Recently a political candidate had some photos leaked/published with a dominatrix. Putting aside that it was quite possibly an intentional publicity stunt, the reaction on Twitter has been interesting. Many seem to feel this is a reprehensible form of journalism. I disagree.
It's a testament to the prevailing notions of sexual liberation that whatever depraved and debased activities that a "consenting adult" enjoys says so little about their character that it can't be in the public interest, even in the case of political candidates.
I've seen some say that if the candidate was female, there would be criminal charges. How quickly we forget about Katie Hill.
