    Her name is Shoshanna Lonstein Gruss. They started dating when she was 17 and he was 38. No strawman.

    Is it really hard to believe that a celebrity was dating someone way too young? It should be illegal to have schools in LA.

      They did not start actually dating until she was 18 according to many things I read but people will still die on this hill no matter what I say and no matter what they read.

        This was the same era when Bill Clinton claimed he did not have sex with Monica Lewinsky because it was only a blow job.

        “Dating” just means they claimed not to have had sex until she was 18. He still met her by herself in a park and had private time with her when she was underaged. We call that today Grooming. Jerry Seinfeld is a groomer.

            Nah, calling it dating was being polite to Seinfeld. No difference between dating and grooming when one of them is underaged.

            Is it only a problem for you if they’re having sex?
