Oh my.
Oscar Wilde gets derailed off-topic with the very first primitive comment, and it goes downhill from there.

OSCAR WILDE, THE LARGE-PROBOSCISED PRIMITIVE
Original message
The country's been screwed and Tiger Woods didn't do it.
You might not agree with me, but over 90% of the men in the world, given Tiger's sexual opportunities, would take them. (Psst, your hubby's no different.)
Most professional athletes are hit on every night of their lives in their hotel lobbies or bars. And how many of them do you think say "No?"
Yet, Tiger is getting media coverage while the majority of us, who are ****ed every single day, hour, and minute of our lives by our government representatives, and those who own them, get scant coverage.
I really don't care who Tiger is screwing. I'm more concerned with going after those who are screwing us. But here's the problem. There are too many of them, and they have unlimited dollars behind them.
They control any and all medical care we get or don't get, the job market, the ongoing health of Social Security, the minimum wage, the interest you pay on your credit cards, your house and everything else you pay for over time. You are nothing to them but an oasis of cash. They don't care whether you live or die, as long as they get your last buck before you're buried.
So when you look at it in that light, do you really care who Tiger is screwing. Or are you more interested in who's screwing you and how little power you have to make it stop. Hmmm, "make it stop." I guess that could be called rape.
So what are we going to do about it? Or, more to the point, what can we do about it?

1. Speak for yourself only, Cyrano.
Your 90% number does not reflect real life. Not at all. Most men have had the opportunity to cheat. Most men do not cheat.
Since your first point isn't true, where does that leave the rest of your argument?

2. I have no idea what planet you live on
"Cheating" as it's called is nothing more than a matter of opportunity.
Most men, given the opportunity, will "cheat."
There's an old saying: "A hard on has no conscience."
Most men, if doped up with sodium pentathal, will admit to the truth of this. And will also admit to how many times they have "cheated."
As for you ladies reading this thread, I have no idea how many women will "cheat" if given the opportunity. But trust me on this. Not many men will walk away from the opportunity to get laid whenever possible. And any man who disagrees about this is either lying, or is one of a very, very rare breed.

3. You're making a common logical error. You're judging the whole by a small part. Now, what you say may apply to you, but it doesn't to me. Most men, actually, will decline such an opportunity. That's why they can call themselves men, instead of boys.
Your basic premise is incorrect, so your reasoning is flawed.

5. So you wish. It is not true. Most men will not do as you say.
Most men take their permanent relationships seriously and do not violate that trust.
You can say I'm wrong as often as you wish, but it is not true.
I've walked away from the opportunity many times in my life. At my advanced age, I doubt there will be a lot more such opportunities, but I can absolutely guarantee that I would do the same again.
I'm far from alone in this.

11. What fantasy? For most people, trust and honor are important. For those who don't consider those important, I feel nothing but pity.
A man who will cheat on his wife will cheat on anyone. Such a man is not to be trusted with anything important. That's what my father taught me, and he was right. I've seen it many times. A cheating husband is a person I will not trust with a confidence, with my money, or to do my business. Often, I don't know whether a person is a dishonorable cheat, but, if I discover it, that is the last trust I will have in him. Same thing applies to women.
I can think of no more important position of trust than marriage. If a guy can't even maintain that level of trust, how can I trust him with anything? So, I don't.
Hmmm.
One wonders if the mineral primitive didn't vote for the Impeached One, then.
What the mineral primitive says is of course correct, absolutely correct, but one is still left wondering how he felt about the Impeached One.

29. What I find interesting is that you've chosen to concentrate on the sexual portion of my original post, while totally ignoring how each and every one of us are constantly getting screwed by our corporate owned politicians.
That would suggest to me that you either don't give a damn about the dilemma that the average person lives through daily. Either that, or you have a preoccupation with what others are or aren't doing in their bedrooms.
Either way, believe what you will and view the world as you will. But do you think you could possibly spare a word for the secondary point I was making in the OP about all of us getting screwed daily by those who are supposed to represent us?

19. That does not make it right, praiseworthy, or morally permissable.
Just because something IS does not mean that it is the right thing to do. Just because most men will cheat does not mean that they should cheat.

