Potiphar's wife?

Do you think that if potiphar's wife had known that her story would have been known throughout history, she would have acted differently; or would she have gotten a tattoo on the small of her back and owned up to it.

If you're completely confused see Genesis chapter 39.

Update:

To whom it may concern:

I never said that women who have tattoos throw themselves at men, I was merely alluding to my own observation that women who have that particular tattoo tend to be more promiscuous than those who do not have it. My intention was neither to offend nor to turn my question into a forum about this tattoo, but that particular passage was merely a joke, I appologize if anyone is offended by it.

    That woman sure had nerve, didn't she?

    It's easy to say what we might have done in hindsight. I don't think she would have acted any differently.

    Joseph was a handsome and virtuous man that was rapidly moving up in the world, so Potiphar's wife was very attracted to him. Too bad she messed with a man of God. She ended up making a fool of herself.

    First just because a woman has a tattoo does not mean that she will throw herself at men.

    Second one does not know what Potiphar's wife would have done differently if she would have known what history would remember her for. Would she have made sure her side of the story would also be told. Or maybe she would have shown what power she thought she had by seducing more men in hope that it too would be recorded.

    One should also remember we are not the ones to judge that is only for GOD.

    Hindsight, they say, is always 20-20....

    I think if she had known, she would have acted differently.

    Evidently she didn't think Potiphar was all that bright, did she? Sure had hubby fooled!!

    A bit of a horn-dogger, wasn't she?
