Monica Lewinsky in New clothes campaign

Sounds like it's fine to be the Other Woman as many times as you want as long as you are younger than the man and he is doing better professionally.

Is there an age cut-off for this, or such a woman is seen as a victim in perpetuity?

I am a woman and I find this mentality insulting. It's wrong when a man does it-- and it's wrong when a woman does it, too.

I was hit on endlessly starting my career at 25. Not once did I ever think of crossing my line of doing anything with a married man. And, no, not even if he were President.

That said, she did not deserve the vitriol and hate she received for such a long time. And, he was gross for his lies and denial. He should have owned his mistakes from Day 1. His lying is what was his downfall, not the actual action. If he confessed and appeared remorseful. w/out trashing her--he would have come out of the entire thing looking better. It really forever tarnished him--even to this day.

^ and I would be more forgiving in the mistakes of the youth with a controlling older man--than if this were a 35-50 year old woman.

A gnat probably couldn't even land on that tiny micropenis of yours.


And a bus could probably drive through that vagina of yours.


Maybe, but at least I'm not an angry incel


Of course you're not an incel, everyone knows you're a weirdo cat lady.

100%!! I can't believe there are people who say she's a role model. For what?!

She is free to live her life now but she absolutely made bad choices and people are free to morally judge that.

She made bad choices 100%

She also was being taken advantage of by men in positions of authority over her. Adiing to that, she was vulnerable to being taken advantage of because she had mental/emotional problems that made her seek attention and affection in strange ways.

She is responsible for her part in this, but I do think there are some factors here which make it a little more understandable at least. Not absolving her in any way, but I have some pity for her.

I have always been conflicted about her-she is responsible, but also a victim. It is difficult to have both of these thoughts at once, even if it is reality.

How long should her sentence be, do you think?

She is savvy, that one.


Agree! It was a setup from the beginning. Who saves a dress with semen on it? Both parties were wrong in the affair but she’s the one who profits from it. And what great work has she done?


IIRC Linda Tripp was the one who encouraged her to keep the dress.

I think she paid a pretty hefty price. Her life was pretty much destroyed in her 20s. She never got married or had kids. She had to leave the country to heal. I do give her credit for coming through all of that-that could not have been easy. I’m not going to be nasty or rude about her at this point.

+1 Better at 50, than in her early 20s. Damn- I feel old. I am 3 years older than her and remember when this exploded---especially her and Tripp at Pentagon City Mall which I lived next to at the time.

Ok she made a bad choice. But if you judge her 25 years later, that’s really says more about you.

I am slightly younger and had just been a White House intern the previous summer. Sad that it became such a joke, because that was a big deal. (Fun fact - our current prez wrote my rec letter for that internship). My roommate was working for mark penn during the impeachment, too, while I was working on Capitol Hill. I remember all the reps who were outed having affairs and trying to pass those off as “youthful indiscretions”

I was her age when the scandal happened. It was wrong how she was treated.


I hope Linda Tripp and Ken starr are in Hell standing on their head in a pool of their own body excrement for eternity.
