Now if he slipped them the Quaaludes without their knowledge and then fucked them while they were passed out...yeah, that's drug rape.
BUT...if he simply was buying them because so many girls loved doing them back in the day (and they did...I became an adult at the tail end of quaaludes being available, and it seemed like everybody was doing them), then "no" he's not a rapist.
I'm kinda undecided myself.
On one hand I've watched several women give some pretty convincing stories on the news.
On the other hand, it's hard to tell if what they are saying is true...or if they are just gold-digging.
Yeah, I know that sounds harsh and I don't mean it to be. I'm just saying that is a concern. Especially when every one of them says that they didn't tell their story when it actually happened but NOW they are all going to "come forward".
Doesn't mean that they aren't telling the truth. Just saying that it's a bit concerning...especially when I factor in that all of this happened 30 years ago when they were all young hot actresses trying to get a break in Hollywood, and Cosby was THE man.
Just seems like he could have simply ASKED any one of them to fuck him back then and they would have gladly done it just to get a break in the industry. Hell, he probably had young hot wanna be actresses throwing themselves at him constantly back then.

I agree with you completely.
If he is intentionally slipping drugs to women with the intent of knocking them out to have sex with them, that's rape. However, if he is going to a party where everyone is taking drugs and drinking and the woman are "more wiling" because of it... That's a different story.
The one case that seems to get the most traction is the woman who claims she was raped by Cosby at the Playboy Mansion when she was fifteen. I don't mean to imply that it's acceptable for a woman to be raped because she went to the Playboy Mansion, but I am guessing she didn't go there for a study session. Chances are she was drinking and popping pills long before she ran into Cosby that night.
I am also not saying Cosby is innocent either. It seems that a lot of women from the "comedy circuit" are saying that everyone knew Cosby was a womanizer.