26. It's an incorrect statement, anyhow.
http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/wayoflife/10/03/o.why.me... /
"In a new study conducted by marriage counselor M. Gary Neuman, it's estimated that one in 2.7 men will cheat -- and most of their wives will never know about it."
That comes to 37%. Which means that 63% don't. Other stats support those numbers, more or less, but it's always a minority who cheat in the stats.
The OP is just plain wrong.

9. It's amazing how many weirdo DUers here try to justify cheating.
It seems to me that if someone wants to screw around on someone other than their spouse, they shouldn't be married in the first place.
I guess that concept is too advanced for some people.

You'll also lose the respect of those who honor their promises. A guy who won't isn't trustworthy, in my opinion.

38. Well, it seems that the average DU male has as much guts as the average Democratic congressman when it comes to speaking up for reality.
All of you holier-than-thou guys who have posted here must understand that you're in a minuscule minority because the average DUer can't answer without cutting himself off for a few weeks.
However, enjoy your righteousness. And be glad the census doesn't ask the questions that would freak you out if you ever saw the answers.

I dunno for sure, but it seems to me this campfire (in its entirety, above) didn't evolve the way Oscar Wilde had expected it to evolve.

I am sure he is otherwise a despicable rodent of a person, but on this point I have to agree with DUmmy Mineral Man.
If I know that a man has violated a solemn oath before God, which is what the marriage vow is, then in my mind he is devoid of honor in every other aspect of his life. I reject absolutely the premise that human nature makes such behavior unavoidable. That argument is just a refuge for scoundrels.

I get the impression, which might, or might not, be correct, that Oscar Wilde is a single, probably of the heterosexual persuasion, but single nonetheless, and that he's actually pretty low-keyed, when it comes to sexual desires.
Oscar Wilde seems to want to have been tempted, but hasn't been.
It's probably not that there's something in him that repels females, but just that he can't get all agog and excited about sex like most males do.
I don't suspect Oscar Wilde is impotent or anything like that; it's just that chocolate ice cream or lace doilies excite him more than sex does.
There are after all people like that.
Don't ask me how I figured this out, because I can't tell you; it's just that I've read so much of Oscar Wilde the past few years and this is the Freudian "picture" that's evolved.

This is why primtives are viewed as being extremely stupid; they can't make the connection between what they desire and what they say.

FRANK, give me a break here, ask any woman from grandma to a 16 year old niece, the last person they would ever expect to hit hit on them would be a married man.
For some reason we woman are taught that married men with children are safe people to associate with. From Pastor, Cop, Doctor, Teacher, to the friends of the family or relatives..
Unfortunately these are the very people that pray on woman.
Then when a man goes astray we blame the wife, obviously she is not giving him what he needs. ------How does this go, if the man is satisfied at home he will not stray so it is the fault of the wife for not satisfying her man.
So, a wife has sex with husband before work, when he comes home for lunch and before bed. Meanwhile the husband catches a bit of afternoon delight with a hooker for variety.
What the heck can we we woman know about a mans libero, all men are different and all have different needs.
Having been married a time or two, I have seen my husbands walk into posts, walls and darn fall into the middle of the street when they see a half naked woman either walk by or at the Casinos playing at the tables.
No threat to me, these are strangers and most of the time I point them out to him and laugh as they fall over their feet.
Men are born and made a sex machine, they have no choice but to keep the species going, it is in their DNA code.
Big difference between love and lust. Some of the worse hore dogs love their wives to the point they will kill those they lust for to keep their family intact.

My thoughts exactly. If you can't trust someone to be faithful, what can you trust them at? I had a partner once that I found out was cheating. Within months I had sold out. All I could think was if the guy would cheat on his wife, what would he do to his business partners.

You used to be married to Cyrano right? Because between us and the DUmmies only you two seem to think men can't keep it in their pants. I don't think cheating (which is VERY different from wanting to keep "the species" going) is in their DNA. There is a difference between love and lust, fortunately married couples who consider their vows sacred can have both. Wanting variety doesn't mean a guy has to stick his dick in someone else. There are plenty of ways to keep sex exciting without straying.
And a "whore dog" who would kill to keep his family intact (which, again, is NOT the same thing as honoring a commitment to your wife) isn't likely to give a rip about what his wife (or children) think. It's about possession, not love. I don't know what kind of men you've been around but I don't think I want to live in your world. What a sad world yours must be if you think so little of them.

