Unwittingly had ‘sex’ with a child, realised it was a child, had ‘sex’ a second time.
And wrote a song about it. And then wrote it into his autobiography.
How this man apparently skated through the #MeToo movement unscathed is truly baffling.

He did specify that he was also a rockstar and a drug addict. I don’t think their point was just the age
As someone who’s gone through a meth addiction, I’ve seen it warp people and make them capable of things they’d never do normally. And I do mean sexually. This has been a topic at every HIV clinic I’ve worked for, the counselors would have pretty typical straight guys who would turn into nympho gay bottoms once they got high. I don’t think it’s a latent sexuality thing, I think their circuits are just so blown out they turn into a different person entirely. I’ve not been addicted to heroin (yet!) but I have to assume there’s similar dissociation and personality changes from chronic use.
Writing about it later is gross as hell but 2004 was peak “gross fucking masculinity” time when this sort of shit was almost celebrated, so I can see him or the ghostwriter thinking it would be a brag of some sort.
Is he still doing it now that he’s sober? Is he contrite? These are things I would factor in, even if it was a pattern during his drug use. I haven’t followed RHCP in a very long time so IDK.
