In a new twist to the Anthony Weiner sexting story, The NY Post reports today that Weiner was ‘catfished’ by a man who posed as a woman and had a sexual exchange with the former congressman over twitter.

The conversation turned sexual and  Weiner told the ‘woman’ that he was deceptively strong ‘like a mongoose’ before giving out his phone number to the person.

Weiner denies being catfished, saying that he knew that the person was a woman and that he was just playing along.

Why you would give your phone number to someone if you were ‘just playing along’ is beyond any reasonable explanation. Weiner was caught in the flirty conversation while in Los Angeles to appear on Bill Maher’s talk show.

For all of the good it will do, I have this to say to Anthony Weiner; Anthony, please stop sexting people on social media and then trying to deny it. At least make yourself into the first former politician turned porn actor and get paid for what you obviously love to do.
