Does infidelity among politicians, bosses, teachers make a difference in job performance? Does it display moral turpitude that is a proxy for work?

Would you:

Vote for a cheating politician?

Allow your kids teacher to be a cheater?

Judge your boss if they are unfaithful?

Yes. Cheating in personal life reveals character flaws

No. Infidelity and work are 2 separate spheres of identity/character

[MisterWack]

It depends honestly.

If the person is shady, hides the infidelity, attacks the victim, defames/gaslights to cover it up or acts irrationally as a leader to divert attention then all this is identity/character.

Now, if the person is transparent, admits past mistakes, owns up to it, and willing to write the wrongs into rights then absolutely is a great leader.

That makes character contingent on getting caught.

Sexual scandals can end politician’s careers but sometimes boost them. Depends on how the media spins the narrative.

Funny how the name Willie Brown had been conspicuously absent in all the mass media coverage lately. Hmmm I wonder why 🤔🤔🤔🤔

It would have no impact on my vote. I don't care about their personal life

[DrPepper12]

Couldn't agree more! IDGAF where they wet their Willie. Just do your job!

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

No way, it's totally wrong.

[DrPepper12]

Why? people wear different hats for different situations? It's dishonest sure but doesn't effect job performance

[NathanDavis]

I once had a (sort of a) boss... who was also a cheater

work wise, he was one of the best bosses I had and great at bossing too... but, on the faithful thing... dude even tried to get my girlfriend to cheat, lmao...

we're no longer friends... or coworkers

One is not renewed incompetent from such things but, that's a display the lack of character, living in a double standard or a level of hypocrisy without a doubt.

For someone like Gavin Newsom and Bill Clinton it's all of the above.

Said A, because it certainly implies more than the act itself. That said pretty much all powerful men for all of time have been sexual deviants. My presumption is just an extension of "absolute power corrupts absolutely."

[RedInnocent69]

It’s complicated. Powerful people will often seduce themselves into doing powerful things.

[DrPepper12]

Good answer

[Dargil]

Is this about Trump or Kami, perhaps?

[DrPepper12]

I don't know any authority figure?
