Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader posted a link yesterday directing minions to Sadie’s very well done post on Sex & Politics. Well, she is now giving us part two of the post.

According to Sadie your Maximum Leader’s type (the pseudo-benevolent autocrat goes like this:

A Pseudo-Benevolent Autocrat: You have two casual, non-exclusive dating relationships. As you are possessed with absolute power and flanked by a tightly knit group of despots, essentially you can do whatever the hell you want. Yet you linger, skillfully wielding this power with the intent of improving your subjects’ lives–whilst nourishing the ulterior, back-pocket motive of reinforcing your own authority in the process. Such a manner would be to provide generous gifts to both ladies, and having mindblowing sex with both of them shamelessly. Meanwhile, you assure them that even if their fellow serfs call them “sluts,” it matters not. Why? Reforming the entire social structure of the country allows you to recategorize the strata. “Slut” will then no longer be a derogatory term, instead it will enjoy a level of prestige rivaled only by trial lawyers. Eventually you persuade the ladies to bring you beer and nachos whilst lounging in a hammock, feeling enlightened and reading Voltaire.

Isn’t Sadie just brilliant? Oh yes. She is. Go and read the whole thing for yourself.

Carry on.
