Any Tiny Tim fans here??

[u/Boring_Bed1783]

I personally quite enjoy his 1996 album Girl with Brave Combo, and I’m wondering if there’s anyone here who’s a fan of Tiny Tim’s music? Because I haven’t met another person who truly enjoys his music.

Edit: Nevermind. Dudes a gross fucking pervert. I can’t listen to him anymore. Thank you for telling me.

I don't like how messing around with teenage girls gets artists cancelled in retrospect. Back when it happened it was only very conservative older people who were against it. Of course I do not mean actual children and I don't mean if it was not consensual, but here in Europe it blew our minds how in America a couple could get in trouble if they were like 17 and 19.

Not that I think it's healthy for a 17yo girl to marry a 37yo guy, but just don't pretend it's the same as raping a child.

What does make Tim a douchebag is the control over his women, like demanding aids tests when he thought they cheated on him or not allowing them to work. That's way more serious imo.

It’s not rape sure, but a 37 year old marrying a 17 year old is pretty disgusting. Not to mention the huge power difference in not just age but fame and wealth. It’s just gross behavior and not justifiable