As someone who is older than many of you.....in my adult life....most of the men who have "hit" on me....have been married.
And some of them were married to my friends.
Doctors, lawyers, and Indian Chiefs (business men).
Maybe it had to do with their career choices in that they were/are used to getting whatever they want....if they couldn't get it for free...they could buy it.
Do I agree with Cyrano's 97%....no.
But I would bet it's close to 50%.
Maybe I'm cynical....but I know too many men, who have thought nothing of cheating on their wives....and a high percentage of them are still married to the women they have cheated on for years.
Do the women know....in many cases... yes.
But they aren't willing to give up the "perks" that come with their marriage. The money, the status, the beautiful homes - at home and at the beach or the mountains - in some cases both, the trips.
The women are well aware....that if they leave the marriage....the perks will go away. Their husbands provide the large income which brings the great life. And the husbands will continue to live that life....with or without the wife.
The women have also stayed because of their children...and then stay because of their own age. Not many women are willing to walk away from a not so great marriage, but a great lifestyle - when they are in their mid to late 40's and beyond.
I know many women in this situation.....and they aren't leaving.
Nor are their husbands going to stop screwing around.
Maybe it's a Southern thing.

Not a southern thing.
Our culture has been reconditioned by government schools and the media, marriage is meaningless to a very large portion of people.

I think the secret lies in, "I've been married a coupls times", Cin. I can't imagine going thru it more than once. Lol! Besides, after 37 years, as of the 10th, "Toots" knows what to do better than any other female, heh, heh!

Alos, there is such a thing as being a WIDDOW who remarries you know.
As another poster pointed out one can tell the charactor of a man or woman by the way they treat not just their spouse but family also.
One does not have to do anything but live in the real world long enough and see what is going on around them. What a shock when people divorce after 30-40 years of marriage and none of their friends or family knew there were problems.
There is a darn good reason why Widows find themselves left out of their circle of friends, she becomes a threat to her friends that still have their husbands.
That said, they say the wife is the last to know. Not true, unless they end up in the headlines as Missing. There is the CAT in all woman, curiosity, a 6 sense when things change ever so slightly.
It drives me nuts to accidentally find out that a friends husband is cheating on her. I have to force myself to move away from them as the chances are that the wandering husband will go home to their family, wife never knows and the family stays intact. Perhaps this is a one time aberration for the husband.
Out right outrage when someone finds it their DUITY to inform the wife of the situation. how dare they interfear. Their excuse is that THEY would want to know if their hubby was cheating on them. Bull Crap-----they have become a catalyst to determine the future lives of an intire family.

Oh Johnny, how times have changed, you must be somewhere around my age.
25 years ago I might have agreed with you, today I think of a couple of cases of the least likely of people to fall in love with someone of their own sex.
I am not speaking of young men, I am speaking of men either in or near middle age that have raised their family's to adulthood and have the trust of the community in some way.
In some cases I am not sure this is all about sex, life style must change drastically for these men, now finally they can spend hours discussing sports with someone that understands what they are talking about.
Now they can go places and do things with a good "friend" that they would never think to bring a woman.
I am just speculating here on this deviation in life that comes about sometimes.
Personality plays a role, some men are very comfortable in their lives with females, others are the kind that work around men all day yet need to stop for a few beers with the boys after being with them all day. Nothing wrong with that unless it becomes a bone of contention between him and family.
[ Would a man put up with coming home from work, cooking dinner for the kids helping them with their home work, while the wife and mother was off in a woman's sports bar having a few brews after work playing darts and pool with the woman she spends 40+ hours a week with .?]
Sad part of the changes in life we see is that at one time in a divorce both sides demanded they have custody of the kids. Not at all unusual today for both party's to want the other partner to raise the kids.
Kind of CREEPY to watch life morph from what we know into some new world with no rules, no duty's, no morals but that of what the individuals makes for themselves.
Strangest divorce case I ever heard of was a woman who charged adultery against her husband with his Church. She claimed he spent more time tending to their Church then he did at home raising his kids, or being a husband to her.

