No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I seem to remember a British study that showed that women were more likely to cheat, but were more discreet and better about hiding it.

I would question if this necessarily holds true for women in the public eye though. I mean, maybe it does, but I would speculate that famous women are and feel a) considerably more scrutinized and b) less able to weather the career consequences. So they might well be less likely to go there.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

brenda, that could very well be the case. I just like my sexes vilified equally. Heh.

I can't think of the last high profile woman caught in an affair. Of course, as I typed that, I remembered Iris Robinson an Irish politician who had an an affair with a 19 year old. She was 59. Yes, her last name really is Robinson.

Liz Taylor is one of the few I think managed to survive it and even so, at the time, she was absolutely vilified. I mean, she'd been riding a wave of sympathy as the grieving widow, then next thing you know, she's breaking up the marriage of America's Sweetheart.

It's amazing, given the era, that she managed to survive and managed to be given some of the largest roles of her career afterwards. I guess the scandal was still good box office, morals be damned.

Bwah! I was JUST coming to post about Liz Taylor!!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

What about Leann Rimes? Tori Spelling?

forgot about her. I think that women forgave her because Eddie Cibrian is so damned hot.

Tori Spelling?

did anyone care?

Also, Princess Diana.

I think that there was a lot of speculation, but it was never proven. And she was villified, but it was more because Dodi was "of color" than anything else, I think.

Not Dodi - the horse riding guy and her head of security dude, also.
