, a frame of the video is projected, which allows tourists and locals to get a closer look. 

Aerie's Peace, Love & Aerie campaign is yet another example that even teens and (young) women are attracted to the allure of a nymphet and youth. And marketers take advantage of that attraction to advertise and, thereby, sell goods (e.g., leggings, swimwear, bras, underwear and the sort).

Euro [Teen] Handballers: Tiny Little [Spandex] Shorts" Versus [Cheeky] Bikinis

Claire Lampen posted on New York Magazine's The Cut that "Female Athletes Fined for Not Competing in Bikinis" ( JULY 26, 2021):

[T]he European Handball Federation just fined the Norwegian women’s beach team [150 euros (≈ $177) per player] for wearing tiny little [spandex] shorts rather than bikini bottoms during a championship match in Bulgaria last week.

[T]he International Handball Federation — unfortunately this matter goes all the way to the top — dictates that women wear sports bras and bikini bottoms “with a close fit and cut on an upward angle toward the top of the leg,” and sides shorter than four inches, during beach competition. 

Wait, are "tiny little [spandex] shorts" less revealing than bikinis? #rhetoricalquestion

And Lampen asked: "Do they impose similarly revealing mandates for male beach handballers?" Of course not! Apparently, Lampen didn't realize that the allure of nymphets extends to sports. For instance, we shared in an earlier post the discrepancy between the length of the French ball girl and ball boy uniforms. 

In particular to handballers, we made a GIF from the Under 16 Beach Handball EURO 2016 YouTube video, which, unsurprisingly, displays the nymphet handballers in cheeky bikini bottoms and the boys in (almost) knee length shorts. 

Mena Suvari's THE GREAT PEACE: Teen Actress Sex with Hollywood Manager & Lighting Engineer

Previously, we wrote a post about Mena Suvari's role as Angela Hayes in American Beauty (1999). For example, in the Academy Awards winning film, Angela (Mena) shared with her best friend and high school classmate:

“Your dad's actually kinda cute. If he just worked out a little he'd be hot...Oh, come one. Like you've never sneaked a peak at him in his underwears. I bet he's got a big dick...If he builds up his chest and arms I would totally fuck him. I would suck his big fat dick and fuck him until his eyes rolled into the back of his head.”

Very interestingly, Julia Jacobs reported in the New York Times piece "‘The Dark Part of My Life’: 5 Takeaways From Mena Suvari’s Book" (July 27, 2021) that Suvari had a number of real-life age-gap relationships that she shared in her memoir The Great Peace:

“I was getting accustomed to being cast as the sexy one or the sex object,” Suvari writes in her memoir [...] It was art imitating life. I was fine with that; I wanted only to get done what needed to be done and escape back into my own little world.” [Emphasis added] 

At 16, she says that her Hollywood manager, who was in his mid-30s, had sex with her. She was young, vulnerable and desperate for affection, she writes. 

Mena Suvari as Angela Hayes in American Beauty

It appears that Suvari's age-gap affair with her manager was consensual, but in hindsight, she appears to be implying that she was victimized, because she was "young, vulnerable and desperate for affection". 

The abusive relationship she describes in the most detail is with a man named Tyler, a lighting engineer she met at a rave when he was 26 and she was 17. The family she had grown up with had fractured, so Suvari surrendered to Tyler, she writes. Throughout their relationship, she said, he verbally abused her and forced her to participate in sex acts against her will. 

Here, Suvari is implying that she was victimized and would not have had an age-gap affair with the lighting engineer if she had not grown up in a fractured family. 

In the end, Suvari may not have taken any responsibility for her role in her age-gap affairs; however, she made it her responsibility to share details of those controversial affairs to sell books. 

AMERICAN HORROR STORIES: Teen's Turned On By Pain & Shame Porn

Here are the IMDb plot summaries for American Horror Stories Rubber (Wo)man: Part One & Two, respectively:

A teenager and her Dads move into a forsaken home with a grim past. As the family makes renovations, a darkness takes root within them.

Scarlett enters a twisted new romance while Michael and Troy are forced to confront their rocky relationship.

As it relates to the allure of nymphets, the first two episodes of American Horror Stories are about Scarlett who is a 16-year-old lesbian Rubber (Wo)man who is turned on by "pain and shame" and "extreme porn".

When Scarlett's dad said, "We're gonna want you to see a therapist."

Scarlett asked, "To find out what? Why pain and shame turns me on? It turns every girl on. Haven't you seen Fifty Shades of Grey?"

The New York Post confirmed Scarlett's stance that girls are turned on by pain and shame when the tabloid reported: 

Per Women's Health, the tongue emoji conveys, "I want to lick your [insert noun here]."
and the sweat drops "[...] mean any bodily fluid, like semen or squirting."

[...] youths mobbed a movie theater after they were barred from seeing the R-rated movie “Fifty Shades of Grey.”

[...] 100 teens rushed a movie theater Saturday night after they were denied tickets to see “Fifty Shades of Grey,” which is rated R and requires the viewer to be accompanied by a parent if they are under age 17.

When Maya (Paris-Michael Jackson), Scarlett's high school classmate, asked, "You've watched porn, haven't you?"

Scarlett replied, "I like violent stuff. Extreme S&M. Pain."

Maya responded, "That sounds hot."

As American Horror Stories Rubber (Wo)man: Part One & Two appears to be a teen lesbian exploitation series, unsurprisingly, Scarlett masturbated while fantasizing about kissing and choking Maya. 

In part two, the writers took full advantage of the allure of two nymphets. Scarlett had another teen lesbian affair but this time with Ruby (19-year-old model Kaia Gerber). 

Interestingly, Ruby shared with Scarlett that when she was 6-years-old, her parents sold her to "Uncle Tony" whom abused her with a low-volt cattle prod and gave her bloody spankings.

Savannah Before Porn: A 13-Year-Old Wants To DO Rock Stars

Shannon Wilsey\Savannah & Gregg Allman

Savannah (birth name: Shannon Michelle Wilsey) was a famous porn star; however, I learned from Lena Dunham and Alissa Bennet's podcast, The C-Word, that Savannah, who was referred to on the podcast as, "[...] a 13-year-old who wants to drink and do it with rock stars," had a famous age-gap sexual affair with Gregg Allman of The Allman Brothers Band. 

Dunham: "One fateful evening, 16-year-old Shannon was dining with her mother when she caught the eye of 42-year-old famed musician Gregg Allman of The Allman Brothers [...] [S]hannon said that her mom suggested, "You should go out with him. He's famous [...] 

Bennet: "Gregg Allman and Shannon. 16-year-old baby girl and Gregg Allman who's 42 start having a romantic relationship."

 

Dunham: "Classic."

Bennet: "So Savannah packed up her shit. She left to go on tour with him for a couple of years. And no one was, like, ever alarmed that he was 26 years older than her [...] Pam Longoria [Savannah's mother] would later say that at first she was proud that her teenage daughter had dropped out of high school and was touring with a rock star [...]" 

However, despite the fact that Longoria suggested that her daughter "go out" with Allman and Longoria confessed that she was proud of her daughter's age-gap affair, Longoria subsequently sued Allman.
