Sex, Affairs, Sexting and Scandals: How Smart Men End Up Doing Really Stupid Things

Reading posts on various sites reveals that this hot button topic has stirred outrage, dismay and fury over Mr. Weiner's "betrayal of public office" as claimed by many.   It is an increasingly serious issue in this modern world of instant access to all levels of pornography online via computers, iphones, and through social media vehicles that encourage sexting.  Adults and children alike who participate in sexting or other forms of "public" sexual activities take unconscionable risks, either out of intent or youthful ignorance. Such self absorbed behaviors destroy careers, marriages, families and other relationships. Bright futures are consumed by shadows of yesterdays.    


"First of all, it should be no surprise to anyone that it isn’t just men in power who act out sexually. Undoubtedly there are enough chronically unfaithful and sexually addicted regular guys currently screwing up their committed relationships, marriages and careers, either in online sexual activity, in strip clubs, massage parlours or with prostitutes and affairs, to prove that point."

"These repetitive, problematic sexual faux pas are the reactive, denial based, tunnel-vision decisions of overstressed, emotionally challenged individuals either unable or unwilling to accept the simple human needs we all share for honest, vulnerable, intimate connection, rest, self-care and an ongoing active process of self-examination."


Additionally, ongoing contemplation of spiritual values and path toward realizing a higher purpose in life may be of even greater value overall.
