(CNN)Josh Duggar, the eldest of the Duggar children, is going into rehab, the family said in a statement Wednesday.

"Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center," the family said in a posting on duggarfamily.com. "For him it will be a long journey toward wholeness and recovery. We pray that in this he comes to complete repentance and sincere change.

"In the meantime, we will be offering our love, care and devoted support to Anna and our grandchildren as she also receives counsel and help for her own heart and future," the statement continued.

Probably just another "Christian" labor camp.

Either way makes me wonder what else is about to be leaked.

You know really, I have been wanting to see the list. I want to see if there are any people I know, other than Josh, on that list. There are people I suspect will turn up on it.

Remember that signing up doesn’t mean an affair. There were a very small number of women signed up. Even those with paid accounts probably couldn’t find an available woman.

The premise of the site is “Why can’t a woman be more like a man?” Women aren’t like men. If a woman is going to have an extramarital affair, overwhelmingly it’s going to be with a man she knows from her job.

Not that overwhelmingly.

Women do have mindless hookup sex.
But generally with a sure bet.
Attached women who have relationship free sex generally know other women who also do. They share someone discrete, capable, clean, witty, and usually younger and with endurance.

Often that will be a paid relationship.

It’s not going to be someone who might know people the women know. And they aren’t going to meet at bars or hotels.

Prostitution is a separate issue from married women who have affairs.

I expect that most of the women signed up for "Ashley Madison" are busy prostitutes.

The name of the rehab center was not mentioned, but may be the same place he went to last time around, which I read was run by Bill Gothard’s organization. If that is the case this time I am really not hopeful that he will get the treatment he needs. Bill Gothard and his organization is screwed up to the max. So how could they help Josh?

Not entirely separate.

The majority men who sign up at Ashley Madison are unlikely to be naive enough to imagine that they will get a fling for free. But they don’t let the risk of getting caught stop them even if Internet arranged rendezvous are only a few steps up from street prostitutes and escort services in terms of confidentiality.

Women who have affairs want to know what they are getting. Few of them will be on a. Internet site because they can’t see what they are getting.

And women who don’t want to get caught absolutely aren’t going to be giving up a credit card number, or logging on from a computer that they are known to have access to.

they [men] don’t let the risk of getting caught stop them ... even when (with Ashley Madison) the possibility of arranging a heterosexual adulterous rendezvous is statistically near zero.

On the other hand, if a woman looking, she can easily find a man in her social circle, so why go the Internet route?

This simply reflects the promiscuity of men as compared to that of women. Even an old lady like me could find an affair in easy proximity, if she wanted to.
