While most would consider it a rather unimportant fact, Beckel piped up, decrying it an example of the downward spiral of American values.
'She's a slut!' he bellowed. 'I'm not kidding you!'
'When she sleeps with somebody else and doesn't tell the guy about it. This is what America has gone to.'


His sexist comment prompted laughter from the other men on the panel but one of his co-hosts thankfully hit back.
'Are you kidding me?' Andrea Tantaros snapped.
'Excuse me Bob. You probably sleep with a different woman every night.'
Viall told reporters he and Dorfman 'made love' after the show's finale on Monday night.

Did he call the male anything? Probably not... which is indicative of a wider problem far too many idiots close their eyes to whilst instead, complaining about imaginary "frigid" women, or martyr themselves because they're "not allowed" to flirt with every woman that looks attractive to them. Idiots, the lot of 'em.