Good thing that asshat isn't married to "Toots"! He'd be meeting a baseball bat in the middle of the night! He fails to realize many of us don't cheat, because it would be hazardous to our health!
My threat involves super gluing his nuts to his chest.

Oh Johnny, how times have changed, you must be somewhere around my age.
25 years ago I might have agreed with you, today I think of a couple of cases of the least likely of people to fall in love with someone of their own sex.
I am not speaking of young men, I am speaking of men either in or near middle age that have raised their family's to adulthood and have the trust of the community in some way.
In some cases I am not sure this is all about sex, life style must change drastically for these men, now finally they can spend hours discussing sports with someone that understands what they are talking about.
Now they can go places and do things with a good "friend" that they would never think to bring a woman.

Vesta you live in a very strange world. I think his point was "it takes two to tango". Granted, one can have an affair with someone of the same sex but the majority of people in this world are heterosexual. Thus, two people are involved in the deception, whether gay or straight.
Are you suggesting men have affairs with other men so they can discuss sports? Really? What would that be like? "Oh yeah! This Phillies won...let's suck each other off to celebrate!" What places would they go where they wouldn't take a woman? A gay bath house?
My husband didn't spend a lot of time in sports (or any other kind) of bar. As hard as he worked, had he wanted to go out with his buddies every week, I wouldn't have cared. But he didn't. He came home to be with his family. In my circle of friends that's what husbands do 99% of the time. Temptation and perversion has been around since the beginning of time (see Sodom and Gomorrah) so this kind of thing is nothing new. Honestly, if the world I found myself in was like yours, I'd find a better class of men.

I haven't been in a bar in at least 15 years! When I was, "Toots" was with me. Back when I was in my twenties and early thirties, I would go with the crew after work occasionally. I worked so often out of town, I wanted to spend as much time as I could with my wife and kids. "Numbers" must hang around a bunch of uncaring thugs!

Very true Cindie, I do live in a very strange and evolving world, I feel like Alice sometimes as nothing is the same as it seems, or was yesterday.
Mom and Dad married over 55 years to each other. Only ONE classmate had a step parent and no extended family's.
//////abortion was a horrible thing, 75% of the town folk went to church on weekends, we had school dances Friday nights, no booze or drugs, no fights.
No welfare for a long time, people fell on hard times the comunity helped them out.
Doctors made house calls until the mid 60's and let you pay when you could.
Kids got summer jobs at 14-15 and turned 75% of their wages over to the family to help out.
Strange new world, for us who mowed lawns and shoveled snow for our elderly neighbors without expecting to get but a hot or cold drink if lucky.
Somewhere between the 60's and today the Libs got a hold of people and from the new thinking began to make life miserable for people trying to parent their children.
All the EXPERTS in child development insisted it was mental child abuse to lay down rules for a child to follow. It was now expressing creativity for a 4 year old to mark up the walls in the house with their crayons. Children that swore and used bad language directed at their parents were only expressing their feelings.
When the kids got older and beat up Grandpa for not letting them drive his car, not the kids fault, they had a learning problem called anger management.
Kids were taught how to manipulate their family's by the schools, If family spanked them or took away favorite toys for a month, tell us. If Daddy smokes funny cigarettes, tell us.
Nothing wrong with taking a child to their parents church that will strip them bare naked and beat evil spirits out of them.
Nothing wrong for a school to strip search a child looking for drugs, like giving a girlfriend a Midol or Bufferin for cramps.
HOWEVER, if you are a 7 year old with Asama that needs an inhalator and a child with the same problem who forgot theirs at home has an attack, if they give theirs to them to keep them breathing-----O-Ho-----if on school bus or in school grounds----big discipline and exclusion from school for dispensing a drug.
TOPIC back to.
I watch and hide today this new strange world that began evolving when I was in mid twenty's when I was invited to join a Swingers club. This by a woman whose husband was a Captain in the Navy. Seems half the ward room was in on this hobby. Can't get much better class then Annapolis graduates married to woman they met at ivy league colleges.
Then the drugs, how often I would end up with 4 kids at their schools for an update on their work to smell pot in the teachers hair, or worse hit on by one of their male teachers.
Cindie Hon, I think you must be young and still have the illusion of youth that all is fine and dandy. You trust those that you have been programed to trust, have your best interests at heart, so you are told.
AOL says and rightly so, when a partner out of the blue decides to loose or gain weight, throws out all underware and buy new sexie stuff, takes up a hobby that does not include you, goes to visit relitives for a weekend, people they don't even like, gets lovie dovie more often, starts to bring you presents for no reason [ I call these guilt gifts ] then look out.
Now for the $65,000 dollar question, do I trust MY Hubby. YUP, but that is because I watch not him, but who he is around like a hawk----Woman friends that only come to visit when he is at home, Co-workers of his that may be having a conversation with him and I walk up, they walk away.
And the biggest tip off is when a man for little reason suddenly gets jealous of any man I talk to. This is a a tactic that men use and don't even realise it.
DUMMYS, not the men but the woman are thrown off when men do this. Woman believe that THEIR man is so in love with them they would never stray. Sad, when a acquantice or friend starts to tell me how jealous her man is , after seeing this happen over and over again, I have to bite my tongue and walk away knowing that something bad is going on.
Time tells Cindie, live a half century or longer and you will see it all.

