I think what he said is true. I think overall if a man is having enough good sex with his partner, he is less likely to be unfaithful.

Men need sex. So when they are in a marriage where sex has gone try, chances are good, they are looking elsewhere.

Men, do you agree, disagree? What are your thoughts?
Guys fall in different categories. I would (and have) gone sexless in a marriage if it were for a good reason...and I wouldn't cheat, it's just not in me.

Eventually, as you age and medical issues inevitably occur sex is going to go through dry spells etc. Not so sure I'd want to be married to someone that would start looking outside the marriage if we hit a rough patch.

From my own experience, women are less likely to stray in a relationship if the sex is good. Men (most not all) crave variety so your mileage may vary.

I disagree.

Once again, what's a woman's excuse when she cheats?

Women cheat as much and more than men in some cases. Therefore, it is also in the very nature of women to cheat.

You have to know what your partner wants and satisy them, man or woman, or else they will stray.

Heck, you can find good sex anywhere. A loving, understanding partner is a much rarer thing. Once you experience it and then lose it, you'll do just about anything to have it back again.

Seriously?

I'd never considered that....

I mean, yeah, if the kids are in the next room or something I can see that, but.....

In either way for the man or the woman, if they aren't getting it at home, they are going elsewhere...Period.
