Sex is the love of the opposite sex's parts.

What does it say about the men who are looking for married women?


Well, like I said, it's gross.

But to answer your specific question: It says they have no respect for other people's relationships and that they are looking to cheat without repercussions. They think because the other person is married, they won't expect them to leave their own marriage. That isn't true, though. There is still a chance the person they're cheating with would want to bust up both marriages and continue in a new one with the fellow cheater.

It's really a messy situation and I can't imagine what could be worth it.

One of many of the world's sordid realities.

Nothing good. We have something like that in Canada too, it's pretty low for someone to start a business like that...

Sad, maybe. Low, yes. Opportunistic, definitely. Successful? Probably so. That's the world we're stuck in.

Not something I'd condone but ...

Wish I had thought of it....

Got to be earning a few bucks owning that site.

The site isn't going to make people any more or less monogamous.

It's not always the person who cheats who is solely responsible either.
They wouldn't be looking if something wasn't missing in their relationship.
They would do better to talk to their spouse about it but it's much more shades of gray than black and white.

I disagree that people cheat because there's something missing in their relationship. Some people are compulsive sexaholics. Some people cheat on their honeymoon! What could be missing on the honeymoon?

Some people want their cake and eat it, too.

Looking at porn is fine in my opinion.

Porn is degrading to women.It doesn't do men any good either.

That depends on your definition of "porn." There's a big difference between the stereotypical hardcore "porn star" type and the artistic, soft type found on sites like Hegre-Art, DOMAI, etc. In fact, I'd say the latter type actually improved my views on sexuality, women, nudity, and perhaps even life in general. On the other hand, I can see your point when discussing some of the crazier fetishes... which are beyond the scope of this post.

These people are married though. They're supposed to be in love, it makes love seem almost nonexistent.


They are just obsessed with sex which is outside of love. They arent "getting enough" at home. Its an addiction in itself that they don't control. I think too many view sex as a 'need' but those who aren't getting it are still alive.

I like my porn. I agree with you - but I like it. I guess I like all my addictions.

Wait. Now this thread is talking about porn. That isn't what this is about. Did some people not follow the link?

conversations should have flow and life. Don't worry, I'm sure some topic fascist will correct it (or someone not wanting to read lots of posts).
