    i love a womans butt as much as the next guy, but we are all people with compassion, not mindless animals looking to carry on our dna.

    Just curious. I think it's a cop out, but I also know some with this excuse every day!

    I think people are wired to cheat; most make a choice not to because of conditioning via parenting, religion, society, or wherever else you get your values.

    No. Although we are wired to at least think about having sex with every woman we see. Doesn't mean we would, even if we could.

    only if their brain is from the stone age

    Only the most modern, highly-evolved, human-like tiny bit of your brain is from the stone age. The rest of it is millions of years of instinct and cold-hard-decision-making. Societal constraints have changed, but your brain is still very much the same as those of stone-age 'savages'.

    LMFAO. I think females are worse than men nowadays. Not all men are cheaters. Nor are all women. Some just have weaker mindsets.

    No one is 'wired' to cheat! Male or female! You can't think that someone is going to do the same thing someone else did, just because they are the same gender - that is ridiculously ignorant!

    Agree Agree Agree!

    It's cute when women confuse their emotions with basic biology. :wink:

    Just want to clarify... I've been happily married for 10 years. No cheating on either sides thankfully. A family member is going through this and he's giving this excuse and I've met others who have too. I just wanted people's genuine thoughts/answers.

    edited to add I didn't mean any offence with this post or to make a prejudice judgment against men/women

    Actually as a human being we are wired to pro-create.... so ... in a way we are all wired to have multiple partners and monogomy is not something natural - we as human have chose to make it as such.

    I don't think its a "man" thing. Men and women both cheat. That being said, humans are animals and have hormones and i think that its unrealistic to mate for life. Prime example, the divorce rate (of course thats not the only reason). It all comes down to if both people truly love the other person enough to never be with anyone else, even during dry spells and bad times. I think having friendship, along with love is the best way to "prevent" this or have a better chance. I

    Please give an example of the sexism that you were speaking about. I re-read the posts and didn't see it.

    I would say females are just as bad. I know plenty who have and do. Sadly.

    I'm 43 and never ever have I physically cheated. I have flirted and still do to this day. Wife still gets ticked off at me from time to time

    LOL Funny that you do it on purpose like my hubby

    My hubby flirts openly in front of me all the time. then as i walk past says baby they were flirting with me. i am secure enough in our relationship and myself to tell the woman or group of women that they don't want him it took me 10 years to housebreak him, hes too old to start again. Hubby just laughs.:laugh: Neither of us have ever cheated and we don't have the desire to. I think that some women and men are preprogrammed to cheat based on their confidence levels in themselves and their relationships. I have a Golden Rule: You can't make him/her stay if they don't want to. If they cheat kick *kitten* and kick them out!

    I feel that he is copping out and not owning his choice to cheat. If I'm wired to cheat, then I should be able to argue that I'm wired to kill when angered, too. The only thing I am wired to do is make a choice. Just remember, where you invest your love is where you invest your life. Sounds to me as if this guy has chosen his "life".

    I don't buy that. I think some PEOPLE may be 'wired to cheat' but don't think its gender specific at all....

    Ditto.


    Some people can commit and some people can. Not just Men or Women. I have had several friends who are ladies that I saw not only cheat on their s/o but treat them like utter crap. (needless to say I am no longer friends with them.) It goes both ways. It is an excuse.
