Such is human nature...

I am constantly surprised that other people are surprised by the obvious.  If you have a situation where men are put in control of a commodity which poor women desperately want, it really should come as no surprise if some of those men demand sexual favours in return for supplying said commodity, and equally if some women offer sexual favours  in the hope of obtaining it.  This is the Oxfam scandal of course, which has now spread to other aid agencies.  It's not nice, and reflects badly on all those involved, but surprising?  Perhaps the most surprising thing is that it has taken so long to surface.
