I know this has been the topic of a lot of blogging lately, but I had to get my two cents in here as well. Above is a link to an ABC newsclip that was posted on Yahoo's front page explaining "why powerful men cheat." Reasons include (but are not limited to): needing the "next jolt" after becoming so powerful they fancy themselves "invincible" and (wait for it...) a neurological disorder in the frontal lobe. That's right, sports fans: now men exploit, humuliate and dehumanize women because there is something wrong with their brains.

The clip also explores the "trend" of powerful men who has cheated on their wives/been caught hiring sex workers and compares their explanations. I wonder what will happen the first time we find a powerful woman has strayed from her marital vows-- my guess is that we won't see her husband standing supportedly by as the media paints her to be a homewrecking whore.
