The President’s ex-girlfriends are moving up in the world. It used to be they posed only for Penthouse.
We know what Monica Lewinsky was thinking when she posed for Vanity Fair as Marilyn Monroe, as a fan dancer, and as a cheesecake flag-bearer off the fuselage of a B-29: Carpe limelight. But what were her father and William Ginsburg, then her lawyer, who both approved the shoot, thinking? At 24, Miss Lewinsky is free to commit all manner of foolishness. But she is not some wild child going it alone. Mr. Lewinsky and Mr. Ginsburg have stood by her for months. If they could not steer her toward decorum, couldn’t they induce to think of self-protection? Or were they also oblivious to modesty and good sense? No wonder patriarchy has a bad name.
