Tomayto, Tomahto, And Promiscuity

Chris Rock used to say in his act that, in relationships, people are “as loyal as their options”. And even though 21-year-old Scarlett Johansson is currently dating former Black Dahlia co-star Josh Hartnett, the recently crowned “Sexiest Woman Alive” is nothing if not a girl with a lot of options.

Of course, one of the bylaws of monogamous relationships is that you have to at least say you’re not promiscuous, and Scarlett so assured Allure (and probably Josh). But then she’s also said that monogamy is unnatural, that she’s not monogamous or even a “serial monogamist”, and that she gets HIV tests twice a year. But she’s not promiscuous.

Whatever. Given that every post-pubescent male around the globe wants to bang her, was anyone — with the possible exception of Josh — really complaining?
