Wow, those surveys where married women reported themselves happy, you accepted unquestioningly. But here, suddenly, "experts" nudge the numbers higher and you nod along because self-reporting is no longer to be trusted. Hm.

Actually I just copied and pasted the statement in its entirety from Google.

Oh ho ho, no, you aren't sliding that by me. If surveys place men at 20-25%, why aren't experts suggesting that their numbers are higher too? Only the women!

Maybe those taking the surveys or shrinks or whomever they were referring to as "experts" felt women were more likely to under report their own infidelity more than men were. Dunno. Just a guess.

Can you really not see your bias?

Can you really not see that I just copied and pasted?

In any case, infidelity and abuse were significantly down the list of reasons why women file for divorce.

Significantly? You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means. If one in four women are being abused, that is significant. If infidelity is possibly as high as 55%... that is significant. My God. Even the low end posited 1 in 5 being cheated on.

If one in five Nissans explode when you start them, would you buy one??
