Feeling a bit low about the men in my life atm. Is it just me, or whenever good men let you down does it always involve sex? I'm not talking about horrible or creepy men (I'd expect nothing less). I mean the men you considered good. The following examples were committed either by men I knew personally or by men other women have told me about. In every case we thought they were good people:
- Caught viewing indecent images of children.
- Caught arranging to meet an underage girl.
- Caught not just visiting escorts but writing reviews of his experiences on a website.
- Prosecuted for historic child abuse (a pre-pubescent girl).
- Caught having sex with a woman at a party when she'd passed out.
- Overheard in a pub saying that he goes to Thailand because of the underage girls.
- Caught filming women sunbathing in a park.
- Sacked from his job as a teacher for telling a 16-year-old pupil he was in love with her.
- Confronted by an angry father for staring at his young daughter while she played on a slide.
- Marrying a pretty girl from a very poor country who was 30 years younger than him (he not only thought he'd done nothing wrong but considered himself heroic for having 'rescued her').
- Caught importing a sex doll that looked like a child.
- Offering rooms on a "sex for rent" basis to young women.
When good women have let me down, it has almost never involved sex. Instead, it has usually involved jealousy or bitchiness. It's sad, but I just don't trust the vast majority of men when it comes to sex. It's like the male sex drive overpowers everything and turns good men into monsters.
