This is a very faulty reasoning but I'm not surprised because it's regurgitated in different forms.

The claim that all men are “created” to cheat is not biology — it’s justification.

Yes, men can feel attraction to multiple women.
But attraction is not the same as action.

Human beings are not animals ruled by impulse. We have: Self-control, moral reasoning, and Empathy. The ability to choose long-term stability over short-term pleasure

If “natural desire” excused behavior, then anger would justify violence, and greed would justify theft. Society exists because adults control impulses.

Plenty of men feel attraction and still choose loyalty. That proves it is a decision, not a biological destiny.

The claim that faithful men are either extremely religious, or too poor/unattractive to cheat is insulting to men and tells a lot about your personality.

Many financially successful, attractive, socially powerful men remain faithful. Not because they lack options — but because they value integrity and emotional peace

I always say it loudly. The family defines society - if a man cannot keep to a simple commitment to a woman, how can the same man fulfill political promises to society?

In environments where men are praised for cheating, more will cheat.
In environments where integrity is respected, more men remain faithful.

This shows its cultural conditioning — not biological inevitability.

Behavior is shaped by upbringing, peer influence, and cultural norms. I have many male friends who are financially successful and stick with their wives. I tell everyone extra marital affairs is expensive and not worth it.

Please, let's reject such lazy, backward thinking in favor of accountability and open communication.

If you are a man, I doubt you are financially buoyant and successful, until you attain that height, let's leave the discussion till then, have a great day and thanks for your attention to this matter

I have been married for 5 years and i can tell you that cheating is more expensive than being faithful.

Its stressful also and one can remain faithful if he wants to.

The way some of you reason here on this matter is just somehow! Is it that you don't know that there are many principled men out there who would not want to break their vows of fidelity and commitment to their wives regardless how rich they become or what? I don't know the cycle of men you have around you but my own cycle of men are principled and level-headed men who would not compromise their integrity for a few minutes of pleasure with some side chicks. And some these men I'm referring to are bastardly rich and influential in the society!

So, you guys need to stop with this annoying generalisation of all men as being incapable of staying faithful to one wife.

It's not a sin to marryany rether it's something implanted on us by the women forks

For safety of there comfort
Guaranty of the own selfish accomplishments which they want to gain from you only that's making them believe it's a promise to them alone you should commit

There is no Bible or Quran or traditional quote that say one man one women for ever

Can you substantiate your assertion of "all men cheat". If you have said most men, I wouldn't have objected to your assertion. If you believe that all men cheat, then all women cheat too. Which means you are a cheat too. There will always be an exception in every ALL.
Bros Tee, we are all cheats just that some are still on their way to cheating, so till death bed before we can know

....God created man and woman differently with various weaknesses and deficiencies more peculiar to different genders and if you dig deeper, they are for a reason, but as humans, we want to make sure we forcefully balance every human affair/activities in order to maintain a false sense of gender equality and balance which can never be achieved till the world ends.

Rutherinspace already answered you perfectly.

Claiming impulse has never been a good defence anywhere

You call it polygamy

While we call it wifes
Some say second wife

It all depends on how logical it sound to you

Like I started quote any of the manuscript that said you should not take second. Wife or third or fourth

If you can charterr for them

Don't let woman brain wash you

They only think of them self
Until old age then you begin to reason as you are supposed to
Because then when your children. Start to give birth and she start to visit
While you mostly alone then you ask your self some sensible. Question. That you need to ask your self now

Pls leave let me enjoy my morning. Roll

Both parties have equal rights
Do your things out there and respect your partner👬
franchasofficia:
I said it on the other thread.

A worthy man or a great husband is not determined by his sexual conduct alone. Any lady that rates a man based on his sexual weakness alone will definitely end up with horrible men.






The only perceived wrongdoing I know many good and wonderful married men commit against their wives is "having extramarital affairs" or keeping mistresses outside their marriage, and why I don't usually see this as a big deal is because that is how every sexually active man was created from birth; to want to explore or mate with other women he finds attractive, it's a natural deficiency in all sexually active men.


The few sexually active men (if any exist) that stay sexually faithful to one partner till death are those that did it out of extreme commitment to religious doctrines and those that lacked the privilege, the opportunities and financial capacity to explore.



So long as a man respects his wife, treats her well, takes very good care of her and the kids, takes full responsibility of the family and dependents, respects himself by being absolutely discreet with his affairs, I see no big deal in him having extramarital affairs responsibly, only his maker and God can judge him on the last day, thank you all for your attention to this matter
Re: Cheating Is Not Enough Reason To Leave A Man — Woman Sparks Debate by stainlink(m): 5:01pm On Feb 12
Temptation is a constant thing. It is the determination not to fall into it that makes you a faithful person.

It is not easy (for both a man and woman) but it is possible.

"But it is poss...". Good, good, you're getting there. You're a great person.....but somehow, again, my point is... you shouldn't forget about one weird, sometimes disgusting but great and simple law - Do not judge.... I wish you never ever fall bro. Take care.

I mean it is possible to stick to one partner. It should be a deliberate action never to fall for the unending temptation of cheating.

One love bro

Calling it wifes does not change the fact that it is polygamy.

And from the Bible stand, the Law on adultery stands against the practice of polygamy.

And so i asked How do you do polygamy without committing adultery? and you have not answered it

So, you are lying against the Bible unless you think you can answer the question

Condoms don't protect against every single STD.
Condoms break during intercourse. They are not 100% safe.

And this does not still answer the question how do you do polygamy without committing adultery?

For remember that this Law was given to people who already in the pagan practice of polygamy in Exodus and God was bringing them out of it and that is why you see in Exodus 20, they are commanded to put away their paganism and their gods like giving Nigerians this Law in 1627 when everyone was a pagan practicing polygamy

After David do you see anyone having more than one wife?

In Ezra 10: 19 And they gave their hands that they would put away their wives; and being guilty, they offered a ram of the flock for their trespass. So you are wrong
