Online crusaders need to look up what words mean, this stuff doesn't make Dan a pedo (no cases of underage sexual contact so far) or a groomer (I don't think the relationship was true for that but I could be wrong) just... kind of a skeevy creep.
Canceling him for that is fine if that's what they want, but call that shit what it is.
Not to downplay how sleazy he is, and I think however way you slice it he's still going to be a womanizing douche here, but I feel like some important details must be missing. because even from a heartless hit-em-and-quit-em perspective that makes little sense as a way to get laid.
With his methods of obtaining nookie from his naive female fanbase aside (assuming the claims against him are true); it must be one Hell of an ego/self esteem boost to know that women so young would happily gives themselves to him with little effort on his part (might give him a false sense of being desirable; even though the likelihood of getting the same attention if he was an average joe schmoe would likely have been significantly less, if not entirely non existent).
So....Dan Avidan sleeps with girls in their 20s and then ghosts them.
So.....he's like every other fucking man who attracts groupies? As long as he's not fucking 12 year olds like that 'blood on the dance floor' fucknuts, who gives a shit? it's between him and them.
The girls have a right to be hurt, but are stupid if they thing banging a famous musician means they have a tie to them that means more then the one of the last groupie who threw herself at him.
Seriously, you sleep with a guy known as 'Danny Sexbang' and expect....what exactly, besides a sexbanging?
All the funny dried up after a day so now we are stuck discussing this like a bunch of Greek philosophers having a post-bussy orgy debate in the bath house until GG comes out with some more retarded shit, sadly. Same thing happens in other threads when something is over after like a day. Edited due to having a Extremegamer94 moment
He didn't wait until she was of age, she texted him in September and her birthday was in October and then it turned sexual some time later. IF Dan had the idea of sexting before she turned 18 he would've been more gung ho about it. But what looked like happened was that Dan developed a stronger relationship with her after 18 with the sexting aspect growing with alongside
All have the right to end communications with anyone at any time. Does it make him a bad person? Practically speaking: No. If Dan and that bitch's relationship was unhealthy then surely it must've been a good thing to cut it off irregardless of the method.
That is an absolute defence though. We can talk about morality and whether it was bad, and while that discussion can and should be had, in the eyes of the law Dan did nothing wrong.
Nigger, if there are no consequences legally from the law because what Dan did was legal then the only thing you can be suggesting is some sort of faggot internet justice.
I think the original, unedited picture was of the girl's dad, then it was changed to Jesus Christ. Unsure if the original picture in question originated from /pol/ but most likely.

Sure, you can and sometimes should cut communion with people, but to do so only after you've got what you wanted is still a very nasty thing to do. It probably was a good thing that he did it though, I hope she learned a lesson about the nature of these types of relationships.

I was talking about it as a moral point. It was more as an address to the people in this thread who don't think that it is at the least questionable to fuck much younger girls. With that being said, at least she was legal. You can't take that for granted with these YouTubers.

There many different types of consequences, it isn't always being locked up or beaten in the street by a mob. Sometimes the consequences of our actions are shouldered by others. An example would be a young person who has had a encounter with someone they looked up to only to be used the tossed aside. This could negatively affect a persons understanding of both sex and sexual relationships. Another example would be sleeping around and messing up you understand sex and it's value is also a consequence of being a whore, yet retards on Twitter make sure that every woman who sucked dick for a role or money now feels like she did nothing wrong and it's not her fault.
That's not exactly what happened. Guys that fuck groupies tend to pick them up after shows and both parties know exactly what they are getting into. I have no reason to care about that. Dan found girls ahead of time and made it seem like he gave a fuck about them, and then ghosted them after sex. That means either he had no groupies after shows to simply pick up for sex (a possibility because: just fucking look at the guy), or perhaps he enjoyed messing with their heads. . It is a lot like the D.E.N.N.I.S. system on always sunny. I do think he enjoyed hurting their feelings. I think that because dan spent hundreds of episodes of GG creating the image of himself as a nice person who is actually sexually reserved and doesn't fuck that many people, the danny sexbang thing is just a gimmick, etc. He lied hundreds of times about what kind of person he is when he could have had exactly as much sex without toying with anyone's emotions or being full of shit. It was totally unnecessary. He almost always created the fake image of himself in contrast to arin being raunchy, which is weird when arin married someone he met in high school and is (to my knowledge) completely monogamous. I was a fan of game grumps a few years ago and remember a lot of this really well. He told the story about getting diagnosed with OCD and found that it was a pussy magnet to put on a persona like that, so he ran with it. Its morally reprehensible behavior.
Also, anyone who is as old as dan and targets women who have recently turned 18 are saying they would fuck younger women if the law weren't in the way. If the agreed upon age of majority were lower, dan would fuck younger teenagers as well. I am sure of it. Such a person never says exactly how low they would go, but its generally much lower than most people would consider moral for a 40 year old to lust after.
And finally, has anyone made fun of him for this yet?? Its the cringeist thing dan has ever done.
I barely even give a rats ass about these faggots anymore. But when something happens that seems like these idiots will finally get screwed and that juicy drama will come from it, can you blame me for taking some interest in this trash fire from time to time?
Even if this whole thing was a nothing burger, I learned that Dan is more of a sleeezebag than I used to think.
I agree with most the Kiwis here. I'm more on the side of Dan's weird habit of pumping and dumping legally aged fans is lawful but awful. From a lawful viewpoint, what he's doing isn't illegal. Yes, he only engaged in sexual activity once his teenaged fans became of age. From an ethical standpoint, it's gross and sus as all hell. But the women who slept with him should know better that a man 20 years your senior who frequently makes songs about sex is likely going to ghost you. That also isn't to say Dan shouldn't receive backlash for actions, because he most certainly should.
