How The New York Times Explains Male Sex Scandals
Tuesday, June 21, 2011


Anthony Weiner, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Arnold Schwarzenegger -- these are just the most recent examples of powerful men who have ruined their lives because of some inappropriate (or, in the case of Strauss-Kahn, allegedly much worse than inappropriate) sexual conduct.

Can you name a single woman politician caught in a similar sex scandal?

If not, why not?

The answer is so simple and so obvious that there should be no need to write a column on the subject. But, thanks to feminism and academia, the obvious has been declared untrue.

Take the article on this subject by New York Times Washington correspondent Sheryl Gay Stolberg. Titled "When It Comes to Scandal, Girls Won't Be Boys," Stolberg begins her answer to the question as to why powerful men, but not powerful women, are involved in sex scandals with this disclaimer: "It would be easy to file this under the category of 'men behaving badly,' to dismiss it as a testosterone-induced, hard-wired connection between sex and power (powerful men attract women) ... ."

IIRC the left tried to pin some extra-marital dalliances on Nikki Haley during the recent elections.  Then there is the fact that most teachers involved with students are also women.  That is also a form of abuse of power and position.
