She wasn't his step-daughter.
She was his ex-wife's daughter. Therefore step-daughter.
She wasn't his step-daughter.
Having read the young womans letter, she grew up with severe mental problems as a result of her time with Allen. She has eating disorders and went through a period where she cut herself. She has esteem issues. My guess is that she's finally reached a time in her life where she can publicly face her issues. Read her letter to the NYT and then form your opinion.
Disgusting!!!
Put it this way:
When you've taken a position that's even more morally and sexually rigid than GaThomas, you might want to reconsider it.
An older and unattractive man with a young and beautiful young woman
Inspiring!!
He knew her when she was a child and she is his step-daughter.
I did read it, and it seems like an absolutely tragic story.
That does not, however; mean that it is necessarily true.
Medical examiners didn't find any evidence to suggest that she was sexually assaulted at the time. I'm reserving judgment on the matter as such. :shrug:
He might be a pedophile or he might not. There's simply not enough data available to be able to say for sure.
:shrug:
Again, it's not like they're biologically related or anything. They were only barely ever related at all.

With a girl he knew when she was a homeless child, eating out of trash cans! Not to mention, his step-daughter!
and that's my last word on this topic.
You're gross.
I'm just looking at things objectively here.
She clearly doesn't think the relationship is "gross," or that she was ever abused. She was also well over legal age when their relationship was consummated, and they are not biologically related.
The idea of becoming sexually involved with someone you played a hand in raising (even if it was only a minor hand) is kind of weird and vaguely creepy. I absolutely agree with you there. However, given the circumstances at play here, there really isn't anything technically "wrong" with it.
There are plenty of unions out there far creepier than this one that no one seems to have any problem with.
I doubt that
My understanding is that it was Farrow who adopted the children and not Allen. IMO, that says something about his lack of emotional attachment and involvement with the children. I have also seen him say in interviews that pre-date the whole controversy saying that he's not particularly fond of children.
They don't get his jokes
Apparently some adults don't either! Just sayin'.
You need to educate yourself about the process of grooming. This particular child came from abject poverty. You don't think he took advantage of this situation? He is a sick, sick man. PERIOD.

Of course, you would be right THIS time. :roll:
A man who married his step daughter, and this doesn't fit? :lamo Oh the irony.

Here, then, are the Top 10 misconceptions, followed by my response in italics:
#1: Soon-Yi was Woody's daughter. False.
#2: Soon-Yi was Woody's step-daughter. False.
#3: Soon-Yi was Woody and Mia's adopted daughter. False. Soon-Yi was the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and André Previn. Her full name was Soon-Yi Farrow Previn.
#4: Woody and Mia were married. False.
#5: Woody and Mia lived together. False. Woody lived in his apartment on Fifth Ave. Mia and her kids lived on Central Park West. In fact, Woody never once stayed over night at Mia's apartment in 12 years.
#6: Woody and Mia had a common law marriage. False. New York State does not recognize common law marriage. Even in states that do, a couple has to co-habitate for a certain number of years.
#7: Soon-Yi viewed Woody as a father figure. False. Soon-Yi saw Woody as her mother's boyfriend. Her father figure was her adoptive father, André Previn.
#8: Soon-Yi was underage when she and Woody started having relations. False. She was either 19 or 21. (Her year of birth in Korea is undocumented, but it's believed to be either 1970 or '72.)
#9: Soon-Yi was borderline retarded. Ha! She's smart as a whip, has a degree from Columbia University and speaks more languages than you.
#10: Woody was grooming Soon-Yi from an early age to be his child bride. Oh, come on! According to court documents and Mia's own memoir, until 1990 (when Soon-Yi was 18 or 20), Woody 'had little to do with any of the Previn children, [but] had the least to do with Soon-Yi', so Mia encouraged him to spend more time with her. Woody started taking her to basketball games, and the rest is tabloid history. So, he hardly 'had his eye on her' from the time she was a child."
He married a grown woman. He's been with her for 20 years now.
Mia encouraged him to spend more time with her. Woody started taking her to basketball games, and the rest is tabloid history.
You are WRONG. There are pedophiles who have long-term relationships with one victim.
