PRIVATE LIVES, PUBLIC LIES
2015 has been a banner year for sex scandals. From the self-righteous
and hypocritical to the truly horrific, let’s take a look at what some
people really have going on inside their pants.
Fallen ‘Heroes’
Though it’s easy to lay on the sarcasm now, Bill Cosby, Jared Fogle
and even Josh Duggar were once considered inspirational leaders by
legions of people. In 2015, however, we finally began to pay attention
to allegations that TV dream dad and cultural critic Bill Cosby was a
serial rapist. Jared Fogle, former Subway spokesperson and the face
of “real life” weight loss, pled guilty to charges related to having sex
with underage girls and exchanging graphic depictions of minors
engaged in sex acts. And it was revealed that Josh Duggar, one of 19
poster children for extremely conservative Christian proselytizing, had
molested five underage girls. Oh, and his digits were also part of the
AshleyMadison data leak.
Do as I Say, Not As I Do (Part 1)
Republican Dennis Hastert was the 51st Speaker of the U.S. House
of Representatives. In 2015, Hastert was indicted on federal charges
of structuring bank withdrawals amounting to $952,000 in order
to evade bank-reporting requirements, among other charges. (Law
requires reporting withdrawals over $10,000) Federal prosecutors said
that the money was to conceal misconduct that happened decades
prior—sexual misconduct with young men students when Hastert was
a high school teacher over 30 years ago.

Do as I Say, Not As I Do (Part 2)
In a fine example of hypocritical fools with technology, Indiana House Majority Leader Jud
McMillin resigned from in September after sending a video of himself fraternizing with a
woman who wasn’t his wife to his entire contacts list. Ironically, during his five years in the
legislature, McMillin crusaded heavily to “protect the integrity of the institution of marriage”
and cosponsored the state’s anti-gay “religious freedom” bill. Karma, baby—it’s a bitch.
Marc Jacobs, Scandalous Hero!
On the other end of the hypocrisy scale, fashion designer Marc Jacobs made headlines in
October when the New York Post reported Jacobs hosted a 10-person orgy. And where did he
find 10 guys to fill out his living room? Grindr. Never the shrinking violet, Jacobs responded to
accusations of sexual debauchery with a resounding yes!—he’s gay, had an orgy, and has every
right to enjoy sex. He is taking a break from Grindr, though.
