Shame on Senator DeMint: Single Women Should Be Able to Teach AND Have a Boyfriend, says the Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals

SAN RAFAEL, CA, October 08, 2010

"Shame on Senator Jim DeMint," says Rich Gosse, Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, "for declaring that an unmarried woman who's sleeping with her boyfriend—she shouldn't be in the classroom." (Spartanburg Herald-Journal, October 2, 2010). "Singles are the Rodney Dangerfields of our society," says Mr. Gosse, "They can't get no respect. Singles are the victims of systematic discrimination, particularly in the areas of Taxes, Insurance, Retirement Benefits, Employee Benefits, Housing, and Unemployment Benefits. Now Senator DeMint wants to deny them the right to teach.

Rich Gosse is the Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, the world's largest non-profit singles organization, which is the official sponsor of National Singles Week, which has been observed since 1982 and has been declared by many of America's governors. He is the author of eight books, including Singles Guide to America, You CAN Hurry Love, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" - Oprah Winfrey). His most recent book is The Cougar Imperative: Why MidLife Women MUST Choose Younger Men." His expert advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNBC, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Cosmopolitan, Playboy, Playgirl, Business Week, The London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, and hundreds of other media outlets worldwide.

Rich Gosse is the first candidate in history to campaign on a "Fairness for Singles Platform," when he ran for Governor in California's historic Recall Election in 2003.
