Well, riddle me this, Batman: if a male politician had sex with legal age male prostitutes in Thailand, and then wrote a book about it, would he be able to hold a ministerial position in the US federal government?

If the answer to this question is "yes", then indeed you are not puritanical prudes.

This is the sort of idiocy that leads to hyperbole.  Yes there is absolutely nothing between embracing going abroad to hire prostitutes as being excellent behavior for prominent officials and being a puritanical prude.

It's not about embracing. It's about disregarding private sex life of politicians as long as it is nothing illegal.

American are puritanical prudes not because they do not embrace and cherish gay prostitution tourism (I bet many Frenchmen don't either) but because stuff like this is important to them when it comes to electing their officials.

What do you call a hobbit fancier? I must say I found Dominic Monaghan as Meriadoc quite hot.  :blush:

Well the context is important.  We elect all sorts of officials who are well known to sleep with alot of people and so forth.  What kills them is when they cheat on their spouses (that is just a recipe for disaster as everybody who has ever been cheated on will start breathing fire) or does something illegal like that Spitzer guy.

Here we go again. Well again look at the French. Their president cheated on his wife and then married his lover. Stop being such prudes.

They have "legal age" prostitutes in Thailand? :unsure:  I thought that would have been the retirement age. At least according to the Tv News. They wouldn't lie to me would they?
:p

Sorry I generally consider cheating on your spouse one of the mose pathetic and loathsome things you can do.  At least get a divorce first, it is not like it is hard.

Thai prostitutes of whatever age may well have been trafficked or otherwise subject to some form of compulsion, so yes, I think someone who regularly engages in such "tourism" suffers from a character defect which may legitimately be considered in evaluating that person's suitability for public office.

I don't know about France, but in this country having paid sex with underage prostitutes is illegal and can be prosecuted here, even if the acts took place in another country.

So it is about potentially illegal acts.
