For The Married Girl With Single Friends: It strikes me that this woman is enforcing a lot of our bad social prejudices, too. She acknowledges that the men in her group are just as "guilty of indiscretion" (guilty?!) as the women, but it's the women who bother her more. We're not a culture that holds men and women to equal standards when it comes to expressing sexuality, and she's probably been a victim of that herself. Also, why should them talking about their lives now be any different than before the wedding? I get the sense that there's a lot going on under the surface of this woman's question, and she might want to evaluate her own assumptions about men and women.
