Lots of sexual blackmail is nullified if you aren’t ashamed of who you are. It’s why religión and government try to keep people ashamed of their bodies. Ashamed people are easy to control when you have kompromat on them.

French are wives are just as promiscuous. I know from experience.

I was going to mention the Indonesian president allegedly asking for copies of blackmail tapes when the KGB tried to blackmail him for sexual impropriety.

But then I read this, and the truth is at least as entertaining as fiction.
