Since it hardly lives up to the high standards of General Trek, I put this here.
quote:Ryan file details sex allegations 06/21/2004
CHICAGO - U.S. Senate candidate Jack Ryan pressured and tricked his then-wife into going to sex clubs with "cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling" and tried to get her to have sex in front of others, she alleged in 4-year-old court records released Monday.
In the records from a June 2000 child-custody battle, Ryan's ex-wife - television actress Jeri Ryan of "Star Trek: Voyager" and "Boston Public" fame - alleged that the Republican millionaire's pressure tactics included suggesting once that she owed him a trip to a sex club because he had eaten dinner out with her.
In other instances, she alleged, he took her on what he said were going to be "romantic" trips that turned out instead to be journeys into places where "people were having sex everywhere."
----
In the documents, Jeri Ryan described a visit to a club in New York City: "It was a bizarre club with cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling."
She said Ryan asked her to perform a sexual act while others watched, and she refused. She said they departed and Ryan apologized to her and said it was out of his system.
But then, she said, he took her to Paris and again took her to a sex club without telling her where they were going. She said she cried and became physically ill at the club, and her husband got angry with her. She said she could never get over that incident. She also accuses him in the papers of being controlling and lying repeatedly throughout the divorce proceedings.
She did acknowledge infidelity on her part, which she said took place after their marriage was irretrievably broken.
Jack Ryan, in the documents, said: "I did arrange romantic getaways for us, but that did not include the type of activity she described. We did go to one avant-garde nightclub in Paris which was more than either one of us felt comfortable with. We left and vowed never to return."

Am I a bad person to have frequented such clubs on many occasions with my ex-girlfriend?
I think not.

There goes that idea. No, but I'm guessing that must have been more than the indeniably suave Denny's dinner out.

Jack Ryan. Just make sure he doesn't get sworn in as mid-term replacement VP. HAR!

I was actually dragged there on occasion: If she went, she must have either liked some aspect of it or was easily presssured.
Or (gasp!), she was in love.

The thought of Harrison Ford forcing Jeri Ryan into a sex club is amusing though...

Well this is lovely... I guess the rumours I heard in the Star Trek backlots were true.
