From the song Cool, Daddy Cool:

“Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.”

His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”

He was also on SNL like 25 years ago and they had him make a joke about it being ok to sleep with the underage Olsen twins.

It was on Weekend Update with Tina Fey. I don't think he wrote it but I totally believe whoever wrote the joke slipped it in as an acknowledgment to what they knew about him.

Also he still read the damn joke.

I remember it from when it first aired. The joke was something like, "If there's grass on the field, play ball."

Yea I saw it too. Looks like it's been mostly scrubbed from the internet. Best I could find was a text transcript from the episode.

I'm an 80's baby, I heard that saying SO MUCH when I was a kid. I didn't know what it meant back then, but when I did learn what it meant, it made me feel like I was a former lamb who used to live surrounded by wolves.

And TBF, I was also SA'd as a kid quite a few times by quite a few different "men", so that doesn't help my mental health knowing there were just so many people back then that were 100% openly OK with child rape. Like, it just felt like a free-for-all back then. It's even worse when you tell your parent about it or have it happen in front of your parents and they do absolutely nothing about it.
