Lust In My Heart - It Should Never Stay There, But For Wives And Politics

Jimmy Carter, former President of the United States admitted in a Playboy interview that he 'looked on a lot of women with lust' and had 'adultery in his heart', but he had remained faithful to his wife of many years, Rosalynn. 

 

It was not surprising that Carter had lust in his heart - all men have it till their dying day - but that he never acted upon it.  Every President in American history has had lovers, not just the Lothario of the Oval Office, JFK.  The Secret Service pimped for LBJ who was legendary and insatiable.  He was not only eclectic in his taste for women, he was indifferent. Whomever he found in his bed at night provided by his security detail, he simply said 'roll over'. 

Even the dour, jowly, unpleasant, and unloved Richard Nixon was reported to have a lover - a tarty woman secreted into Camp David when he was up their without Pat.  FDR had a longtime lover who was a fixture at Campobello. 

Every single one of them going back to Jefferson and Washington had lovers.  Sexual dalliance was a perk of office, an entitlement of power.  Henry Kissinger, National Security Advisor to Nixon and his Secretary of State said that 'Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac' and he, a fattish, ugly, Jewish man had a sex life not even imaginable for men far more physically desirable. 

Martin Luther King was such a pussy hound that the FBI couldn't keep up with him.  A declassified memo from Herbert Hoover whose particular obsession was MLK, betrayed a strange and peculiar admiration for a man who 'could fuck through a hole in the wall'.  Hoover was a closeted gay man who secretly dreamed of San Francisco bath houses where that was exactly what one did, and so the nation's G-man conflated the two and found King enviable. 

Foreign presidents from Putin to Kim Jong Un, throughout Europe and Asia have had lovers.  Stalin had a harem of women from all corners of the Soviet Union.  He is said to have preferred Asiatic women from the eastern reaches of the empire, but his many lovers from the West attested to his catholic tastes. 

Every Japanese shogun had his geisha, and every Chinese dynastic ruler enjoyed women taken in territorial conquest.  The harem of Suleiman the Great, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire was world famous for the beauty and seductive allure of its women.  The shahs of Persia courted the empire's mostdesirable women in the gardens of Persepolis. 

Former French President Sarkozy kept his mistress at the Elysees Palace, the French White House; and at former President Mitterrand's funeral, his wife, his mistress, and their illegitimate daughter all were present at graveside. 

When President Bill Clinton was caught in flagrante delicto with intern Monica Lewinsky, he at his lawyerly best parsed, 'It all depends on what it is', denied 'having sex with that woman', implying that fellatio was not in the canon, and was impeached. 

Every African man on the continent howled with laughter as the Washington melodrama unfolded.  What was all the fuss about, they asked over beers in the quartier? It was part of manhood to have sex every day with whomever came along, and it was the privilege of their Presidents-for-Life to have the very best.  Alfonse Ngoma of Cameroon was their hero, a man whose retinue included the most beautiful Fulani and Tuareg girls, Angolan mestizas, and Egyptian princesses. 

So when news of Bill Clinton's Oval Office episode - the dress stain, the cigar - reached African ears, men were at first surprised - why hadn't he fucked her outright? - and then flabbergasted.  What was the most powerful man in the world doing with an overweight intern under the Lincoln desk?  Kennedy had Marilyn Monroe!

 

So it was with some surprise that Carter was perhaps the only faithful president ever, at least until Joe Biden.  Biden might have caroused in his younger days but as President was too demented to tie his shoes let alone chase women. When that mental vacancy was added to the censorious MeToo feminist hysteria of the times, there was no chance that he wandered off the rails. 

Donald Trump has squired beautiful women throughout his career in New York and Hollywood, has made no secret of it, has proudly sponsored beauty contests where the nation's most gorgeous women assembled and were treated by him to luxury, jewels, and his seductive attention. 

So it was either that after such a full, rich, and satisfying sexual life he turned his attention to the more heady matters of state; or that because of his reputation he continued to have lovers and no one paid attention.  In any case, Africans love Donald Trump. 

Perhaps after so many years of sexual censoriousness, the deification of women, the punitive hands off No Means No attitude, and the universal calumny against predatory, ignorant men, the tide is turning. Perhaps sexual dalliance is not the issue it used to be.  In an era of virtual reality, AI, and fake news, what is truth, honesty, and objectivity anyway?

Pregnancy is no longer an issue unless you pick the wrong woman.  There's always that Fatal Attraction, Match Point movie moment when the man says, 'I'll help you sort it out', the woman says she wants to keep it, and murder follows.  But such is the stuff of melodrama and pregnancy is not the threat it was. 

Women have broken through the glass ceiling.  There are more female lawyers than the legal bin can hold, and female doctors galore.  All of these women are self-sufficient, determined, and in control, so they are just as likely to wander as their male colleagues, thus further removing the sting of infidelity. 

So why is infidelity still such a big thing, and why do women hold men to such impossible standards? When American women heard of Bill Clinton's dalliances, they said that one size fits all - a philanderer cannot be trusted with the nation's welfare - and they would no longer vote for him. 

It is something hardwired in the female brain, or more deeply in her DNA? Keeping a man around in cave man days made ultimate sense.  Men were needed to hunt, fight aggressive tribes, and protect women during pregnancy, childbirth and child-rearing when they were physically compromised. 

That paradigm persisted well into the Twentieth Century when women were still beholden to their husbands who were unfortunate necessities. Now, however, all that has changed, so why have we not moved to a more sexually forgiving world?

There are signs.  Single motherhood approaches fifty percent of all births in many countries; and baby mommas - perhaps the most telling expression of Wild West American sexuality - may be the new normal. 

Joe Biden, it was widely reported, wanted to replace Bill Clinton as the first real white black president; but Biden's interest went further than civil rights and empathy.  He secretly envied black men for their uninhibited sexual lives, their serial lovers, and their hundreds of children - all without opprobrium or suspicion.  No Means No has no place in the ghetto. 

American liberals have raised inner city, ghetto culture to new heights. It is the best example of true, dynamic multiculturalism, a blend of African tribalism, early American Southern tradition, black pride and defiance, and a vital entrepreneurial culture.  True, the drug trade is illegal, but still one must applaud the very enterprising, canny, and brilliant ways black men are experience the American dream. 

So, within that context, there is nothing wrong with serial sex, baby mommas, and a sexual profligacy unmatched anywhere in the world except Africa. 

Yet, the sexual revolution still has a way to go.  Men have to wait a bit longer before they can be on their own.  Women, frying pan in hand, ready to brain their wayward husbands, still greet their 'working late at the office' husbands with, 'Where on earth have you been?'

Politicians still have to project an image of marital fidelity, nose-to-the-grindstone singularity of purpose, honesty, and transparency.  If a politician is even accused of infidelity, his political future is all but ended. 

Neither class of men - husbands and politicians - pay too much attention to this accusatory opprobrium. They go about their sexual business under wraps. After all it is the thrill of the chase and the challenge of keeping it quiet which fuels affairs. 

All of America's top politicians, especially those with presidential ambitions make every effort to show off their families - happy families with beaming wives and smiling children.  In other words, the hypocrisy continues.  Each and every man Jack among them has lust in his heart, and if history is true to form, they will act on it. 

It takes time to remove all the sludge from clogged pipes, so American society still has a ways to go before the water runs freely; but it soon will, and men will regain their footing as unconcerned, unrepentant lovers. Multiculturalism will help that along, given progressives' unquestioned support of the black man and his open-field sexuality.
