There was an elder in a congregation I used to go to that would openly flirt with younger, attractive sisters. He was in his 50s, so the sisters would be in the late 20s, early 30s range. Sometimes they would even be married. He wouldn't do it during or immediately after a meeting but if the congregation was working on the exterior of the hall or doing some form of construction where the atmosphere wasn't as dead, he would say things.
He had alot of money, mostly due to the fact that his father had lots of money. And by lots, I mean in the millions range. He inherited his father's construction company and he was as arrogant as they came. There was another elder, too, that had that kind of money. They all bonded together to form some kind of elder mafia. They cursed in public, didn't care who heard them. This elder's son, a ministerial servant, even cursed out his own mother. For elders that didn't have that kind of cash (who does?) they would do favors for them like loan them money or do private home building for them cheaper than average.
You didn't ask for all that but I wanted you to get a picture of the sort of people we are talking about.
The congregation had a sort of don't ask, don't tell policy. Everybody knew that the elders were up to no good so the congregation members never really got into trouble. Usually sisters were offended but otherwise too afraid to say anything. All of the elders except one were part of the "elder mafia" and the one that wasn't usually had the expression that he didn't want to be bothered.
