she doesn't have as much free time to "pay attention" to that "fragile" male ego nor does she often-times have the energy to desire sex (although she would probably still like to cuddle and snuggle). The men, in the mean time, see the expanding waist-line and lack of attention to them as total disinterest and begin to (maybe) unconsciencely seek the attention of another woman. If/when they DO receive this "outside" attention, they carry things too far (an affair, etc.) and then when the wifey finds out and files for divorce, SHE gets blames for "initiating" said proceedings.

Sounds like you have it all worked out...I notice women do that alot...Perfectly good reasons to ignore what he wants, but still expecting to have her needs served. Did I mention the ubiquitous condesention?

Honestly, I resent the implication here. I wasn't attempting to make a blanket declaration. I was responding to a post that decried the fact the it's mostly the women who initiate divorces that never bothered to take into consideration the fact that there just MAY be some underlying reasons for this. I NEVER implied that (or if I DID, I apologize) one or the other was completely at fault nor that there wasn't room for improvement on both sides.