Vesta, I'm 50 years old and my life hasn't been all sunshine and roses, so please don't "hon" me. However, I've lived long enough to be a fairly decent judge of character. I'd rather have a husband I don't have to watch like a hawk. Nor do I watch who he's around. Either way, you're choosing to not trust your spouse. That's not the basis for a good marriage. If it were me, I'd look for a better class of friends, figure out why I couldn't trust the man I married when he was around someone of the opposite sex, or get some counseling for my "trust" issues (maybe all three would be appropriate).
I know I'm going to regret this, but why the hell would "any man" be jealous when you talk to another man? And why would that be reason for suspicion? And why would you be suspicious? Don't you have any couples you're good friends with where there isn't a bit of harmless and fun flirting with each other?
And ya know what? My husband DID recently lose weight. He's older than me and still works very hard. To me, he's the most handsome man in the world, but I am worried that he has a history of heart disease in his family and those few extra pounds aren't healthy. So, I put him on the South Beach Diet AND bought him some sexy new underwear for Valentine's Day. According to your philosophy I should be worried.

Cindie, perhaps I don't express myself as well as I should or could.
I trust my Hubby but I sure as heck don't trust others and I for one have found no class of people to be immune to messing around.
You have no worry as it was YOUR idea for him to make some minor life style changes for his health.
One of the funniest things I have see was while working in an office the CEO's Secretary retired. Up popped this woman who was taking business classes in college. She was some kind of exchange student from France. Not only was she drop dead beautiful but she had that accent, liquid gold rolling off the tongue.
Not 2 days later every man in the office had gone out and gotten a hair cut if they needed one or not.

OMG!!!! The guys got a haircut in order to impress a sexy female! Must mean they all want to bed her! You really do have issues, don't you? The girls at work call me "CupCake" because I wear dress shirts to work every day, even an occasional tie! Must mean they all want to take me to bed! Gimme a break!

Errrr Allos, where did you get that idea that everyone wanted to bed her.? No they were most at least most of them just enjoyed being around her. Wanted to make a good impression and perhaps at times fantasize about her. She was way to far out of their league and they knew it, but they still fell over their feet when she spoke to them.
The girls at your work that call you CupCake is darn right odd you know. Why do you think that your wearing normal business attire would bring to a woman's mind a cupcake? Are you sure they don't mean twinkie.?

Well, what the hell else are you insinuating? Sure looks to me like you're sayin' all men cheat. No exceptions. If not, then perhaps your communication skills need a tune-up! You're the one sayin' you can't trust men, or am I missin' sumpin'?

They call me "CupCake" because they consider me handsome, asshole! Most of the guys at work wear T-shirts, rarely shave every day, and don't give a damn about their appearance.
Twinkie, indeed! FU!!!!!!!!1111 I have found women, especially my customers of the female persuasion, appreciate a "Sharp Dressed Man"!
