Josh Duggar had paid Ashley Madison account(s) per Gawker

[SassyPants]

I am doing something bad and quoting and posting before I've read the three pages ahead, I'm trying to keep up but the thread's exploding faster than the internet over this.

In addition to Elin's number, give Anna the contact information for ELIN'S LAWYER!!!!!!

Yes- a good one could get money out of those folks-Yes, indeed.

[DuggarsTheEndIsNear]

I don't think there is any ATI approved divorce, wouldn't this mean she wasn't being available enough for him or submissive enough? (In their world view, not reality)

Not just their world view. I have some atheist friends who spout that same nonsense. "If someone cheats, it's the other person's fault for not realizing they were unhappy." Fuck that noise. No one forces you to cheat.

Anna may have been a little suspicious, but she also may have tried to excuse it as something else. I'm sure she is pretty shocked and humiliated. I really hope that she escapes from this twatwaffle with her children.

[twinmama]

I don't think there is a chance in hell Josh would have confessed to Anna about this unless he was sure the news was about to break.

I can't even imagine the conversations going on in their house now. "Did you at least use a condom???" Holy shit.

Ewww, oh god, with their beliefs is she hoping he did or did not use a condom during an affair if he had one!?!

[chaotic life]

Living in a state where adult toys are limited in access, I can tell you most things sex related don't show up with their known name on a credit card statement, if you want to have discretion.

[Growelly]

My opinion, she knew he molested his sisters and was ok with that. I'm sure since God will forgive him again she won't care. So no poor Anna from me.

That said, no one deserves to be cheated on. But I lost all pity for her when she basically said his past was ok with her.

But he PRAYED about it, and said sorry. So you know - it was all good.

Bet he had his fingers crossed behind his back when he did it.

[JenniferJuniper]

I suspect that if the Duggars comment at all, they will deny, deny, deny.

Oh, and weren't those records released ILLEGALLY? Could this be the work of SATAN? :P

LESBIANS! Sneaky, lurking, leaking, internets-savvy lesbians!

[twin2]

Not sure what Ma and Pa Dugger will do here. Go on TLC and try and pass it off as some "mild, inappropriate extra-marital activity"? I don't see how they can try and defend this, if its true. Josh might actually have to speak for himself...

I'm not sure why, but for some reason this come as more of a shock to me than Dougie.

[eye_browz]

How on earth did he carry affairs on without anyone finding out, esp Anna.....and from TWO accounts nonetheless. No one saw him with any women? Anna never saw bills coming in? I guess there is no denying it if it's not only his name and addresses but if the credit card bill is in his name, too. I am surprised at this, but if it turns out to be true, I'm ready to believe anything about him. :pink-shock:

She a mere woman, she doesn't look at financial statements and credit card balances. When they were looking for a home in DC, she proudly stated that she is glad she doesn't have to worry about the budget for the house; that's Josh's responsibility. So I doubt that she monitors his credit card. She certainly had access to debit cards for groceries, etc but I'm sure Josh would hide all evidence of that credit card that was used for the website.

This makes me think of all of those "business trips" and "traveling" that Josh did without an accountability partner, while Anna was home with the kiddos.

Josh needs to read the Bible more:

Luke 12:3 ESV

Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops.

Luke 8:17 ESV

For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.

I don't think there's a snowball's chance in hell Michelle and Jim-Bob will be going on TLC to address this -- you can bet those TLC folks are sighing in relief that they've already announced the cancellation of the show and wiped their hands of whatever misery is yet to follow. I do wonder how People is going to spin it, though...

I saw the news and immediately came to Free Jinger.

I so wish Anna would take the kids, get a TRO, and leave his smug butt right now.

What a philandering creep.

[DuggarsTheEndIsNear]

There is a world of difference between a child molester and an adult man who is cheating on his wife (presumably with a consenting fellow adult). I think he's a nasty piece of work, even if all he did was cheat on his wife, but cheating isn't illegal. If he isn't molesting children any more then whatever therapy he got did some good (yes, I know it was fake religious therapy or hard work :cry: )

Not necessarily. IF this is true (and I'm still not convinced), this would more or less confirm my suspicions that his actions were opportunistic, rather than anything else. It would suggest that his sisters were victims because they were available to him. Also, this could point to a sex addiction:

For some sex addicts, behavior does not progress beyond compulsive masturbation or the extensive use of pornography or phone or computer sex services. For others, addiction can involve illegal activities such as exhibitionism, voyeurism, obscene phone calls, child molestation or rape.

