Generally repugnant

The big story now is General Petraeus banging his biographer. I almost can't fault him for that because how else can you ensure a fawning biography?  Of course, I guess now he's rethinking that "logic". Rather than get into the usual topics surrounding this kind of thing, I'd like to look at a part of this story that will probably go unexamined. Why in the hell do men send naked or semi-naked pics to women?!  Granted, Neither Petraeus nor General Allen did this (that we know of). Apparently, one of the original FBI investigators in Tampa sent shirtless pics of himself to the lady who contacted him regarding strange emails she received that she found vaguely threatening.

 Let me reiterate, a lady went to a friend who worked for the FBI because she was worried about her safety and what did he do?  He implemented an investigation which has already led to the downfall of the CIA director and, oh yes, SENT HER DOZENS OF PICTURES OF HIMSELF WITHOUT A SHIRT ON!  Who does this?

It's never the hot guy sending out pics. It's always the fat hairy one!

 More to the point, why do men think this is attractive to women?  First of all, once these pics leave your possession, they are out there for all to see. Just ask Anthony Wiener.  They will get passed around. If you are too old or stupid to figure out twitter, don't post pictures of your junk on your twitter account. Guess what?  That chick you know only from her profile pic?  Maybe not really someone you want to hold your political future in her hands.

Back to pictures of chests or junk not attractive to women. Chances are, if you feel the need to send inappropriate pictures of yourself to women, you are neither hung like John Holmes nor do you have the chest of Vin Diesel.  If that is the case (and it always is), STOP BEFORE YOU HIT SEND!  It will save you future heartache and possible dismissal from your job.
