Texas Congressman Joe Barton sent nudes and illicit text messages to a woman, and he's apologizing for the graphic image first revealed by a Twitter user.
Barton, a Republican, sent the nude photo showing his penis. The Twitter user censored the image, and also revealed a sext that reads, "I want u soo bad. Right now."

What’s interesting here is that it may very well have been requested and consensual. He was divorced too.
They are actually looking at prosecution under revenge porn laws in Texas. It’s illegal there, and if ever there was an instance of it, this may well be it.
One of the things that makes some men very sexy is *precisely* the sense one gets that they are in control of those powerful urges; it gives them a dignity and aura of reserve strength.
A lot of older men still have that.
I understand guys do this. I do understand how that has become a “tell me about yourself” kind of thing.
Some things might be better left to discovery in the normal ways, just sayin'. And I know you'd agree. :-)
Just old enough to understand human nature more than I did in my 20's.
Another dumb prick. It appears the lesson he took away from the Weiner saga was ...”hmmm, not a bad idea there, Carlos.”
Like Sam Elliot?
FLASHBACK:
What Fort Worth-area lawmakers think of Donald Trump

U.S. Rep. Joe Barton, R-Ennis
“If he’s our nominee, I’ll support him and vote for him. I have an obligation to support him. It would be pretty hypocritical of me not to support Mr. Trump. I do think he’s not our perfect nominee. I do think he’s also showing an ability to bring people in who have not traditionally voted for someone in our party.”
It would be pretty hypocritical when you’ve been horn dogging and sending nudes, and Trump was just locker room talking. But thanks for your support.
Maybe he felt like he could trust her.
There’s no fool like an old fool.
Yes - but I was thinking of Gregory Peck and Gary Cooper, in the movies.
“I’m sort of assuming that most men have sent junk pics at some point in their life.”
I have SERIOUS doubts as to the truth of that assumption.
I can tell you categorically that I’ve never even come anywhere CLOSE to entertaining the idea, much less doing it, and IF any guy I know actually has, they fer SURE as Hell haven’t copped to it, and are likely going to go to their grave wishing they could have that one back.
ABSOLUTELY NO guy EVER has in my presence mentioned doing that, and NEVER have I heard anyone brag about it.
I’d surmise that your assumed cadre of guilty parties number somewhere below the number of men struck by lightning.
Twice.
On different days.
At different places.
This is as stupid as anything Anthony Wiener could have done.
It might have been stupid, but who are you to say that it's bad behavior in a consensual relationship?
I am sick and tired of people like you...
Don't read my posts. You won't hurt my feelings.
I don’t think men over a certain age have done it, or do it.
But I tend to think that it’s fairly common in the under 30 set.
Absolutely!
What IS it with old, fat, pot-bellied men showing off their wrinkly dangly parts?? It’s never anything you want to see,yet they’re sooo proud! Sad and pathetic, really. Laughable.
Lemme guess - he meant to send them to his wife but he hit “reply to all”?
Soooooo he managed to get the turkey AND the baster all in one photo.
Yiiick.
