this story was featured on feministe as the “craziest sex scandal yet”. as a jew and a trans woman, i know a little about power dynamics, what it feels like to be seen as a monster, and what it feels like to be told about monstrous people, in excruciating detail. and i’ve encountered a few monsters myself.
frankly, i’m not impressed.
what people do in their bedrooms is their own business, and i’m not in the habit of judging others. on the other hand, i’m also not in the habit of video taping my own bedroom antics, and allowing that to be posted on the internet. as far as i’m concerned, this man is an idiot. not for what he does, but for broadcasting what he does to the world. for what he does, he might just be an anti-semite and a sexist pig. which, by itself, should be enough to get him fired. except in this crazy world of ours. that just might get him promoted.

holy moley… American sex scandals seem so tame… American: politician hires a hooker British/Euro: multiple partners in a nazi concentration camp scenario???
Sheesh!!
