I did not know that being married is a career requirement for career advancement in the general public. I thought only politicians need that.
A propos politicians. The former mayor of San Francisco, a young and very handsome guy who made history by holding wedding ceremonies for gays and lesbians, which was later struck down as unconstitutional but still spurred progressive legislation in other states, at some point had an affair with the wife of his staffer. It became known and his PR department, pursuing their damage control goals, issued an apology adding that he would seek treatment for alcohol addiction.
The apology was to the general public. That included me.
Why did he owe me an apology for something that was happening in his private life. As far as I am concerned, he can have consensual sex with whomever he wants, married, single, divorced or whatever.
