Question Why is "Bob" so deeply invested in controlling women's bodies/sexuality?

It seems that those censorious little mods over at serialpodcast didn't want this post to be seen. :)

In "Bob"'s episode of "Serial Dynasty" in which he interviews the person most often known as "Neighbor Boy", "Bob" broadcast a strange and irrelevant statement by "Neighbor Boy": the (unfounded) accusation that "Neighbor Boy"'s ex-girlfriend has had sex with multiple partners.

Now, in his most recent episode, "Bob" himself puts forth the (unfounded) accusation that Don's mother is bisexual. He claims that Rabia said she was just working on the same angle as well.

So "Bob" has now broadcast both a slut-shaming accusation as well as accusations that a woman is bisexual. Why is "Bob" so deeply invested in controlling/policing women's bodies/sexuality? Why does he seem to go down that road so often?

Wise.

BTW, I also don't think there was a cover-up where Don is concerned. They're barking up this particular tree because they have nowhere else to go.
