If you expect me to uncover the Truth in this review, you won’t get it, as the scope of placing this topic is slightly different.

For centuries adulteries have been a common practice among people, and if one thinks this happens only with men, he would be surprised to know that women are not less prone to cheating and, according to some estimates, about 20-25% of fathers are raising not their own children.

Emperors, kings, other royal persons, presidents, member of parliaments, and many other politicians from time to time fall into the trap of either a short affair or a longer love adventure. Sometimes it is just about pure sexual attraction, sometimes it is caused by boredom in life, often it is caused by routine and disappeared attraction in the family - you know the stuff.

Love is Life and, according to Freud, is a most potent driver on Earth - God has created us like that. However, God also commanded us not to cheat. That is why humanity for ages is still arguing about the morality of not being faithful.

It is not my goal to plunge into this endless story - in the end, the God will judge everyone for his sins.

My thoughts are about something else: is it moral and is it really helpful to use sex in politics?

What is ultimately the effect of disclosing Berlusconi’s personal love affairs, especially if he is getting divorced? Who benefited in the long run from filming the sexual intercourse of the Romanian Consul in Moldova with a Moldovan employee (a colleague, later nicknamed Moldovan Mata-Hari), and exposing this on Internet?

If a politician is doing well and he is a good leader and people support him, I guess only the God has the right to judge him for his own love affairs, and not the public (obviously if it is not something against the law like pedophilia, etc.). If a responsible government employee is doing well his job and not disclosing any state secrets, why setting up and leaking such intimate information? In most cases there is no true effect, but it definitely leads to personal reputation damaged for life, destroyed families, ashamed kids.

Is this more moral than just one man’s short love affair?!

I am placing this topic mostly for the sake of a linked poll, which I hope will show people’s attitude to such matters.
