      what is an ideal choice depends on context etc etc but one thing I am fairly confident in is that relatively powerful people ought to be held to a higher standard on the latter. for example "if you are the president and you fuck around with your intern you just are Toast"

      if you are powerful and you are not hewing to Wife of Caesar standards in your personal conduct i have to assume you are either a predator or a goddamn fool

      anyway I don't think this reasoning is tight and this is just a hunch but to the extent sexual liberation makes the strictest behavior standards more difficult to enforce, and reduces the extent to which a third party can verify whether any situation is Bad Actually,

      i'm kinda torn on the billy graham rule tbh. on the one hand, i think *if* following it "threatens women's careers" as is claimed by some, then your industry is FAKE AND GAY because people are clearly promoted based on schmoozing rather than actual merit...

      ...on the other hand, i don't actually believe in following it because sex segregation (e.g. "you can't have close friends of the opposite sex aside from your spouse") is socially toxic and doesn't actually serve your purpose very well anymore post-LGBT rights revolution

      ...which one of my assertions are you critiquing? the idea that there's such a thing as "actual merit" separate from schmoozing, or that sex segregation is bad, or that segregating the sexes doesn't provide such a good clear line anymore now that gay sex is normalized?

      to be clear i don't have a 1000 IQ argument for sex segregation being bad, it is purely based on personal experience and Vibes

      the last one mostly I think there are marginal cases where it matters but the bulk of all of this is just gonna be hetero oriented

          to be clear i'm willing to endorse the billy graham rule in professional/political contexts, and even willing to endorse the literal text of it in informal social contexts, but not willing to endorse the *spirit* of it in informal social contexts

          *even if* this massively diminishes the social utility, for the same reason that i would not endorse a "we should all self-flagellate and wear hair shirts" rule no matter how well someone argued for their social utility
