He’s a pervert, a sexual predator, and he needs to be punished. Actually, I know a lot people who enjoy being punished… but that’s another story.
David Wu is in trouble for being “acting in a sexually aggressive manner towards” an 18 year old daughter of one of his supporters. The age thing aside (he’s 56), he’s a man. A recently divorced man with a lot of stress being a US Congressman. And a man with a lot of power and opportunity.
In my mind, the only thing he really did wrong was pick the wrong girl to hit on. I’m sure it was really smooth like, “Hey baby, you raise my funds, if you know what I mean…”
But let’s talk about that “Sexual Predator” thing… Women like a strong man, and honestly, a lot of women like to be dominated, if only a little, by a sexually aware, aggressive man. Or… a sexual predator.
You see, I don’t think we actually punish men for being sexual predators — we punish them for being lame. Jack Nicholson doesn’t seem to get a lot of shit for being a sexual predator (and he’s an ugly mofo). In a recent Rolling Stone interview he hit a few salient points:
- Jack calls the hours between two and four in the morning his “ass-scratching hours”
- Jack claims never to have bought a condom, but explains, “if I needed a porn picture or something like that, my staff normally does that kind of shopping for me.”
- Jack can’t remember the word “monogamous,” presumably from lack of use in … life
- Jack estimates that, in terms of age of sexual partners, he’s “covered the territory from twenty-one to sixty-one” in the last year
Now you can say, “But Jack Nicholson isn’t a Congressman.” And I say, “No, he’s a very wealthy man with more power than a run-of-the-mill congressman.”
See, Wu had this problem. He got divorced, got depressed, and then tried to deal with his depression while hiding it. Jack gets depressed and tells the press to fuck off. Wu hits on an 18 year old and pisses her off. Jack hits on a 21 year old, beds her, and moves on with no questions or baggage. And if he does fail to bed her, then she laughs it off and tell stories about the time Jack Nicholson chatted her up.
If they would just let the Congressmen act like any other famous, powerful man, we wouldn’t have these damn “sex scandals” while trying to fix the world economy…
