Of course not. Nor if you don’t make eye contact; definitely not if it happens in international waters.

It’s the old three rules of Not Gay.

And as a gay man, I resent not being invited to be the other guy.

I actually laughed out loud that one photo published in the press was a picture of his bare chest(before the dick pics) how scandalous a man’s exposed breasts!!😛

However, he was accused of sending unsolicited pics & propositions to women whom he barely knew.

AFAIC, the scandal isn’t the infidelity (or attempt at infidelity), it’s how UNBELIEVABLY FUCKING STUPIDLY he went about it. Anyone who lacks the foresight to predict how that “sending naked pictures over Twitter” thing is going to work out should most assuredly not be party to decisions affecting the whole country.

Seriously, who cares a whit about Anthony Weiner any more?

His 15 mins are up, thank heaven. And I agree with **DianaG** , it’s not the nature of the pictures or whom he sent them to, it was the arrogance of thinking he’d not get caught. And then, when he did, to lie, and lie about it.

A startling contrast, when you remember he was considered a goer, a golden boy, of the hour. Intelligent, well liked, well connected, poised to reach great heights. Pissed it all away chasing some out of town strange on Twitter. Apparently not so bright after all!

Only the NY post would believe he still has public interest. In fact, I’m so cynical I suspect it was a leak from his people, just trying to keep his name in the news. Kind of like celebrities (usually has beens) who get photographed in some shitty outfit, which they appeared in, hoping to make the, ‘Fire Your Stylist’, column in People, or Us, or whatever.

Jon and Kate, the Palins, Weiner boy, I say good riddance to the lot of them.

"It’s a big office and you know that’s not the only thing here that’s big,” Weiner wrote.

Seriously, this guy should write for The Onion.

I aways assumed the initial twitter post was a mistake, in that he accidentally made it somehow. The rest is probably a kind of generational misunderstanding, among men my age ALL have done what Weiner did or worse and most of the women too. It will be amusing when mid twenties start filling political office, everyone will have dirt!
