[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know that older men and younger trophy wives have existed forever, but I feel that Trump took it to the next level by demonstrating to even conservative, aspirational, and ambitious men that there are absolutely no societal or professional consequences and opprobium any more for dumping a longtime spouse in favor of an affair partner.  If anything Trump shows that such a partner can further and assist in your ambition by making you look younger, or bringing in other professional connections, or simply making you happier with more sex.  It makes me sad to see that wives are considered disposable.  Anecdotally I have seen a rash of divorces, including some Texas friends who have been together since college (now in their 50s), with children, who have moved around the country a lot so that he could advance in his career.  She is beautiful, fun, social, and they always seemed incredibly connected and happy.  But now that he earns many millions each year, he is out of the marriage.  I can tell you several other stories like that one.[/quote]

Uh, this is quite normal. Are you new to the world? My CEO recently married a 24yr old. He left his wife for her when she was 222. His wife was 48 and the mother to his 3 kids.

What kind of consequences would there be for our CEO? He still has a great career and a ton of respect from people who matter from an outside perspective. Trump is not special, nor did he start a trend. The more successful a man is the more young pu$$y is thrown at him.[/quote]

Since this information is obviously public knowledge, and true information, could you please PP post who the CEO of your company is, and include the company's name?  I, for one, would like to direct a little public opprobrium and snark his way.

In fact, we should have Jeff start a new public forum called TSL for The Scarlet Letter where people can post publicly available and truthful information about these corporate affairs that break up marriages (Wall Street, Washington, Silicon Valley, etc.) and name the parties involved.  Everyone is free to pursue a new life with whomever they want, but that does not mean that they shouldn't be subjected to a little public airing of their dirty laundry for it.[/quote]

WTF

Why would we do this? What happened is between him and his wife.[/quote]
