Let’s look at the sex accusations against Neil Gaiman
The popular author is said to get “rapey”
A new podcast series is examining the sex life of the writer Neil Gaiman. He is described as getting BDSM rough and “rapey” with much younger women. Is that okay?
I’m looking over the shock accusations, posted on July 3rd, against the popular author of The Sandman, Coraline and American Gods, wondering what they say about him—and maybe his fans too.
Neil Gaiman is very sexually progressive.
He has described his politics as “far to the left of any political party,” though in his mind all politics just reduces to the question: “Why can’t we all be nice to each other?”
That’s what he says, anyway. He has been a voice for many progressive causes like trans rights, and regularly pipes up with a prompt to “believe women” in the context of accusations made against other men.
In 2018, he tweeted support for accusations made by Christine Blasey Ford against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. “Men must not close our eyes and minds to what happens to women in this world,” Gaiman sermonizes.
