Every person is different. Now hear me out, some women are attracted to men with power. Shocking!
Louie is a fat, schlubby guy with no self-confidence, which is why he didn't even try to have sex, but simply asked to jack off in front of them. That's how pathetic he is.
Futhermore, do you know for a fact that he and these women never flirted before that moment (I haven't read the articles in 2 years, but would they have even mentioned that)? Maybe he thought they were interested in him. If not, if it was out of the blue, then yes, he put them in a fucked up situation by going sexual out of the blue. But in his fat, insecure mind, he probably thought it was an appropriate. I do not think for one minute that he had bad intentions to abuse his supposed power.
The main issue with Louis was the cover-up after the fact. The power moves by his manager... perhaps at the request of Louis. That's where he fucked up the most.
