What a complete load of crap. Yeah we have urges. Human beings are different from animals specifically because we can control ourselves. Adultery is just about the worst non-violent thing that one person can do to another. Some men and women lack consideration in this area. Most men and women do not lack this consideration. This article is simply making excuses for the sluts of the world. I have seen similar articles for men. I have no use for anyone who strays.
Read the article carefully. The university study only found that women view men differently at different times of their menstrual cycle. It is the writer of the article who made the giant leap that this is an excuse for cheating.
Can we? I doubt it. If we could, there would be no need for state-sanctioned marriage, would there? I mean, it basically boils down to a contract against adultery, right?
Beyond that, you might have a problem finding a distinction between an excuse for cheating, and an explaination. I dont see anyone making excuses for adultery, I see someone trying to explain adultery.
The fact is that Adultery has been around forever, regardless of it's obvious negative impact on families. Why is this? It is lazy thinking to just call everyone who cheats a "slut".
It is fine to make a moral judgement against cheaters if you wish, but there are valid reasons for trying to understand WHY people cheat as well. Bottom Line: People cheat, and will continue to do so.
It's not physically violent, but it is most certainly emotional 'violence'.
Oh really, Have you seen footage of the Wellstone memorial service?
Wait you said human beings and those folks were democrats.....never mind.
