Concierges do when summoned.

"Summoned"...???

Hotel employees are admonished by management and insurance companies from entering a guest's room in the middle of the night alone, and they sure don't close the door.

You must think women are idiots and do what they're told because someone in authority might tell them to do it.

You should hang out with stronger, smarter women.

Employees may be admonished not to close the door, but are 6'6", 220-pound guests? This may be part of the allegation. We'll know when the records are unsealed.

No, not at all. But I also believe the women who are (really) raped shouldn't blame themselves.

You've clearly no idea whom my friends are or what they're like.

most of her "traumas" appear to be self-inflicted and self-serving.

This comment brings me full circle to why I commented on one of your earlier postings (see my post #26).

Let's assume for a moment that this whole episode was only adultery and not rape. The only negative things you've said about Kobe on all of these posts in this thread is that (a) he's an adulterer (wow...how obvious is that...can't be in denial there); and (b) he's "an idiot" (who knows, you probably think that just 'cause he opened up his door to an unescorted female).

Every guy knows there are women you don't walk down certain paths together (alone)--no matter how briefly. So are you willing to publicly slap around Kobe for at least acknowledging that the wrong head was ruling this guy?

We've all known women in our life that were sexually vulnerable, but who, had we taken advantage of them at those vulnerable moments, would only have compounded their previous traumas (even if they were self-triggered).

Loving your neighbor as yourself=not taking advantage of their vulnerability...just as you wouldn't want someone to take advantage of your weaknesses.

As I wrote on a previous thread: "Nice job, Kobe! Great discernment of character. Going around seducing (at the very least) 'emotionally unstable' women! Way to pounce on somebody when they're down (if not literally, then he did it at least figuratively!)

Do stable people try to kill themselves {from previous thread}

"Ah, Kobe, we really needed you to bring this home to us and flesh this out for us...you know, about the down side of one-night stands. I mean, when men sleep with women who have recently attempted suicide, those kinds of slam-bam, thank-you mam activities don't tend to help these young ladies in the therapeutic stage of their life. But we'll see if you were attempting therapy or was donning the role of THE-RAPist."
