Also, while I understand that these sorts of actions aren't undertaken because of lack of attention at home, Weiner's wife if one of the most incredibly attractive women I have ever met. Beyond stunning. Far more attractive than her pictures, if you can believe it. And one of the smartest and nicest people you will ever meet. Why she's with this guy, I have no idea.

In addition, I think that there is some excitement that comes with sexting to women a man hasn't met or doesn't know, and men in positions of power typically have a bit of a narcissistic personality (in some cases) where "sexting" feeds into that. The whole "look at me, do you think I am sexy"?
We are all guilty of this type of behavior at some point in our lives, and we are making such a big deal out of what he did. It is not surprising that he lied, not surprising at all.
America is so hell bent on their puritanical/hypocritical ways concerning sex, sexual relations outside the marriage that it sets the stage for these people to feel embarrassed, and feel that what they are doing is wrong, then when caught lie about it. What do we expect?
"Basically, people are engaging in the same fantasies and behaviors that they always have," Marshall said. "But now they have the technology to back it up."
