Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI see some DUers are still in the denial stage about Ted Cruz's sexiness
I personally have moved on to the bargaining stage -- "maybe all those ladies were sleeping with him because he's powerful and power is a strong aphrodisiac."
Later on we'll get to the depression stage -- "Oh God, there are actual human beings who find him attractive... Maybe Darwin was wrong and Devo was right"
Eventually we'll all get to acceptance and realize it's human nature to mix, mingle, and get it on with a variety of people; we'll see that part of the genius of biological diversity requires the mating of people whom we ourselves do not run in circles with.
But one thing I think we can all agree on: there is something traumatic to the idea of Ted Cruz being a mack-happy lothario.

(2,978 posts)The evangelical types don't want to admit that they secretly admire him more, but they value male power and objectification of females more than their phony faith and so this improves his standing in their eyes, especially if it sets up the "I'm a sinner who can only be redeemed by God" dynamic so beloved of evangelical America.
They do this shit all the time. The point is to keep turning (publicly) to Jesus for next week's need for redemption while demonstrating one's authority, power and privilege over women on a regular basis.
Heidi Cruz is kinda uppity with her Goldman career, and with depression--how is she supposed to be an obedient Christian wife like that? Of course she unmanned him. She has to ask God's forgiveness to for _causing_ him (they REALLY think like this) to stray.
Trust me--they'll respect him MORE.

(51,129 posts)Im sorry, Im sorry, I cannot drop this. I just cant. The very idea of five women having sex with Ted Cruz is just too goddamned funny.
Because I apparently hate myself, I have spent a good deal of today wondering about just what that would entail. I did not picture him naked, because I firmly believe that Ted Cruz is a person that no one should ever see naked for any reason. I am very happy to go on believing that he is a never-nude. ............

(2,916 posts)Actually, pretty sure it wasn't a booger. It came flying out of his mouth. Look up tonsil stones. It's even more horrifying than eating a booger, IMO. They apparently reek like death. No wonder his daughter was pulling away. He totally has yuckmouth.

(2,382 posts)... the ladies' wing of his Princeton dorm dressed only in a kimono and a smarmy smile. By all accounts, he creeped out everyone who knew him back in the day, as much as he does now. Outtakes from his oily commercials show that even his children treat him as an icky reptile, and his mother rolls her eyes at his fervent religious hyperbole.
If that snake were to be elected, I predict that both Mexico and Canada would build YUUUGE fences to keep out the millions of Americans trying to flee a ruthless totalitarian theocracy.

(9,090 posts)in their face- even though they don't know it
dems never factor that 5BIL$/year, or 90MIL$/week, infomercial power (1200 stations x 15 hrs/day x $1000/hr)
so cruz and drumpf have the talk radio gods making excuses for them, or even just ignoring them or distracting from those stories, and guys like edwards and hart and clinton are the devil
that PAC money is minor when it's up against the talk radio gods dissing their establishment masters now

(17,194 posts)I'm sorry, but it had to be done to cure people of their unhealthy fixation on Ted's lucious bod. In my ministry, I've found that showing this picture to those who have strayed works as well as four cups of espresso or a double-dose of Ipecac (responses vary). Now go and sin no more.
And don't remember this picture when you're trying to go to sleep tonight.

hfojvt
(37,573 posts)is that there are a lot of women willing to get it on with him
and apparently not even ONE woman willing to do so with me.
Then again, another possible explanation exists - Cruz has very, very low standards.
Myself, I am probably too much like Marian. As her mother said
"If you don't mind my saying so. There's not a man alive who can hope to measure up to that blend of Paul Bunyan, St. Pat and Noah Webster you've concocted for yourself out of your Irish imagination, and Iowa stubbornness and your library full of books."
or, in my case
"If you don't mind my saying so. There's not a girl alive who can hope to measure up to that blend of Cheryl Tiegs, Dorothy Day and Marie Curie you've concocted for yourself out of your Irish imagination, and Dakota stubbornness and your library full of books."
