Men like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tiger Woods, Jesse James and John Edwards had it all: talent, fame, money, and a beautiful family. Yet, with everything to lose, they were accused of cheating on their wives. Why would men throw it all away?
Approximately 40% of men seek sexual satisfaction outside their relationships, estimates Kat Hertlein, Ph.D., professor of human development at the University of Nevada - Las Vegas and a marriage and family therapist.
That number hasn’t changed much since 1950, when the famous Kinsey sex study found that 50% of U.S. men cheat at some point in their marriages.
Why They Cheat
The No.1 reason: Men crave sexual “variety,” according to David Buss, professor of psychology at the University of Texas and author of The Evolution of Desire: Strategies of Human Mating (BasicBooks).
“They’ve evolved the desire to be with different women,” he says.
That’s because it’s very simple for men to reproduce (one act of sex versus nine months of pregnancy for women), so to create as many offspring as possible they’re biologically programmed to mate with many women.
“The ‘payoff’ in reproductive currencies [kids] of a short-term mating strategy generally has been higher for men than women,” Buss says.
I can tell you why I would cheat, sex with my wife has lost all passion. Before marriage we were like rabbits. every day. she did everything. Now once or twice a month and on a scale from 1 to 10 it would be about a 3. before marriage she use to suck me dry all the time. Now I cant even remember the last time she even took me in here month. I truly believe most men would not cheat if their women would make sure they are stratified. I under and some men will cheat no matter what. But from what I have seen men do it because there wives do not make any effort to please them, they think all they have to do is show up.
