About perverts who are flashers. [View all]

When I was in college I had a gal pal, who had a younger sister, who was movie star gorgeous. She, of course, attracted all the hot guys, but by some joke of destiny also attracted sexual perverts. It wasn't that we didn't get the occasional pervert exposing themselves to us, especially at the beach, but little sister was getting unsolicited sexual harassment from strange men on an almost daily basis. It ranged anywhere from inappropriate grabbing of genitals in front of her, exposure of genitals, dirty talk and even having her hand grabbed and placed on some strange perv's junk at the movies.

Which brings me to Anthony Weiner. Some woman on Steph's show put her finger on it. Before the days of social media, he would have been hanging around the park in a rain coat flashing his junk to every attractive young woman who passed by. The guy is a sexual pervert and I don't know if there is a cure for that. All I can say is run Huma run.

Remember, this is not sexual deviance or a different approach to gaining sexual satisfaction. There is often an unwilling victim involved like my friend's little sister. Anthony Weiner is a sexual pervert IMHO.

Did he send his dick to random people?... allin99 Jul 2013 #1

Don't think that could have been done on a rotary phone. eom Cleita Jul 2013 #2

So the equivilant is not random flashing but... allin99 Jul 2013 #3

You're talking about consensual behavior, I think, but frankly I don't know what you are getting at. Cleita Jul 2013 #7

Right, which is why i asked, did he send his dick to random people... allin99 Jul 2013 #10

Even flashers are not random. They select their victims, usually very young pretty girls. Cleita Jul 2013 #12

i mean the people who he sent the texts to... allin99 Jul 2013 #27

I don't know what has become of this country. Cleita Jul 2013 #29

Why do you keep not answering the questions? JVS Jul 2013 #45

Probably because she's just been a flashee Aerows Jul 2013 #138

That makes no difference in the ability to know what the facts of the case are. JVS Jul 2013 #140

That may be true Aerows Jul 2013 #142

That's not what was asked. What was asked was whether the pics were unsolicited or not. JVS Jul 2013 #145

Hard to say Aerows Jul 2013 #146

At least one of the women from the original situation, tblue37 Jul 2013 #162

Ha! zappaman Jul 2013 #154

I know Aerows Jul 2013 #169

depends on what he did... allin99 Jul 2013 #48

Best post in this thread yet! Cleita Jul 2013 #79

I even wonder what role the NSA has had in our iemitsu Jul 2013 #164

Do we know for a fact that his sexting was unsolicited and unwanted? I was under the kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #57

Read some of the posts on this thread that explain that Cleita Jul 2013 #58

But... What about actual facts? whttevrr Jul 2013 #59

Try Google. If you haven't kept up with the news, that's where to start. Cleita Jul 2013 #60

Boy, you seriously need to take a chill pill. What's with the nastiness? kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #62

Get tired of this stuff. The truth is out there. Unless that person was in a cave until Cleita Jul 2013 #66

Is that how it works? whttevrr Jul 2013 #64

I'd imagine that if one indeed was curious enough LanternWaste Jul 2013 #73

See post 143 Kurt and Kestrel. That's just one of them that I had bookmarked. There were more Catherina Jul 2013 #149

Well if the women went along with the sex talk and were flirty, I can see where that might kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #61

See my post here. He did it on political forums, chat forums, places women were't looking for that Catherina Jul 2013 #172

Well that's just shameful. He needs to find a career other than politics. kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #177

Thanks Kestrel. It sure is. I can't even imagine someone doing such a thing. I'd be so angry! n/t Catherina Jul 2013 #180

I agree with you Politicalboi Jul 2013 #80

Agree Huma should cut her losses and get out. He will ruin her career Cleita Jul 2013 #85

I have no idea why she's still with him darkangel218 Jul 2013 #88
