The way I read his response is: ”I can’t control my own penis when women are in the vicinity, and I don’t want them to force me to violate my marriage vows due to my inability to control my penis.” Ya. This is the type of guy who should be a governor. 1 1 Link to comment

No. It was to avoid any opportunity of false accusation - which can occur with any public figure (male or female). Secondarily it is to keep 'honest people honest'. Or to put it in this context "Keep pure people pure". Temptation comes for many reasons - not just an inability to 'control ones' penis'. To create an environment where temptation cannot occur helps in the battle - as well as being self controlled and inwardly strong oneself. Link to comment

It’s not okay and it’s downright sexist and disgusting for him to require a female reporter to be accompanied by a male in order for her to be allowed. If you disagree with that there’s nothing for us to discuss. False accusations are so rare it’s f#&%ing stupid to do it for that purpose and it’s not a good enough reason to be a sexist asshat. The keeping honest people honest argument is bulls#!t. You do that by not being alone with someone you’re attracted to. What this a$$h@!e is doing is far different from that. 3 Link to comment

I understand Graham's motivation. He went about handling the situation in a very bad way. 3 Link to comment

If I’m a super famous man like Graham, I wouldn’t go hang out with a girl just the 2 of us by ourselves but that’s the extent to which I’d take it. False accusations are incredibly rare. I’d just make sure all other interactions are in public settings. What this a$$h@!e is doing is being an a$$h@!e. 1 Link to comment

By that logic shouldn't the male reporters also require a female escort so that there's no opportunity of false accusations of having a homosexual affair? 4 1 Link to comment
Moiraine Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Also, this isn’t really about the Graham rule.
