    Hell, they wrote songs about it. “Jailbait” by Ted Nugent, “Seventeen” by Winger… I’m sure there are more.

      You mean the Ted Nugent that had a 13yr old girl living in his house while writing jailbait?

      Bro he’s a pedophile, pointing to a pedophile and going look there it’s normal is fucking crazy.

        I’m not saying it’s normal. I’m saying it was normalized in the past, and thankfully that attitude is changing now and we can see how gross it always was.

        Yes, Nugent is a fucking pedophile. He absolutely isn’t alone in the world of rock in that, though.

      Chuck Berry: hold my guitar.

      Jerry Lee Lewis: hang onto this piano for me.

      The list is as long as musicians are famous.
