KIRK DOUGLAS - DOUGLAS WAS WILLING VICTIM OF STATUTORY RAPE

DOUGLAS WAS WILLING VICTIM OF STATUTORY RAPE

Movie legend KIRK DOUGLAS became a willing victim of statutory rape when he lost his virginity to a school teacher aged just 15. In his forthcoming autobiography LET'S FACE IT - 90 YEARS OF LIVING, LOVING AND LEARNING, the veteran actor confesses he didn't realise his lover could face prison for their affair, but still doesn't regret a thing. Recalling the tryst he writes, "I had been a ragamuffin kid of 15 coping with a neighbourhood filled with gangs... Under her guidance I became a different person. I am eternally grateful. "By today's standards she would have gone to jail. I had no idea we were doing something wrong. Did she?"
