Most people don’t know that Frank Sinatra has an arrest record and a mugshot to match. The reason for his arrest may be even more surprising. The official charge? Seduction. This seemingly archaic charge was generally applied when a man convinced an unmarried woman of good repute to engage in an inappropriate encounter with him. There was generally a promise of marriage that was never actually forthcoming, thereby ruining her reputation. In 1938, a 23-year-old Sinatra found himself in just such a situation, and he was officially arrested and booked for Seduction. The charge was eventually dropped when it was discovered that the supposedly single woman was in fact married. Later that year, armed with this new information, the original charge was revised slightly, and Sinatra was again arrested, this time for Adultery. https://www.crimemuseum.org/crime-library/celebrity-mugshots/frank-sinatra/ It's interesting that at a time when the patriarchy that feminists decry ruled America, a man could be arrested for "Seduction" or Adultery. Now, in the ashes of the patriarchy and in the full flower of the gynarchy with its contraception and abortion handmaidens, a man can pump and dump his way through a small army of feminists with nary a disruption to his hedonistic lifestyle.
