Whenever I hear some news/rumours/allegations from a friend or family about So and So cheating on their wife, I'm always surprised at the overwhelmingly cold, dismissive, highly judgemental, and repulsed attitudes of the whisperers.
People's need/wants to satisfy one's cravings don't automatically stop because they've said some words at some marriage ceremony. We are all humans and at some point for those of us who are married, things in the marriage will turn to shit and/or your spouse will stop being interesting/appealing in the bedroom. We all need to blow off some steam.
People who stay loyal to their spouse are often so quick to feel morally superior to cheaters but I suspect that every person has his/her price. It's just that for some people it may be a bit higher.
After all, most if not all people end up marrying a person they find to be less than absolutely number one on their Sexiest Person list. Even when they are saying those fatalistic words in that church, no doubt both parties secretly or openly have celebrity crushes they find hotter than the person they are wedding.
Imagine if years later that celebrity shows up at the right time and takes an interest. I think when that happens pretty much everyone would cheat. Thankfully though, most of us only get close to a few people of the interested gender in our lives. But IF we are faced with sufficient temptation... I think at that point anyone would cheat.
Cheating is human right?
Do you think society's too harsh and hypocritical towards cheaters? I think so.
