Gaetz Participated in Sleazy Sex Competition in Florida Legislature: Repor

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) took part in a competition among men in the Florida state legislature in which they ranked and scored their sexual encounters, Insider reported on Friday.

Gaetz, 38, served in the Florida House from 2010 to 2016, when he was elected to Congress. Sleeping in a sorority house and bedding married legislators were reportedly vaunted achievements in the games. Sleeping with one unnamed woman was the grand prize, and the doer of the deed “won the whole game regardless of points,” according to a GOP operative who worked with Gaetz and spoke to Insider. In a reference to the Harry Potter books, she was nicknamed “the snitch.”

"Snitch" in this case was a Harry Potter reference, adding a whole other layer of adolescent sleaze.
