Exactly. All we know is Stevie's role, and if you go by her actual words -- her lyrics, her interviews -- you can clearly read her intentions, thoughts and reflections on the men in her life. You can see that she had to grow up and learn, and she did grow up and learn, on multiple occasions. Her songs are full of honest yearning, love, and conflict.

Stevie gets a lot of hate for sleeping around, yet do her haters obsess over the age, marital status, etc. for every one night stand or romantic partner the men in the band might have had? Do they accuse the male band members of being homewreckers and sluts? What about the male band members' marital or relationship statuses while they were with other people? And while we're on the topic of morality, why aren't those same supposed moralists who condemn Stevie's role in the infidelity of married men condemning Lindsey for his allegedly abusive behavior towards his long term partner(s)?

Not defending Stevie for sleeping with married men but there is clearly more than a misogynistic slant to this board, and the double-standard is pretty appalling.
