My grandmother married my grandfather when she was 16. My grandfather was 24. Back then I think that was just how life was. People got married young, and nobody batted an eye.

There is a huge difference between dating, and raping. R.Kelly is disgusting.

I'm not sure if it's racist. Some say Elvis stole music and others say by playing African American music he gave them an audience and showed it was worth something. He was also humbled saying he couldn't sing like Fats Domino. For the time he was probably open to all kinds of music. https://www.newsweek.com/elvis-presley- ... 1911?amp=1.

Not the same. Elvis never raped Pricilla and according to her they didn't have S*x until they married. She was 18 then.

I honestly don't know whether or not Elvis stole other musician's music. Nothing would surprise me. But I had never heard that. I have heard it said that he mimicked black singers. I can definitely see that. I will also say there was a lot of wonderfully talented black singers during that time. I still love listening to that music today!

I am sure I'm supposed to feel some kind of way about Elvis, based on this post, but I don't. I will never forgive him for introducing us to peanut butter and banana sammiches. My brother ate them, ew!
