date rape has been recognized for a long time - i would say over 30 years , do his offenses predate this time ?

Actually yes they do. The 1960s and 1970s are well over 40 years ago. In the 70s and even 80s people would have sex while on drugs. Today it would be looked at differently but what was the social norm when he was doing it?

This is assuming the accusations are truth and he actually did it. We don't know for a fact the accusations are true because he hasn't been convicted.

it is good to hear your information, by the way you asked for my opinion. All the best, Have a good day
