A sex scandal is a scandal involving allegations or information about possibly-immoral sexual activities being made public. Sex scandals are often associated with sexual affairs of film stars, politicians, famous athletes or others in the public eye, and become scandals largely because of the prominence of the person involved, perceptions of hypocrisy on their part, or the non-normative or non-consensual nature of their sexuality.〔 A scandal may be based on reality, the product of false allegations, or a mixture of both. Sex scandals involving politicians often become political scandals, particularly when there is an attempt at a cover-up, or suspicions of illegality. While some commentators see sex scandals as irrelevant to politics, particularly where "professional performance () not seem to be impaired",〔 Gene Healy of the Cato Institute views them as not just "great fun", but a reminder "that we should think twice before we cede more power to these clowns."〔 ==See also== *Casting couch *Celebrity sex tape *Deviancy amplification spiral *Heidi Fleiss *List of federal political sex scandals in the United States 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「sex scandal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
