Was Eminem raped as a child?

Asked by Julietxx3 (712points) May 3rd, 2011

In Eminem’s song “Insane” he says often that his step-father raped/molested him. Is this true? Or is it just a song?

How can we possibly know the answer to this?

People sing songs about being raped by their stepfathers all the time! All I can say for certain is that Eminem was not raped by me. Anything else I might say on the topic would be purely speculative.

Like “Eminem was raped by a gigantic carrot monster from a parallel dimension.”

Well I was born a bit after Eminem became famous so I thought some of you older people might know more about him. @Simone_De_Beauvoir if you don’t have a helpful answer, don’t answer at all. You are wasting my time. @atomicmonkey thanks for trying to help me ( :

No problem. You might want to check out his autobiography, The Way I am I haven’t read it, so I can’t really recommend it for any info on his stepfather/interdimensional carrot-monster abuse, but it might give you a better sense of his early life etc.

@Julietxx3 I’m wasting your time? oh, the irony.

Yes, you wasted my time. I am trying to get my answer, and I wasted my time reading your response, which did not help me at all. If you think this is a waste of your time, why did you answer in the first place? oh, the irony.

@Julietxx3 To let you know that one can’t know the answer to this. Thanks for playing.

To be fair, @Julietxx3 you wasted your own time more than @Simone_De_Beauvoir did. Your response to her is longer than what she wrote in the first place. If you hadn’t decided to put so much energy into being rude, and just let it go then you would have had those precious seconds of life to google Eminem.

And if anyone has the right to cry foul for time wastage, it’s me! This response is longer than all of your ‘time wastage’ entries put together!! but I don’t blame you guys. I blame Eminem’s rapey interdimensional carrot monsters.
