And vintage homosexual erotica? Really?
Maybe Reubens had the tape in order to gawk at Rob Lowe, not the 16 year old....
I do not know how Jeffrey Jones and Rob Lowe come out clean in the whole thing, though, and Reubens is the one who gets all the opprobrium. Maybe the second strike off the first indecent exposure charge?
I do not know.
The fact that he seems like a weird duck in real life, like he was on the screen seems very fitting. I find it weird, where people draw lines, especially when you have a host of LH defenders to the death.
In the end, I was entertained by some of the things that Paul Reubens did professionally. His quirky personal life should not necessarily undermine the first sentence, but I can see how it might for other people.
I also defend LH because he had done all that the justice system had required of him, thereby fulfilling his debt to society. Judging him again for a crime he had paid for is double jeopardy.
I know less of Paul Reubens. If he was gay or bisexual, then the crime was that he was so at a time when we all could easily discriminate against gay people.
His crime was that he was so successful at playing a quirky character that people wanted and believed he was quirky. The Congressman found with gay porn survives the news drop better than Pee Wee.
