    Allow me to help give context. This is Leonardo DiCaprio we’re talking about, a very famous movie star. This man can afford to have eccentric personal relationship rules. These women, while much younger, are still adults who can make informed decisions about their own lives. It’s even easier to grasp when you realize this just means they know the relationship has a predetermined max limit.

    Thi2nk of it like a summer fling. Someone comes into town, just for the summer. You really hit it off and both of you want to spend more time with the other. But you both know at the end of Summer, they’re leaving town again. Would you still be willing to enjoy that time together?

    It’s kind of like that, except the other person is Leonardo fucking DiCaprio, and they’re leaving town because they’re rich celebrities who can do whatever they want.

    So yeah, it’s definitely fuckin weird, but that doesn’t exactly make it bad. Those are independent variables.

    Hundreds of years, yes. Without issue? Definitely incorrect. It is a statistical certainty that, in the entire course of history, someone somewhere has gotten sick and died from this cooking method.

    Pedantry aside, it’s all about who’s making the stew that matters. A seasoned chef today with the sufficient knowledge of modern food safety practices can keep a stew reliably safe to eat. Some old farmer centuries ago will experience a lot more opportunities for contamination and won’t notice until they get the shits.
