Shut up and wear your horns!
A British judge has blocked a man from exposing the married public figure who cuckolded him:
In his ruling, the judge said: "There is a powerful argument that the conduct of an intimate or sexual relationship is a matter in respect of which there is 'a reasonable expectation of privacy'."He did not accept the submission that there was, or should be, a general legal principle that there was no legitimate expectation of privacy for a person who conducted a relationship with another person's wife.
A wise woman once said to me, "If you ain't proud, don't be it." Mr. CC obviously convinced himself that what he had done was right, or he would not have done it. So why is he afraid of exposure? There's a "powerful argument" that the public has a right to know who not to leave wives alone with. To legally block the forces of social opprobrium is social engineering of the most blatant sort.

Not particularly up on this point of British law. Anyone know if criminal conversation is still a viable tort?
