When LBJ heard people talking about JFK&#x27;s affairs, he &quot;would bang the table and declare that he had more women by accident than Kennedy ever had on purpose.&quot;[1] It got worse:<p><i>At his Senate office, his female workers were fondled, ogled and overworked. Though his own figure was flabby, he was quick to berate any of his &quot;girls&quot; who put on weight. He wanted to make sure the view was good when they walked away from his desk. &quot;I don&#x27;t want to look at an Aunt Minnie. I want to look at a good, trim back end.&quot; He boasted of his sexual prowess and had long affairs with at least two women, as well as casual flings with members of his staff. Robert Caro, who is a dogged researcher, has uncovered the story of LBJ&#x27;s previously secret relationship with Helen Gahagan Douglas, one of the few congresswomen in Washington during the 1940s. A former actress, she was an attractive blonde whose political career came to an abrupt halt after she failed to join her lover as a member of the Senate. In a dirty campaign for an open seat in California, she was defeated by a Republican newcomer who spread rumours that she was a Communist sympathiser. His name was Richard Nixon.</i>[2]<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theatlantic.com&#x2F;magazine&#x2F;archive&#x2F;1998&#x2F;04&#x2F;three-new-revelations-about-lbj&#x2F;377094&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theatlantic.com&#x2F;magazine&#x2F;archive&#x2F;1998&#x2F;04&#x2F;three-ne...</a><p>[2] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.telegraph.co.uk&#x2F;culture&#x2F;4728473&#x2F;A-lewd-crude-Master.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.telegraph.co.uk&#x2F;culture&#x2F;4728473&#x2F;A-lewd-crude-Mast...</a>
