Re: Divorce - Adultery Thread

the world is different than even 10 years ago, when i was divorced 2 years ago, my pastor told me be careful women arent what they used to be, very true, even in the church, as far as fairness, where i live the courts are slanted toward the woman, i can not address the whole country but here for sure, dt

Women need emotional attachment and if the emotional attachment is denied them by the spouse they turn to another for affirmation. Men are totally clueless until the woman gives up and says...you know what - it is over and then does something to signify the end. Men were more prone to being impluse driven and reacting to physical attraction and a woman who flatters them. They still love their wives but think one has nothing to do with the other...until the shoe is on the other foot.

just to be clear, you are saying that in the mid 1990's 92% of married men cheated and 8% of married women cheated?

is that what you are saying?

that is funny baron, hopefully not true, i beleive the statistics had to do with the number of cheaters, being maybe 92 percent men, and 8 percent women, that is not true now in 2008 for sure, but a blanket statement that most men cheat like 92 percent, no not even now, dt

I believe she was trying to say of the cheaters 92% were men. I doubt those statistics were totally accurate and she was probably pulling from memory.

However most men, unfortunately, would not consider an anonymous visit with a prostitute an "affair". Most women (and pollsters, no doubt, would disagree).

And when you figure in prostitutes and number of clientèle for each, a 10 to 1 ratio is not unreasonable. Just a thought.

Fair enough. I was being silly more than anything. Usually those numbers include large number of men cheating with single women rather than married women, which also skews the numbers.
