Farsala said: I am conflicted because 60% of relationships have infidelity (or so I am told). And it is in human nature to have multiple people to have sex with. Not only that but society does not condemn those cool drunken cheaters much at all. I would never cheat unless she wanted to swing. But having multiple partners is a natural thing and divorce rates are facilitating that. Being stuck with the same person was created by kings in authority long ago. |
Just because something is deemed "natural" doesnt mean that its right. If that were the case why would we need laws? and I dont think having multiple partners is natural dont know what the hell your basing that off. I know people who are high school sweethearts and been married for 30+ years,

If having one single partner all your life is natural then your body should "naturally" turn off any type of attraction to anyone else the moment you find "the one". But we all know that certainly doesn't happen.
I'm in a happy commited relationship too, to a very attractive woman, but I'm not going to lie and say I change the channel when I see a sexy woman on the TV or I've never, ever once while dating her ever thought of having sex with a different girl. Pretty much all married men look at porn, and they sure as hell are not thinking about their wife when going through their porn stash.
I know people who are in 30+ year relationships and didn't even know each other before marriage (arranged marriage) and honestly their marriage is stronger than anyone elses marriage that I know. But that doesn't mean romance or the courtship period is completely invalid.
Modern marriage is just a man made creation to keep society somewhat more streamlined and mostly to protect the rights of a woman for the sake of child rearing. If there was some terrible war/plague or something that wiped out say 90% of humanity, their value system would likely change in a hurry and men would likely be encouraged to fuck and women would be encouraged to be promiscious because it would be advantagous to society to repopulate quickly.
But that's kinda beside the point in this instance (though a fun conversation), I don't think the hackers are in the right.
