I can picture 50 partners for the late night bar population. Guys tend to exaggerate on such things, too.

Several years ago I asked my daughter, who was probably about 22-23 at the time, "Say you have a female friend who's about 28. How many partners will she have had?" And my daughter told me 10 partners. I was surprised. I knew people were much more sexually active than when I was growing up, but casual sex, as in "OK, you seem like a nice guy and we just spent 30 minutes engaged in small talk, let's have sex" is just hard for me to wrap my mind around. I accept that I'm a dinosaur, and I certainly don't judge people for their choices, but, man, I'm glad I'm not out there in the dating pool!

People know what they are doing, and I assume that they know when you would not be in a position to move or refuse or react. Happens all the time, and can be as simple as a grope or touch or actually set someone up for a more serious assault or rape. We are not supposed to 'fend off' as polite women in professional settings! Now that would be rude,

Didn't read anything on the "victims" age. I say that because as a willing participant I have no way of knowing how close to consenting age he was, where the difference here was she was a teacher and if this were not that type of situation, could be legal.
In my state, if he were 17 and a day and met her outside of school, sex would be legal, but they could both be charged with different child porn charges.
The more I read up on the background of Leeann Wheeden's complaint about Al Franken, the more skeptical I become. The look on the poor soldier's face says it all. http://verifiedpolitics.com/newly-re...ns-accusers-2/
Actually, I dont think photos “say it all” at all, but our video educated populace is hooked on them.
And is this where I insert a statement about victim shaming/blaming?
Gah, who cares about any of it. It is too bad that the tramautic incidents will be drowned out by noise like
Franken accusations.

Wihout hearing anything other than headline news ad nauseum, I would defend Al Franken before Roy Moore based on sins and the sinnng I know. I dont have to like either one of them, and I don't.
My comment about shaming the victim is just knee jerk conversation, it is de rigueur in these discussions.
