I was watching a video on Willem Dafoe on his iconic roles, and his passion to craft and life, and positivity, exudes from him immensely. In that video, I am surprised he remembers from which of his movies the lines came from. It made me love him more as an actor because he loves life and his job.

But then during the interview, I remembered too when I watched Kevin Spacey's interview before, admiring him and it turned out he is a creep. I was telling to myself about Willem Dafoe "please don't be a creep, please don't be a creep."

Willem seems like a genuinely nice guy though but I hope I don't get proven wrong!

On the surface it's weird and kinda creepy, but nothing more than that. Of course it's possible that he could be a controlling guy in his relationships or even worse, but we have no indication for that.

I think some people enjoy being with young people and as far as i am concerned if someone is 18 , consented and keeping a straight head like no booze or drugs i don't care who they sleep with . But yeah as he is rich and famous i should keep an eye on that

I dont think the sleeping with someone is the problematic thing usually.

In relationships with a big age gap, there tends to be a certain group of people who date young because younger people dont stand up as much against shitty behaviour. That's a simple fact. Does that mean everyone who dates young is an abusive asshole? No. But a certain percentage is, and that's what we need to keep an eye on.

I agree but most young people today seems to have self esteem . And that issue is possible in any relationship but yes there are increased risk factors
