Bird Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 comic book resources story on Cameron Stewart Stewart has apparently locked his social media accounts in response to the story. I hope that he addresses these allegations and soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 went on date with 16 year old - not good but no other allegations made. drew a pic for a 19 year old - so what claims of "he did this to everyone!" - no substantiation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roach04 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 And I'm old and going to check the urban dictionary site - but didn't "grooming" used to be akin to mentoring or coaching? When I read the headline I was a bit baffled that he was accused of grooming? I am embarrassed but honestly asking - what does it mean now?

Greengiant Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Grooming is something that sexual predators will usually do for their "prey" (a person that they want to fulfill their desire). They will provide positive reinforcement for the person they are grooming for their sexual desire and then deciding when done with the individual, toss them away and be mean to them.

oldbsturgeon Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I had to click to on the link just to see who this was as I didn’t know. I still don’t really. I sometimes feel I should know more about comic things since I am posting here, but I don’t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lighthouse Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I'm not going to dig into this too much since I have no particular interest in this comic creator. But apparently it involved a 16-year-old in Canada in 2009. Canada's age of consent in 2009 was 16 years old. That was kind of a big deal, it being 16. Because it had been 14 for over a century until May 2008 when it was raised to 16. Given that age of consent laws are a reflection of the mores of that locality, it wouldn't appear that his actions were inappropriate by Toronto standards. kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also dont know much-who does really but it looks like a smear campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, just because it may be technically legal doesn't mean it's not creepy. Bringing age of consent laws into this sort of discussion...dude, no. It's gross. Maybe you can get away with trying to date a child in a court of law, but that doesn't make you any less of a scumbag. There are several stories floating around about the guy. Maybe they're not true, but I'd tend to believe the women, simply because there is no benefit to them for lying about it. The stories add up and paint a picture of a pattern. Or maybe a bunch of women who don't know each other all got together to form a secret campaign to :checks notes: bring down a comic book creator that most people within the comic book community aren't even familiar with. Sure. :cough: Revol and djpinkpanther67 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian48 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Creepy, but not illegal if the age of consent is 16. Definitely should have known better on his part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Motor City Rob Posted June 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2020 Um.....ok. He's a weird dude that apparently hasn't done anything illegal.

I read a quote attributed to the complainant in which she says he didn't initiate an intimate relationship until she was 18. Questionable, maybe, but unless/until there is more...

Not sure what else you want to talk about in this thread other then make fun of him more and drag his name through the mud.. do you know him or his alleged victims personally or some insight into the situation? I don't. I'm not going to speculate based on random tweets about what happened. All the gossip and public shaming would do better on other avenues such as twitter or reddit. If this person really broke the law, the police will take care of him. Edited June 18, 2020 by Wolverinex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
