We are rapidly becoming a peeping tom society. There is nothing private that cannot be revealed to others, no promises that cannot be broken, no secrets that cannot be betrayed, nothing intimate that cannot be displayed to the full view of voyeurs. One would have thought that sex is the ultimate private act between two individuals, an act of total trust and an act that must have dignity or else it is reduced to pornography. However, we are assaulted by a variety of revelations involving famous people, usually sports stars, everyday. There are the usual cheap tarts who lure famous men and presumably enjoy the experience. They accept valuable presents and even money to keep quiet but then run to tabloids to disclose every sick detail for money. This is what happened to David Beckham and probably to Tiger Woods. Now even whores are beginning to betray their johns. First Peter Crouch and now Wayne Rooney, both betrayed by professional whores who charged for their services. Rooney apparently paid 1200 pounds for a night. At that price he had every right to expect total discretion but he has been stabbed right in the soft parts. Whoring is the oldest profession and surely by this time there ought to be ethical guidelines on how to behave. Just as doctors have to guard patient confidentiality whores are expected to protect the identity and pillow talk of their johns. But no longer. By breaking their ancient code these two whores have struck at the very heart of society. We do not trust politicians or civil servants or lawyers or priests even our teachers. Now we cannot trust whores. Will society survive this trauma?
