The photos and invasion of privacy make this different, but how is it "slut


shaming?" Maybe I don't even know what slut shaming is (I mean, I gather it's trying to make someone feel shame over sexual activity), but when men resign over consensual encounters, nobody calls that slut shaming... it's just resigning because you got caught doing something that's taboo. Whether the taboo is stepping out on the wife, or sleeping with a subordinate, I don't see how one is "slut shaming" and the other isn't...

Again, I do think the photos make this different than the men ... probably won't be the last millennial Congressperson to have nude pics come out ... but I've seen that term - "slut shaming" - thrown around a good bit today by the usual suspects on social media, and honestly other than the pictures, I don't see how this is any different. She got caught doing something/someone she shouldn't have, and was forced to resign. Tale as old as time.
