Sexuality doesn’t *scare* people, it makes them not trust things to be real. For example, are we voting for them because they are sexy, or because they are smart and capable? Morons (like John McCain) do not question their basest desires BUT they teach the rest of us a lesson on how lust can bring us down in the end, which is not a good thing when you’re working with a democracy. Raised on a diet from the Age of Reason seasoned with Protestant Revivalism, we know that sometimes what we desire most is bad for us. Sexy politicians simply do not exist. JFK Junior never would have made it, and neither would John Edwards. Bill Clinton may have been sexy in person but photos sure as hell didn’t show it. Strom Thurmond, Barney Frank, Diane Feinstein just prove my point…

Of course, then there are the French — Sarcozy and Bruni are the exception that prove the rule, and prove that the French must have wayyyyy better sex lives than the rest of us. Of course, they also have democracies that morph into dictatorships (e.g., Napoleon — case and point).

Anyway, the difference between “scare” and “trust” is simply one of emotion vs. reason. No biggy.

Looking forward to seeing more!
