After this latest spiral down in the degradation of politics I feel like that kind of information would nearly be a badge of honor. When your highest seat of the government does pr0n stars, well, the bar is pretty low.
So by that logic JFK and MLK were also pretty low? Oh wait--I'm not sure they were doing actual porn stars.
Sexual aggression has been a virtue signal of male power and status since the days when kings compared the size of their slave harems. Modern men have been taught through all forms of commercial media that their value as people is directly proportional to the amount of casual sex they have. Culturally, power and sex have always been linked.
When Trump said he could just grab women by the pussy and get away with it, of course, he was right. At that level of privilege one often doesn't need to keep it in their pants. Propriety and chastity are for lesser men to whom legal and social consequences can be applied.
Maybe it's simply due to the existence of social media and an actual positive effect of "outrage culture" but a few decades ago such people would have been all but untouchable.
People who want lots of sexual partners seek ways to get that. Many people are attracted to the powerful. So people who can't stand to keep it in their pants are more likely to seek positions of power.
Isn't that an informal assessment of American culture?
Weird sex stuff can certainly be used to affect people in powerful corporate positions.
