Looking though all of history, including recent history with Arnold's situation, I have to ask this question. Is monogamy a myth? I asked this question on my facebook page and a (single) female friend said something to the effect of: "No, no, no. It can't be a myth. I don't want it to be a myth." On another question I asked, a (married) male friend said something like: A guy can't eat the same thing everyday.
It seems women want it to be real (and are willing to live in denial if necessary), and men are shaking their heads if not literally at least by their actions.
I have known men that are good husbands, fathers, providers, men with apparently good moral standards that shocked me when I found out they cheated on their wives. I found myself asking if XYZ can cheat, then there is no hope. I try not to be cynical but when 'good men' fall you gotta ask, "is this for real?" Right now I'm at the point where if I heard Obama cheated on Michelle, I won't be surprised.
Are we in denial? Should we just accept that men will cheat and the one who does not cheat is just lucky/blessed/different/hasn't been exposed?
