I 100% believe the accusations but oddly the only people I've seen carrying that story so far are religious websites.

I know that traditionally my opinion has been unpopular on this topic but while we should by default believe women, I think it's also important to keep an open mind when all of the accusers or reporters only come from one antagonistic side. Especially when Lindsey Graham was threatening to basically do this poo poo all the time now due to Kavanaugh not getting an easy pass

Edited: although I'll die on my weird safe sex hill, I guess. No one thinks their partner is cheating on them, but statistically most of us will cheat on or be cheated on by someone in a monogamous relationship, and should therefore should be taken into consideration.

Cheating seems like it would take way too much effort

This is why the McNulty "have sex with anything that moves, just cause" thing isn't what normally happens. Most adultery isn't some pre-meditated attempt to just get sex, it's a thing where a marriage has issues and one of the two partners finds themselves having feelings for someone outside of the marriage. Typically, the issues within the marriage resolve, the cheating partner apologies for their infidelity, and things move on. Granted I'm just talking from memory of my Human Sexual Behavior class from undergrad, and that was awhile ago, maybe the statistics have changed.

Is it safe to assume you're not famous and powerful? So when you, for example, take a third slice of pizza and leave one of your buddies with only one, your friends feel comfortable telling you you're a dick.

Imagine that everyone in your life tells you that you're special, that you're better than normal people, and that you're entitled to that slice of pizza. What would that do to your morals?

That's pretty much what I was getting at. Fame and power bring with them a sense of invulnerability that causes a lot of folks to behave like this. Politics and showbiz also tend to attract people with certain personality traits though, too...

Kind of, one way of "predicting" quakes is looking at the historical record and saying a quake happens about every X years, we've gone X + 100 without a big one so it could happen any time now. You're right it's certainly not on a timetable, but risk does accumulate in terms of strain. There's more and more stress being accumulated on faults, so we know a big quake is only getting more likely and when it happens it'll be pretty bad.

I am not an earthquake expert but I thought it specifically doesn't work like that. Like, there is tons of earthquakes all day every day, there isn't a separate store of 100 year old earthquake energy that builds up that gets saved for the big one separately. So it's mostly just a luck of the draw every X years if conditions do or don't make a big earthquake, waiting longer doesn't increase the odds beyond it being more time. (statistically at least, I am sure someone could find a specific fault that had specific energy building and building at a specific location, but not like, that is how earthquakes as a concept work)

The thing about cheating is that it is generally due to the insecurity of the cheating partner more than the desire for sex. You could have the perfect romantic partner and still cheat because you are insecure.

Clinton flavor of adultery is not actually that common, though. Most adultery is one spouse committing a single instance (or repeated instances with one person), and actually includes a romantic connection and not just a sexual one. Usually marriages move past it, oddly enough. What Clinton did as a President was collect women who felt like they couldn't say "no" as sex partners, because toxic masculinity being what it is, that is a symbol of power in our culture. The Lewinsky thing has more in common with the #metoo movement and it being revealed that every famous or powerful man is a sexmonster than it does with common marital infidelity.

While Bill was certainly credibly accused of impropriety and sexpestness for his behavior as Governor, and there is the Epstein crap after, there is no evidence that he 'collected women' as president.

Sort of an ackshually post I guess, but it is worth getting the timeline right imho.

In general yes, it would be best if you checked before doing this, but as USPOL is a quick-moving thread it is understandable that people do not.

In Chomskyan's case that tweet had just been posted within the last few pages so I would ask that you try a little bit more, thanks.
