Check out how Yale computer science professor David Gelertner now defends recommending a student to Epstein for a job by saying she’s “a v small goodlooking blonde.” https://yaledailynews.com/articles/gelernter-tells-dean-he-stands-by-praising-student-s-looks-to-epstein Gelertner’s defense: he was rightly “keep[ing] the potential boss's habits in mind."
So... he writes out "goodlooking" but abbreviates "very".
One could assume that he recognized, in this context, "very small" was a proxy for "childlike" and resorted to abbreviation to pretend this wasn't v creepy.
And were he aware of E's history, mentioning this characteristic seems to be an attempt to ingratiate himself with E.
A shame that all of the men Gelernter knows allegedly "behave" like this.
That explains a lot, but it excuses nothing.
