Men have been having affairs for eons does it matter in the public sphere?

Anthony Weiner is just the latest politician on either side of the aisle at either the state or federal level to be caught being unfaithful.

I don't know. Does it matter? It ought to matter to the folks involved, but is it any of my business? Or yours? When those involved are consenting adults (i.e. no one is taking advantage of a vulnerable adult or committing a crime against a child) does it mean anything? Sure, they lie about it. But does that mean they lie about everything or just that our society really, really, really has a problem with sex?

I think it might be the latter.
