[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is with this new cultural trend where women who knowingly have affairs with married men are absolved? "Well, she's not the one who's married, she didn't do anything wrong" Seriously? She knowingly had an affair with someone who was married - she did a horrible thing to the wife and any children involved. (Yes, this was inspired by the thread about the congressman who cheated on his wife with an ISIS widow lol)[/quote]

I don’t think they’re absolved, they’re just the less guilty of the two parties and it’s very outdated to vilify the woman while the man proceeds as usual— ask Monica Lewinsky how that felt. [/quote]
But Monica Lewinsky herself has said that she was a dumb 24yo and that it is the biggest regret of her life. She has publicly apologized to Hillary and Chelsea repeatedly. She did not ask Clinton for hush money like this ISIS woman did[/quote]

She has also said, recently, how messed up the entire reaction was, as well as noting that Clinton is still invited to participate in events as the philanderer while she is disinvited. I think the changed public view of her role reflects the evolving public view on affairs. I also think older men put a huge amount of pressure on young women in the workplace and so not all affairs are fully consensual. So, I tend to “blame” the person with more power and more responsibility. [/quote]
