A former Liberty University student says Becki Falwell, the wife of the universitys then-President Jerry Falwell Jr., jumped into bed with him and performed oral sex on him while he stayed over at the Falwell home after a band practice with her eldest son in 2008.
The student was 22 at the time of the encounter, near the start of Libertys fall semester. He said she initiated the act, and he went along with it. But despite his rejection of further advances, he said, Falwell continued pursuing him, offering him gifts and engaging in banter through Facebook messages.
She was the aggressor, he said.
The messages, screenshots of which were provided by the former student to POLITICO, suggest a flirtatious relationship that went beyond what might be expected of a mother communicating with her sons bandmate.

(19,370 posts)in that vein. Only amongst those who already want to give him a way to shift blame, true. But there's a lot of fundie grifters like him who have personal motivations to promote the forgiveness and redemption angle in case they ever get caught themselves. Anything which shifts some of the blame off of him and onto his wife lowers the bar he's got to get over to get the grift train back on track.

I'm thinking Becki's a legit horn dog.
If she wasn't a total phony and hypocrite in the other direction ...

(19,370 posts)have become public knowledge any of a large, large number of days in the past or the future. But it happened now. And it intersects with Falwell's first attempt, several days ago, to absolve himself of wrong doing in the pool boy story by claiming his wife had an affair and the paramour blackmailed him afterwards. Then that explanation falls apart because the pool boy had receipts, and now a couple days later we've got another story about his lascivious wife. It's convenient for Falwell given his apparently preferred defense strategy.
Did he, having known about this escapade, encourage this young man to come forward? Or did he point a reporter in his direction? I don't trust Falwell farther than I can throw him, and he's got to be attempting to spin and recover by media manipulation in some manner. If this is not that, okay. But, imo, it could be.

(8,251 posts)Definition of Cuckold from urban dictionary
A man who willingly encourages his wife to sleep with other people because it brings him pleasure. Cuckolds exist on a spectrum between two extremes. One on end is the masochistic cuckold who enjoys humiliations, degradation, and other demeaning activities at the hands of his wife and her lover. The alpha cuckold lies at the opposite end of the spectrum and does not enjoy any form of humiliation and often has a direct say in who his wife sleeps with and when.
She probably told him all about this encounter

There's been nothing too serious ... so, so far, we can still joke about this sex scandal ... even days into it.
This like, NEVER happens.
Stuff like this is always extreme if you hear about it.
I hope it doesn't get any worse.
Just funnier.
