Warning: the following contains a feminist diatribe

J and I got into a discussion this morning after watching the news story about the 17-year-old boy who had an affair with his married 29-year-old teacher. J was commenting that the boy's friends were probably thinking it was incredibly cool, slapping him on the back, etc... and I had to point out that, sure, to a teenager it may seem cool, but it's really not. I am always fascinated by how men deem female deviant sexual behavior as cool and "sexy." Strippers, call girls, those idiot women who live with Hugh Hefner, they're all thought to be attractive in a way. But I think their reality is far from that. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that women who engage in abnormal sexual practices probably have serious emotional issues that stem from their childhoods. And, yes, men may reap the benefits of this, but it annoys me that there's not more sensitivity to the fact that these women are obviously feeling bad about something in their lives and they're expressing it through behaviors that could seriously hurt them.

Bottom line: men are animals. I kid! I kid because I love.
