Before I start, let me just say this is a genuine interest that I'm curious what others' views are on this topic. Granted, I may not have come up with this topic 2 months ago on my own. But right now, I've been doing a lot of reading on it and so it's ignited a curiosity in me to see what others think.
So I quote from the Top AZer you've had intimate relations with thread:
And these were some articles I had posted in that thread (plus a couple more with great info):

So I quote from the Top AZer you've had intimate relations with thread:
Attitudes definitely change. Infidelity is probably no more rampant now than it was 30 years ago. It's just that 30 years ago, people didn't divorce over it... whereas I read a stat this morning that at least 50% of divorces these days are due to infidelity.
Makes you wonder.... are we really meant anthropologically to stay monogamous to one partner for a lifetime? Or do you think that longer life expectancies have led to an increase in divorces because people realize they'll have to spend a longer life with a partner? Or is it maybe that people today are just plain selfish and only care about #1 instead of giving and taking like you would in a mature relationship?
I'm really interested in views on this... maybe I should make a new thread?
