"Liar's Poker" Trader, the real American Psycho?

You are misrepresenting what I mean by the “noise”. All things you mention are a true signal and, if anything, should be amplified. The noise would be situations where the abuse is exaggerated or completely lied about.

An unrelated example. Take the Soviet Jewish refugees in the 80s that all claimed great suffering and took the refugee slots that, at the time, should have gone to people from actual war zones all across the world.

Anyway, back to this story. It’s hard to speculate about what happened here because we are reading a biased news article. The information disclosed is very emotional, one-sided and is designed to force an out-of-court settlement. I am sure they will succeed in their financial goals but at the cost of increasing public cynicism about women’s abuse.

this isn't about women being abused, this is about a voluntary exchange between a rich jon and a prostitute for Sado masochism ... Big difference... she is playing the optionality , he made the mistake of taking the risk even with a paid prostitute considering the social leverage and implications the mention of abuse towards women has.. She yes INVITED the abuse for a pay day.. now if you think that should be illegal lets talk about that.. this isn't a womens rights issue..

Yes and no. It may have been taken further than was agreed upon. I don’t think a playboy playmate wants to get her breast reversed by a punch. And if he is stupid enough to do the above he has to pay piper.

True... The impression was that they were selling that service , if they weren't then obviously it's a totally different situation..

Here are more details. The guy is a major D-bag. If even half of this is true (giving him a huge benefit of the doubt), he deserves to get his shit pushed in out on Rikers.

Good movie reference "shit pushed in"

In 1997 famed sportscaster Marv Albert was similarly involved in a BDSM sex scandal, he was alleged to have left teeth marks and more on one of his playmates...
