I sometimes wonder why some people have the need to make public their private and lurid affairs, and I've come to the conclusion that narcissistic and disturbed individuals enjoy shocking people a kind of mental masturbation for their self-gratification and self-indulgences. The need to express their sexual exploits to thousands or millions of people isn't a sign of honesty, but a sign of deeply disturbed individuals.
The question here is, why is the paper publishing these details? Is it a subtle effort to weaken the moral fiber of society and conscientize the public on changing their perspective regarding their view of homosexuals? After all, McGreevey is selling his book.
However, the article emphasis is on McGreevey's sexual prowess, instead of his lack of support for his wife Dina when she was in the hospital giving birth to their daughter while McGreevey was having sex with Cipel.
If he was a Republican, the writing would've been different.
Ironically, McGreevey's screwed-up, pathological behavior is likely to turn people off in a way that his corruption never would.