Sex addicts do not necessarily become sex offenders. Moreover, not all sex offenders are sex addicts. Roughly 55 percent of convicted sex offenders can be considered sex addicts.

About 71 percent of child molesters are sex addicts. For many, their problems are so severe that imprisonment is the only way to ensure society’s safety against them.

Society has accepted that sex offenders act not for sexual gratification, but rather out of a disturbed need for power, dominance, control or revenge, or a perverted expression of anger. More recently, however, an awareness of brain changes and brain reward associated with sexual behavior has led us to understand that there are also powerful sexual drives that motivate sex offenses.

The National Council on Sexual Addiction and Compulsivity has defined sexual addiction as “engaging in persistent and escalating patterns of sexual behavior acted out despite increasing negative consequences to self and others.†In other words, a sex addict will continue to engage in certain sexual behaviors despite facing potential health risks, financial problems, shattered relationships or even arrest.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Psychiatric Disorders, Volume Four describes sex addiction, under the category “Sexual Disorders Not Otherwise Specified,†as “distress about a pattern of repeated sexual relationships involving a succession of lovers who are experienced by the individual only as things to be used.†According to the manual, sex addiction also involves “compulsive searching for multiple partners, compulsive fixation on an unattainable partner, compulsive masturbation, compulsive love relationships and compulsive sexuality in a relationship.â€

JOSH, YOU'VE BEEN SUNDAY SCHOOLED. :auto-biker:

[NotALoserLikeYou]

OMG YES. lori or zsucifer!

Lori will say he is forgiven and we are all scummy sinners but Zsu will call for his execution!

[HarleyQuinn]

If it were identity theft, he would've released a statement by now. It's him, it has to be.

[sophrosyne]

The Ashley Madison data breach was announced July 20, I think. 19Kids was cancelled on July 16. I'm wondering about connection.

Has anyone seen a date for when the Ashley Madison data hit the ""Dark Web"? If it was before July 16, TLC's dark webbers might have discovered that Josh was part of the data breach, leading to the final nail in the 19Kids coffin.

[JenniferJuniper]

Lori will say he is forgiven and we are all scummy sinners but Zsu will call for his execution!

Along with the execution of any reprobates who don't believe in execution!

[DuggarsTheEndIsNear]

I doubt anyone ever gets prosecuted for adultery though. I'm not going to hold that against him as if it is illegal. I'll hold it against him because it's revolting. But to me, it's not a crime.

From the article:

I can't imagine how much it hurts to read that your husband and father of your young children advertised himself as wanting this with someone else. Part of me hopes Anna had her own account and they just have some kind of fundie open relationship. Though I know it isn't likely :)

Hahaha oh good, I'm not the only one that thought that. I also thought that maybe he had an account because the two of them wanted to try a three-some, but he was afraid of putting that on his profile cause it would be a lot better to be a "low life cheater who was hypocritical about modesty and purity" (since he was already that kind of hypocrite) than to be hypocritical about same sex sexual relations.

[hollywood]

I, personally, want to read a Seewald father original post response to this :lol:

[FlamingFundie]

I think the only thing worse than all of this is if an illegitimate child came of his shenanigans...

Or if we discover he had a homosexual encounter...

Sweet Jeebus. I honestly have no idea what to think at this point.

(Disclaimer: Im not anti-gay. Im anti-Duggar.)

[ILoveJellybeans]

Seriously Josh????? Ughhhhhh you just keep getting more of a scumbag. At least these ones are of age.

I feel for Anna though, cause it sucks to be cheated on.

[theinvisiblegirl]

I don't know if this has been like that for awhile (and I know I'm not blocked because I can still like and comment on photos), but the Duggars took down the ability to write on their page's wall. If this is recent, then they must have been alerted by Josh slightly beforehand or found out and immediately took action.

[DuggarsTheEndIsNear]

My facebook exploded on the way home... so first stop is here!

6 immediate thoughts

1 - Poor Anna

2 - I thought Oral was prohibited because no baybeez

3 - Does this mean joshie used BC with someone else (please say there arent other lil joshies out there)

4 - Credit card? What happened to cash only

5 - What a fucking piece of shit

6 - This gives a lot more credence to the "strip club" rumors in his younger days

To number 5: my debit card works as a credit card for machines and websites that use a credit option. It's only a credit card in the way it works on the business' end, not on my end.
