Well, based on my personal experience men are idiots, especially when it comes to sex. ---

I think you guys are being a bit hasty. There is a wide spectrum of blow-job ability and quality ranging from the teeth-scraping novice to a mind-altering experience that only the truly gifted can bestow. I think we’ll have to see just where she ranks on the scale before we can call this man an idiot. We’ll need a sample size of at least 20. We can carpool if you like. ---

TL;DR of the article: school psychologist had affair with mother of one of the students. At the time the woman had a “commuter marriage”, that is, she was separated de facto although not legally. ---

So Mehrbachs are the new Lewinskis. $34,000 year tuition? For grade school? ---

Well, you get to go to school and be childhood friends with the children of all the biggest movers and shakers in the USA. Normally you have to go to Harvard or Yale for that and still don’t get such concentrated networking. Now if you want that for your kids, $34k a year per child is a bargain, assuming you are being paid what that crowd gets paid. On the other hand, I wouldn’t want anything to do with the beltway crowd, and doubly so for my hypothetical children. ---

You could start a dating website and call it “Safer Women”, but I bet business would be slow. ---

Wow, what a mess. Man lives in LA, wife lives in DC with daughter. Wife wants to send daughter to posh private school. Has school psychologist evaluate daughter for advanced curricula. Psychologist and wife start hooking up. Psychologist’s daughter is same age, so they get together frequently. Apparently this became known at the school but not addressed by administration. Ongoing professional relationship with daughter while banging mom. Traded explicit emails during work on work computer. Oops. Apparently said psychologist was also the sex ed teacher at the school. Psychologist’s ex wife conversed with him about the affair - thus quotes in OP. Finally original husband finds out about affair, files for divorce, sues school and psychologist. It comes out that the psychologist was telling details of his patients to his girlfriend, the woman from above. A separate family complained to the school about it. > [@hogarth](#): > > And the psychologist is a real piece of dirt, who joked about telling the daughter that he jacked off on her mother’s face. But he’s the sex ed teacher, so that’s just part of explaining the kinds of things that go on, right? :rolleyes: ---
