The And Of The Affair

Phhttt.
i was wondering why people were so down on Barbara Walters about exposing her affair.
This article helped not at all.
These articles always seem to be status reports, saying pretty much exactly what you already know. And these arguments always end up with only the ends of the spectrum staunchly robed in their own righteousness willing to say anything.
It's all well and good when no one is in love
and yet
but still

The one newish thing for me was 'men need to project their own sexual feelings onto a “dirty whore,”' because that component didn't quite occur to me in that way before, how all the blame could be shifted onto the women in a man's mind, for her very existence to be as an object which tempts them to sin.
Pity these innocent, defenseless victims.
Aww, poor baby needs a hand (job)?

It's always between "are you lying or are you stupid?" and neither answer is good, but so often the honest answer really is "I don't know."
But the real question is do you want to know?

And then there's all those people who lie. Maybe they like it, maybe they don't know how not to, but it doesn't really matter because they're gonna do it.
Lie, that is, whether or not they know it, whether or not they like it.
The sad thing is
well, it's all just a sad thing
because no one is really have as good a time as they could.
It's all such a waste
of time.
