Re: Gov. Spitzer Linked to Prostitution Ring

This conversation is very interesting and entertaining.

Look, I'm not a big Spitzer fan by any stretch of the imaginaton but at the end of the day here's a guy - a man - that has to put his life back together. And whether we take exception to his actions or not, there should at least be a shred of sympathy for him and his family.

It's so convenient for us to get on a board, disect one's personal life, provide commentary and cast judgement. Whether it's male bashing or female bashing, what we're really doing is human bashing. Look, this guy screwed up - big time. But let's not make him out to be the worst individual of all time.

Sorry, no sympathy for him. But for his family, yes.

Re: Gov. Spitzer Linked to Prostitution Ring

This is WEIRD...

Spitzer and his wife at the press conference following getting caught in adultery, then McGreevy and his wife at the press conference following getting caught in GAY adultery:



Coincidental? Silda Wall Spitzer, right, with husband Eliot, and Dina Matos McGreevey, with husband Jim, chose similar press conference outfits.

Re: Gov. Spitzer Linked to Prostitution Ring

I can't believe this thread has gotten bogged down in a gender debate.

We all know the important question is, "What does a $5,500 hooker look like and what exactly does she do to justify said rate?"

I like gender debates! Hell, I took an entire semester studying it, along with human sexuality. I don't see what's wrong with debating it. It looks like everyone just got all wrapped up in the hess stuff and decided to drop it.

It' kinda sucks because gender is such an expansive topic with many opinions and actually a lot of research if you bother looking it up. (I didn't have a choice. I had to). But it's a shame that because of one disagreement everyone wants to clamp up.

Re: Gov. Spitzer Linked to Prostitution Ring

It strikes me that if I were as ugly as Elliot Spitzer, and I managed by being a prominent person to snag a wife that far out of my league, the thought of visiting a whore would be the last thing to cross my mind. I would be too busy thanking God that a woman like his wife would give me the time of day. I wonder what this guy sees when he looks in the mirror? Does he not realize how hideously deformed he is? What a dope.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Plus what makes you think he wasn't dashingly handsome in his younger days?

Anyone else think I should close this thread in the interests of site harmony?

Nah. The "interests of site harmony" have never been a real concern before, why start now?

Someone owes us pictures of a $5,500/hour hooker before it gets locked.
