Anthony Weiner loves the ladies, and apparently they love him back.

Sugar daddy dating website SeekingArrangement.com found that 78 percent of female clients aged 18-26 approve of Weiner.

The website, which connects wealthy patrons with attractive clients, surveyed over 18,000 of its female members and discovered that 63 percent of all women surveyed approved of the New York City mayoral hopeful, with the highest approval ratings coming from the 18-26 demographic.

Weiner resigned his congressional seat in 2011 after a sexting scandal – dubbed "Weinergate" – revealed he was sending explicit messages to women while he was married.

A second scandal erupted during Weiner's 2013 run for New York City mayor. Under the alias "Carlos Danger," Weiner continued to send sexts to at least three other women. Despite calls for him to drop out, Weiner continues his campaign.

A breakdown of SeekingArrangement.com's stats reveals a 35 percent approval rate (1,833 approve out of 5,287 surveyed) for women 27-34 and 21 percent approval (327 approve out of 1,094 surveyed) from women 35 and older.

"Weiner has a way with women, as shown by our sugar babies' approval rating," said Brandon Wade, Founder and CEO of SeekingArrangement.com. "Regardless of popular belief, not all women are turned off by Weiner. With a 78 percent approval rating, the mayoral candidate clearly has a hold of the younger female vote."

So, why do younger women love Weiner? Power.

Women rated power his most attractive quality. Second place was his occupation followed by intelligence, money and looks.

The survey was conducted July 22. Results were released Monday.

That should read “78% of filthy whores who'll spread their legs for anyone with money support Weiner”.

It's New York City.
It's Democrats.
Weiner can still win by a landslide.

Democrats don't give a rat's ass about character, honesty, integrity, or any of that other old-fashioned crap. For Democrats it's all about...

During this pole, did they capitalize the “w”?
If so, that’s bad.

Seriously though, they got this poll from a sugar daddy website. So, the female members from that site already have some issues and probably don’t provide a very representative sample of the wider younger female population. At least, one would think so.

Ive never encountered anyone who looks QUITE like lil Anthony Weiner

To me, especially when he was a congressman and appeared on new shows running his big mouth, with that huge beak, he always looked like a bald baby bird opening wide for a fresh worm from Momma bird.

But Anthony Weiner is not wealthy and has no skills except for holding elected office.

63% and 78% might approve of weiner but definitely not Weiner. No woman with just a minute bit of self respect would want anything to do with that sick perverted filth.

I am shocked that a website devoted to matching hookers with johns (indicated in the second sentence) finds that the females in question have a favorable view of A. Weiner...

He is a celebrity of sorts and we all know that being well known, even well-known, but not well-regarded can be parlayed into dollar signs. He will write a book, make speeches, give paid interviews, etc. His notoriety will translate into money. The sugar babies/gold diggers can smell money.

The jokes and visual spoofs on Weiner’s weiner are easy to make and I’ve made some myself, but yours have risen above all the rest! Well done.

Boy, you got that right. Please recall that a great many young women sent fan mail to the Boston Bomber. They were, unfortunately, born brainless.

What a totally misleading headline. It makes it sound as if there was a poll among women representing the age group cited, whereas it is from a very select group:

Sugar daddy dating website SeekingArrangement.com found that 78 percent of female clients aged 18-26 approve of Weiner.

&&
Well, yes, women of questionable character, who would be the clients of such a website, would have no problem with the character flaws of the pervert named Weiner.

78 percent of female clients aged 18-26 ................................... Ah, yes, the heads of mush age. Figures.

***
Now, hold on. I would be the last one to take up for the moral or intellectual strength of women in this age group, but, despite the misleading headline, the 78% approval rating came just from a polling of tramps who frequent a particular website in search of johns.

To: Logical me

Looks like 78% of young women lost their morals.

***
I would say that 100% of the women who utilize the website that conducted the poll have no morals. It is a site that matches call girls with clients.

Does this mean 22% want nothing to do with Weiner?

No, it’s a poll of women customers of a sugar daddy web site.

Not exactly representative of young women overall.

Yeah, but why would they like a guy who has no money, and who was kicked out of the self-admitted, only career he was good at.
