Olympic Village Brothel

London Calling. (HT ESPN)



The 2012 Olympic games start this week and the sex stories are already out on the Olympic Village. Let's dig in:

"Even Hope Solo, a soccer star and Olympic gold-medalist, copped to the raucous nights, when sex comes as either a celebratory act or a "consolation prize."

"I've seen people having sex right out in the open. On the grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty," Solo told ESPN The Magazine."

Sounds no different than what goes on at a nude beach.

"On the way to practice fields, "the girls are in skimpy panties and bras, the dudes in underwear, so you see what everybody is working with from the jump," says Breaux Greer, an American javelin thrower. "Even if their face is a 7, their body is a 20." In Beijing, even the adolescent female gymnasts got sassy with the water polo and judo boys who shared their training room. "That's where most of my socialization took place -- in a tub, up to my chest in ice water," says silver medalist Alicia Sacramone, then 20, who served as den mother to her teammates. "The younger girls would try to flirt with stuff like, 'Look at that butt on him!' I'm like, 'Excuse me, did that just come out of your mouth? Don't pay attention to his butt!'"

So adolescent female gymnasts are getting in the act? Regardless of age, the gatekeepers of sex (females) seem willing to grant passes. Since we're talking about Olympic athletes, you know everyone is in shape.

"Many liken it to a high school cafeteria, "except everyone's beautiful," says Julie Foudy, who has two golds and one silver from playing soccer in three Olympics and is now an analyst for ESPN. "We'd graze over our food for hours watching all the eye candy, wondering why I got married."

Even married women are not immune to the sex culture of the Olympic village. I wonder what her husband thinks of that?

Here's my take from the Male perspective: If you're an Olympic Athlete arriving in London this week, you're entering a place that for the next three weeks you will have access to some of the best food, drink, and women the world has to offer. You had better believe that many guys will partake in that.

The Latest Doug Hutchinson

The Happy Couple. (HT WBIR.com)

Move over Doug Hutchinson, you've got company. From Yahoo News:

"Last year, Jordan Powers was just another student from Mr. Hooker's class. Now she's his live-in girlfriend.

James Hooker -- the 41-year-old married father who left his wife and kids for his 18-year-old-student -- might be the worst teacher ever. Last week, he resigned from his job at Enochs High School in Modesto, California over the scandal that's shaken up a community and pit one mom on a crusade to save her daughter from a man she calls a "master manipulator."

Worse teacher ever? I think Mary Kay Latourneau, Debra LaFave, and Mark Berndt have James Hooker beat.

Manipulator? Not completely sold on that. Jordan is a legal adult who chose to move in with him. In addition, this is consistent behavior with daughters from single mother households from a sexually active standpoint. Early bloomer.

As far as James Hooker goes, he's breaking a covenant with his wife and family. That has consequences, like a potentially bitter divorce. This gets better:

"Jordan met her teacher as a freshman, but both maintain nothing physical happened until she turned 18 this past September. Hooker claims he saw Powers as "just a student" and had no romantic feelings toward her at first, but when her most recent birthday came around, things changed.

They changed so much, in fact, that Hooker, left his wife and three kids (one of them a 17-year-old Enochs high school student as well) so that he could move in with Jordan.

If this all sounds suspicious to you, imagine how Tammie Powers, Jordan's mom, feels. She's launched an official police investigation to find out if Hooker's relationship with her daughter began before Jordan was of legal age. Tammie is convinced it did, citing a photo of her daughter on Hooker's lap and text messages, emails and phone records exchanged between the couple that predate her daughter's 18th birthday.

"That's pursuit, in my opinion, with some type of intent," she told ABC News 10 in California."

Haven't seen the content of the texts and emails, but the phone records and photo are circumstantial.

"Hooker denies Tammie's claims and is confident the investigation will turn up nothing. He blames the "stigma of the teacher-student relationship" for the public backlash. But Hooker's former boss, Modesto City Schools Supt. Pam Able, doesn't agree.

Even if their relationship doesn't break any laws, Able says she "considers student-teacher dating relationships to be not only unprofessional, but immoral." She also added in an email to the Modesto Bee, that Hooker's relationship has become a "source of great concern for staff, students and parents."

Ms. Able, since you believe student-teacher dating relationships are unprofessional and immoral, can you tell that to all the college profs and TA's (not to mention other teachers at the HS level as regular readers of this blog know)? This is a pretty common occurrence.

Still, Hooker claims he has no regrets. In an interview with Good Morning America, he shut down Tammie's accusations as a "pack of lies" and said of his new love, "we really do want to have a future together."

So we can pretty safely say that James Hooker won't be on Tammie Powers' Christmas card list any year soon. Meanwhile, Tammie Powers has gone to great lengths in her "crusade" against James Hooker:

"Desperate for her child, Tammie has turned her own Facebook page into a "most wanted" profile for Hooker. She's plastered his photo all over her wall warning neighbors about the man she calls an "arrogant pig". She's also made her wallpaper a photo of a prison cell, sending a message to Hooker should he dare visit her site.

Since the story has been picked up by national press, she's been flooded with messages of support from strangers. Tonight, she'll be taking her crusade against Hooker to Nancy Grace. "Nancy's always been a victims advocate and fights for justice," Tammie wrote on Facebook. "That's the goal here, justice."

Justice for whom exactly?? Certainly not Jordan Powers.

An Icelandic Woman's Critique Of American Women

The Average American woman?? (HT visualphotos.com)

About a year ago an Icelandic woman living in America gave a stinging critique of American women that still holds true today. From reddit.com:

"Since moving here I have met too many women that are under the impression that they are pretty pretty princesses and as such should not have to do anything but get everything they want. It is their way or no way. They are rude, self righteous and believe they are entitled to everything.

They treat their men badly and barely care about their children. They grew up believing that their wedding day is the most important day in their lives and that their main focus throughout their life should be to find some guy that is supposed to grovel before them to marry.

Not all women are that way but a a great majority as I have seen. Many of my girl friends have infuriated me with their behavior and attitude towards their boyfriends/husbands, treating them like they were stupid and just plain being unreasonable cause they think that is ok and that is the way they should be. Why do you raise your children like that? Why do you continue to behave like that? Some women even acknowledge that how they are behaving is childish and rude but still do it because that "is just the way it is".

Obviously, I know all American women aren't like that, but based on observation and experience, the majority of them are. How many women do you know gave a marriage or nothing ultimatum to a man? How many articles have you come across that feature children dying while in the custody of a single mother? I've seen too many women, driven by their biological clocks, with only weddings and babies on their minds. Lastly, I see too many women with an attitude of entitlement.

Naturally some American girls cried foul, trying to reframe the post to say European or Icelandic women are superior, but the author responds to this too:

"Thank you all for the interesting and insightful comments. It seems people either give a resounding "yes" or a "up yours" :D Some people seem to have misunderstood my statement to mean that Icelandic women are perfect or European women are awesome, this is not so. We all have our faults. This post is about the attitude I continually seem to run into here in the US."

From my experience, many foreign women have said similar things about American women. This is why in most cases, foreign women are a better match for me and my crew.
