  - so, what do you do if they insist? let them end it? -- nm - Andie Jun 6, 13:13 2

As an aside, I hope this pinhead quits. The monogamy issue is irrelevant to the fact that what he did is moronic. - David Jun 6, 13:02 13
- I can get him being a Twittiot. But the handling afterwards. Yeah, moronic. -- nm - ty97 Jun 6, 13:15

  - Politicians have shown themselves to be slimier and dirtier than average. I'd rather honesty in their work and let them screw whoever. - ty97 Jun 6, 13:01 15
    - I think you're wrong about people. they just don't show their slime because nobody's investigating them. -- nm - amanda Jun 6, 13:05
    - If a dude's going to cheat on one oath, odds are, he'll cheat on others. - Will Hunting Jun 6, 13:03 5
      - I don't think it's that simple. Cheating/divorce have become normal in our society. - ty97 Jun 6, 13:06 4
        
        Let's say your 50% is right. There's 250mil of-age people in this nation to represent us - Will Hunting Jun 6, 13:08 1
        
        I think the political pool has a much higher percentage of the cheaters. - ty97 Jun 6, 13:17
        
        If we're embracing cheating, there would be no scandal right now. -- nm - loosilu Jun 6, 13:06 1
        
        Not necessarily. As David says above, this whole Wiener thing isn't about cheating. - Dr.Vermin Jun 6, 13:09
    - I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. If you'll cheat on a spouse then you are less likely to be faithful to your oath of office. - TWuG Jun 6, 13:03 4
      - This is all because of George Washington. -- nm - Spawn Jun 6, 13:04 3
        
        I think Tommy J might be more the standard being followed here. - TWuG Jun 6, 13:06 2
        
        Just saying, if "I can not tell a lie" had never been said, we might be a bit more European about this stuff. -- nm - Spawn Jun 6, 13:13 1
        
        It wasn't said. It came out of him having a lot of personal integrity. - TWuG Jun 6, 13:18
    - you can have both. it's not either or -- nm - moles Jun 6, 13:02 2
      - This is what you're choosing to be an optimist about? Honest, non-adulterous politicians? - ty97 Jun 6, 13:04 1
        
        i'm not as pessimistic as you about all politicans being dishonest non-cheaters. you get a biased sample because the media only does stories about - moles Jun 6, 13:07
- Not at any given time, but long-term, yes that sounds about right. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 6, 12:57
- I do believe I've read that *but* don't have a source handy to verify. -- nm - ty97 Jun 6, 12:57
- Out of my crew of friends HS. About 11 are married. I know that at least half actively cheat on their wives. -- nm - Jovian Jun 6, 12:57 29

    - slut walk! -- nm - Don Homer Jun 6, 13:05 5
      - I walk of shamed home from eleanor's last saturday morning. I felt so trashy! - amanda Jun 6, 13:06 4
        
        I either don't understand "walk of shame" or had missed an interesting development in the Mandy Show. - TWuG Jun 6, 13:09 2
        
        I think she's saying that just being hungover and walking home is indistinguishable from WoS. -- nm - Reagen Jun 6, 13:10 1
        
        Ah. Gotcha. -- nm - TWuG Jun 6, 13:14
        
        heh. I loved walking through downtown SC on an early Sunday morning. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 6, 13:08
  - Off my head, I only know of two long term marriages where neither party has cheated to the best of my knowledge. - David Jun 6, 12:59 21
    - How long is long term? We're at 16. :) -- nm - Jim Jun 6, 13:01 10
      - I'll be at 17 this October - TWuG Jun 6, 13:12
      - That's pretty awesome. -- nm - David Jun 6, 13:05 1
        
        20 if you count the dating and engagement period. -- nm - Jim Jun 6, 13:07
      - So, you are not counting StLouistravaganza? -- nm - Spawn Jun 6, 13:03 6
        
        Whoa whoa whoa...swapping counts as cheating??? -- nm - Jim Jun 6, 13:03 5
        
        what could I have gotten for Will? nm -- nm - groiny Jun 6, 13:04 1
        
        $20 more than you did get. - Will Hunting Jun 6, 13:05
        
        key parties, too. -- nm - Reagen Jun 6, 13:04 2
        
        yeah. *one.* -- nm - amanda Jun 6, 13:04 1
        
        glory holes are fine though as long as there's a reasonable expectation that it was your partner on the other side. -- nm - Reagen Jun 6, 13:05
    - Among my friends I'm only aware of a couple that have cheated. Like less than 20%. Doesn't mean it hasn't happened more though. -- nm - pmb Jun 6, 13:01 3
      - That surprises me. Frankly, I wish I knew about some of my friends and loved ones. -- nm - David Jun 6, 13:03 2

        Sex problems, didn't want to talk about it directly, knew the marriage was doomed. It happens a lot. -- nm - David Jun 6, 13:05 2
