Let Ron White explain this one:





Bear in mind, monogamy might seem like an intuitive choice for sexuality, but in practice (and especially throughout history), it's very much the exception rather than the norm, whether it's the polygamy endemic in Biblical times, or the more common practice of keeping a wife to keep the family going, but still sleeping around for other purposes, whether it's the classic King Charles II example of having a Queen Catherine to keep up appearances and the bloodline and a Nell Gwyn for other purposes the Queen can't fulfill, or just screwing around out of a desire to have a little fun with someone else (case in point: I had a bisexual coworker when I worked at my college's scene shop; to the best of my knowledge, since she wasn't very good at explaining it, it seems she wanted one guy to live with, love, and impregnate her, and when it came to girls? ALL OF THEM. She at one point toyed with being engaged [to be fair, her idea of marriage, even in her early twenties, didn't seem that different from Tom Sawyer's] with the only other girl on the team who swung that way, and she still flirted with other girls and regularly went to titty bars. The only female worker I didn't see her making a pass at worked on different days than she did.)

Here are some interesting demographics of infidelity in marriage:

Men are overall more likely to cheat than women, though the rate of women cheating is 1% higher for people under 30. After that, the rate of men being more likely to cheat increases pretty dramatically all the way up into old age.

It takes "2" to tangle, which means that one group must be lying. (Guess who?)

You think so?



She usually looks as if she just swallowed a dozen lemons.

Maybe its from being married to that shitwit but she knew what she was getting herself into.

Or an unmarried partner in the mix, who would not have been included in the study. That line of reasoning is certainly valid for some studies, like those where men have six times more sexual partners than women, but perhaps not as suspect in this case. The study I’m talking about is here, by the way:
http://www.academia.edu/5408999/Changes_...h_policies
The six to one ratio is roughly the number of reported sexual partners between men and women in France in 1970. It’s narrowed, but it’s still questionably high, unless there was an official “village bicycle” in parts of France in 1970 that’s in the process of being phased out.

Yeah, she's a good looking woman and looks great for her age especially. I don't get anyone saying otherwise.

If she smiled her jaw would fall off.

Women are not honest to researchers/pollsters regarding their infidelities.  You need to read your sources critically, as a scientist would!

Typically, though, there are direct crossovers -- individuals who are once-divorced will marry once-divorced individuals, twice-divorced, etc.  But, even so, people who cheat typically do so with other married individuals; it is just that men are more forthright about their shenanigans than are women when speaking to pollsters and other researchers.  I do not know how anyone can realistically expect to correct for such biases in their datasets, and so, I am more inclined to believe the adhoc judgments of professional researchers in this area than the summarized statistical data.

This is what differentiates the hard sciences from the soft ones.

Sexual power 

The idea that one can keep a permanent partner but also have any other woman they desire . 

Frankly i find it rather pathetic . If you want multiple partners simply pursue a partner who's will to share . Of course you had best be prepared to have that go both ways .
