WHY MEN CHEAT
Mrs. Cranky recently sent me a video about “Why Men
Cheat.” It came from a love and
relationship expert who was responding to a question from a listener. Her answer was surprising.
This expert, a woman, asserted that men cheat not for
sex, but because of a lack of appreciation at home. They cheat because they are not treated
special. They cheat because they are not
acknowledged.
Very interesting.
It must be true because it comes from a love and relationship
expert. I would have become a love and
relationship expert but they did not offer a love and relationship curriculum
when I went to College. I wonder what
chapter in the love and relationship book covers “Why Men Cheat?”
Leave it to a woman to take the simplest question about
men and make it all about feelings. She
took a question about men and answered it with a female brain. To back up her position she questioned 30 men
on the subject and they agreed with her assertion.
Where did she find 30 men who cheat? Let me rephrase that…Where did she find 30
men who would admit to cheating? As an
expert on love and relationships she does not understand a very simple
fact. When it comes to sex, MEN LIE!
If you interviewed 100 men on the size of their manhood,
you would learn that the average size is a little over eight inches. When it comes to sex, MEN LIE! If you ask men why
they cheat, you will find it is because their wife doesn’t understand them and
they aren’t treated special, and they are not acknowledged. When it comes to sex, MEN LIE!
Men say this shit, because women believe it.
The real answer is very simple. Men cheat because:
1. They are not getting laid enough
OR
2. Men cheat because they can
A man who has a satisfying sex life at home and travels
on a business trip will not look to get laid on that trip…unless he has the
chance to get laid. Then he will cheat. (Well not your man, but most men.)
Professional athletes travel, are wealthy, are in shape, are
generally attractive, and are surrounded by women looking to score with someone
famous and wealthy. A high percentage of
professional athletes cheat. Is there
something about professional athletes that makes a high percentage of them not
appreciated, treated special or acknowledged by their wives? I don’t think so! They have the opportunity, it is easy, and
they cheat.
Why do people make questions about men so
complicated? When you want to know why
men cheat, why do people ask a woman?
Oh wait…I forgot…when it comes to sex, MEN LIE!
I agree. Men lie about sex and so do women. Anything to justify their poor choices!
ReplyDeleteFunnily enough, when I'd just seen the title and before I actually read this I thought, 'because they can' - I may even have read this the first time round and said the same thing.
ReplyDeleteA man (or a woman) can throw as many excuses at it as they like but in the end it's mostly just because they can.
It is a biological imperative. And yeah, because we can.
ReplyDelete"Men are pigs." - A direct quote from my ex-husband who is anything but.
ReplyDeleteMy husband has NEVER cheated on me!! At least, that's what he said when I asked him--& he's a lawyer. We all know lawyers never lie.
ReplyDeleteIt seems a bit ridiculous to expect a woman to accurately explain male behavior. I'd hazard a guess that if a man were pressed to explain the reasons behind his own cheating, half the time, HE wouldn't have a definitive answer, no matter how hard he wracked his brain. Know why? Because a man's urge to cheat doesn't have much to do with thoughtful consideration; more than likely, it arises from that "other" head.
ReplyDeleteFun post. I think the problem here is that many men are not wired for monogamy. These men should never marry, and I see nothing wrong with men who want casual sex without commitment so long as they are honest and upfront about it. But unfortunately, as you've pointed out, MEN LIE!
ReplyDeleteWhen I started reading this post, I thought for sure that you were going to back that crack pot of a "professional" about why men cheat. I was relieved to read that you didn't. I agree completely agree Men to lie when it comes to sex.
ReplyDeleteIt's a faulty study right from the get go because she was interviewing men who routinely LIE to their spouses. Why did she think they'd tell HER the truth?
ReplyDeleteWe lie. Yup. That's a big ol' truth there.
Also, most men are able to separate sex from love. We realize that one does not necessarily have to have the other to be a good thing. Most women are less able to do that.
Gotta love those "experts" don't you. Nothing like hearing the opinion of a qualified sexologist. I just want to know where I go to get a degree in sexology.
ReplyDeleteMeh. Who cares why. Just leave them behind!
