Maybe for the first child, but what about subsequent children?? How will a husband EVER be sure?????????
Thank goodness there are DNA tests now, right?
I heard some number in terms of percentage of families where one of the kids isn't actually from the bio dad. Mom was breaking some off on the side. Heck we have one in our extended family, one of Mrs. Chow's cousins. Supposedly he is unaware that his dad isn't his bio dad. I don't know, just looking at him he doesn't resemble anyone else in the family.
I forget how often is happens but it was a larger amount than I thought. Sorta depressed me to be honest.
That's why we are here! To experience things! There is a quote by Anais Nin that says, "Your world is as big as you make it," and I absolutely believe that is true. Sure, some experiences are more enjoyable with others, but we are not put here with a pain-free guarantee.
There is 100% nothing wrong with having experience, and to deride someone for that is purely sour grapes.
Live or don't live, but stop trying to make other people feel bad for not living their lives the way you would.
Who said anything about deriding anyone, you can have all the experience you want but you can't expect for your future partners to be happy about it.
I have never been with a man who complained about it
But I also would never be with anyone who judged my experience as if I should be wearing a scarlet letter either.
IMHO, those kinds of guys who are threatened by a woman who has been with other men don't need to be in relationship with anyone.
Is it too much to want a future partner with a similar history to mine? What's wrong with a virgin wanting another virgin regardless if they are threatened by someone's history or not?

Yeah....women are not really different from guys in "stepping out". You'd just think they'd be likelier to try to prevent the pregnancy...unless hubby was having trouble.

Very simple stuff.
My guess is that Screami is someone with a very small world who can't imagine anyone else's being different.

Cheating on a married spouse is ugly, gender doesn't matter. Betrayl is betrayl. No one sex has a monopoly on loyalty.
I have never cheated on any GF's. Not bragging, but just saying I was lucky enough to not put myself in places where misunderstanding can happen. People who do cheat if they see the error in their ways and truly have remorse then it's fine. We all make mistakes and do stuff that we know we shouldn't be doing. My dad was one of those old school guys where in his mind it was just how men were back in the day. He didn't even make any bones about it. Heck, he brought around one of his GF's when I was probably 12 or so. He was married to my stepmom and didn't seem like he had any regrets about cheating. It bothered me on a few levels but wasn't much a little kid can do in that situation.
I learned how to avoid treating women like objects from that. Small glimmer of positivity from some crappy acts I suppose.
