Yes, our feeling of morality has changed over the ages, but I think there is an underlying principle that hasn't changed, which is to reduce the amount of suffering for a specific group of individuals (the "in-group", as opposed to the "out-group" which is all live that must serve to minimize the suffering or maximize the utililty of the "in-group").
At least from what I can see all that has changed over the ages is the definition of this in-group, not the concept of morality itself.

I really don't see cheating as wrong, as long as I'm open to the fact that I may cheat. I make it very clear, I ain't playing no games...because I will find someone else.

I've self-imposed a series of rules that will lead me to cheating. If any fails, I don't cheat.
1 - The other party must initiate... that is, the woman who I may cheat with would have to approach me and go through the motions. I don't take the first step. How likely is that? well... in 8 years of marriage, it hasn't happened once!
2 - The other party must be beautiful.... I mean more beautiful than my wife... To me, beauty is all about the face. It's got to be worth it, after all!
3 - The other party must be sexy... sexier than my wife... this is all about the body. Nice proportions, well sculpted, bla bla bla... It's got to be worth it, right?
Fail any of these rules and I don't get to cheat.
I guess I'll be an old bugger before a cute and hot girl hits on me. So my wife's safe.... until then.

I disagree. anything goes morally, and without limit.

Your disagreement seems to be based on your ass.

It's about the same as it's ever been. Studies of blood tests on infants in the fifties were suppressed from the public due to the high percentage of babies who weren't fathered by the women's husband.

Because you're a very angry spirit 
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

I, personally, am of the opinion that good morals are what happen when you don't try to make people believe bullshit claims, and that bad morals are what happen when you try to bring some kind of justification to what morality is.
Case in point: "Negros are inferior." This was a bullshit claim used to justify slavery, and thanks to genetics and studies of the human anatomy, we now know that claiming that any group of humans are inferior based on mere skin color or eye color or hair color is totally in error. Racism was morally accepted because people started trying to create a morally-accepted reason for why slavery was OK.
Take away bullshit claims, and you take away immorality.
