    I'm not sure that a it should be called an "affair" when an adult man is messing around with his wife's adoptive 15 yr old daughter... I know times were different, but still.

      Yeah, I doubt that people called it an "affair" back then, too. A man is a man and a child is a child in any century.

      @@susanmirarchi7303 There are several fictional murder mystery stories from that era which portray a spoiled and debauched wealthy woman adopting and then disposing of a child after she felt egotistically threatened by her current husband's ( or lover's ) attraction to the child. Some were likely based on Aimee. She sounds like a rotten person, actually. Generally, the fictional characters like Aimee end up as the murder victims.

      @@jabbermocky4520 This may not be fair to say., but I have to think, that she never cared much about other people, or their feelings. I understand being young and "getting your ya-yas out", but she seemed to plow through lovers, even in her older years! With all that money she could do what she liked, and she would do it again, if she could!
      I have to admit I was hoping to hear of her doing something charitable, or doing something to help her fellowman. Very clearly she loved the spot light, she loved to be thought of as scandalous and outrageous. It takes all kinds of people in the world thought, right?! It would be a dull and boring world without our differences from one another.
      She very likely was brought up by a nanny herself

    Aimee Crocker was a woman who lived life to the fullest. However, I wonder how her life would've been without the enormous wealth. Nevertheless, she lived her truth, and as such, is an inspiration! Thanks for covering her wild life.

    Her 4th husband didn't have an affair with her 15 year old daughter, he raped her. A 15 year old kid is not able to consent to sex with an adult (or older teen) in any case but especially when there is a power imbalance like the adult being a parent or step-parent. I hope her daughter wasn't punished for what happened to her. Great video 👍

    It's interesting and speaks volumes about this society of ours when a Kardashian prototype is considered "fascinating" and praised for unapologetically living on her own terms (while trampling all over the lives of others.)
    She was a narcissist. Nothing more. Happily left in the dustbin of history where she belongs.
    There are better people worth remembering.

    • @kevintaylor3781
      @kevintaylor3781 26 дней назад +1

      Not a Kardashian prototype. She befriended and matched wits with literary heroes and thinkers like Oscar Wilde, Robert Louis Stevenson and Aleister Crowley. The love of her life Edgar Saltus was a literary genius.
