He had a certain fan base here and some weren't gone on him.
He disappeared very fast last year and now he's about to sue Twitter.
Oh sorry, I missed the bit where he got her to take back the claim the oral rape happened.
Also, she was still 17, and he was still 27.
Creepy bastard.
You have missed quite a bit TBF, but was it "her" claim or "their" claim? There seem to have been a few bad actors involved in making up this tale according to her solicitor.
It's quite astonishing that we have got to a stage where anonymous allegations on the interest are not only giving credence but emotionally defended.
Sigh.
That was her claim. So yes he does have questions to answer.
Thats why he’s not taking her to court. He knows other sh*t will come out.
That's why there are actual laws with definitive age limits .As much as I dislike this clown he broke none of these,what is "creepy " in your head has no bearing on anything.
He might be "creepy" I don't know. But that does not make him a criminal.
Exactly. The only creepy thing is people thinking 20-21 year olds fancying 17 year olds is creepy.
What planet are people living on? There are countless examples of males in their 20s dating girls/in their late teens. Are all these males in their 20s that happen to be dating 17 and 18 year olds all creeps? Whatever definition/traits people are giving to creeps...
He committed no crime, and nor is he a "creep" because" he was attracted to a 17 year old female......
She's a proven liar, admitted to lying, and here you are still giving her tales credence.
Yes, a 20 year old dating an 18 year old is the same as a 27 year old picking a 16 year old up from school to sneak them into pubs........
No wait, the second part is fcuking creepy grooming behaviour.
That’s because a lot of people are so caught up in idealised expectations that they put them over real life and human nature. It’s sad really.
You hit the nail on the head here.
Truth of the matter, this is no one's business...McDermott's behaviour is pretty standard in the male feminists world! The young woman's behaviour is typical as well, no laws were broken just a career of a man who rode that wave of virtual signalling idiocy until his own ate him.
They sure do love the chance to try and cancel someone. Especially for a group who moan so much about people getting cancelled
Most grown ups don't get hot and bothered about the high jinx of d list celebs...we shouldn't know any of their business or opinions for that matter!
I still don't know who this thread is about.
You have no idea why he isn't taking her to court.
Suing someone for libel is a costly business, especially when you win and the other person has no money.
Like I said previously I have no idea who this guy is, z-list at best, I imagine. But no one should be ruined by a concerted effort of people nefariously publishing anonymous fiction on social media.
I'm just happy he's gone off the tv and from the radio.
This.
His whole act and stick was centered around me too and bashing toxic male behaviour. His picking up a school kid when he was 27 and she was 17 doesnt really lend itself to his cause.
Rightfully his career which was based on me too is ruined.
The lad will be ok. I cant see him back on irish screens or airwaves though.
There's a link in the OP...
tldr: he's the lad who tried to cancel Fairytale of New York
Yes thanks I am aware of that. But without going and searching the Internet to find out who this Eoghan McDermott is and what they have done (which I'm not really bothered to do) then I can't say I'm aware of any of his work.
I know his bird has since dumped him, but was he after this young wan while he was still with the bird??
Let him on, as they say
The only thing that’s sick is labelling people who have a different opinion to yours as such.
We should be able to disagree on matters without this sort of posting.
When it comes to school children being collected from outside the school by someone ten years older i'll label away. It beggars belief people wanting that to be normal.
People don’t want it to be normal, it just is.
Tusla consider a child anyone under the age of 18. So 17 would be a child.
Its not. A 27 year old bloke rocking up outside the school gate picking up a school child for sexual purposes isnt normal.
What are you on about? When you use words like school and child, and bring in scenarios, you’re deliberately trying to portray this as seedy as possible.
He was 27. She was 17. She was not some child in the true sense of the word. He was attracted to her. Nothing at all unnatural here.
Been the same since males and females roamed the earth. You may want to paint it as unnatural, but it’s not.
It is normal. Both parties were consenting and no laws were broken. The only problem is your code of ethics or whatever.
Again, being deliberately obtuse. 17 is not a child in the sense we’re discussing here about him and her and their intimate connection.
for starters, Tusla and anybody else would have no grounds for concern if both a 27 year old and a 17 year old consented to sexual intimacy.
Tusla consider anyone under18 a child.
She was in school.
