[QUOTE="anonymous4, post: 1194304, member: 30532"] Evolutionary psychology generally agrees humans are polygamous in nature with some monogamous tendencies. Are you not a human? The brush isn't exactly broad, we all fall under the same umbrella. Studies place affairs in committed "monogamous" relationships at 50-80%. And how do you get a truthful body of responses to such a topic? As a self-aware species, every person should have the ability to define themselves as monogamous if they so chose. You can absolutely tell yourself you are committed to one person and fight your natural instinct for a life time. This does not make you naturally monogamous, just someone with dedication to a certain goal. 50-80% of humans don't seem to be capable of doing that long-term. As a species, we are most certainly not defined as monogamous. I will also incite more violence in this thread. Why is the divorce rate so high? As a UPS employee you are not home. Most people will form resentment towards someone and drifting apart would be all too common in such a scenario. You are completely compatible with an estimated 300,000 other human beings. Chances are there is another man out there who can provide more than you while also being around the home. I also question a lot of men and their ability to look at this reality and make the changes needed to give them the best shot at a successful monogamous relationship. How many of you are truly in-tune with what the opposite sex really needs in a partner to not stray? Are you fat? A terrible lover? An abusive husband? A poor listener? There are so many factors a man can change to stack the cards in his favor when it comes to women. If you value your wives one would think you would do everything you could to be the end-all-be-all so straying was not an option as there could be no better. This would be an every day battle to improve yourself and I don't get the feeling many people take part in such activities. It's more like come home at 9pm, crack a beer and watch the world spin around. The previous paragraph was definitely painted with a "broad brush" and is merely an observation, certainly not applying to all of you. [/QUOTE]
