I dunno, there's really only one interpretation that makes sense. Legolas Send a noteboard - 29/07/2010 10:29:48 PM
I would say 100 percent of men cannot be mentally monogamous, in that they are biologically programmed to assess the sexual attractiveness of every single woman they see.

Does this mean 0% of men are able to be "mentally monogamous", or that the figure is not 100% but something less? That's an error margin of 99.999999999 percentage points...

The latter interpretation here is so trivial that she wouldn't bother saying it, so it has to be the former - which is rather wrong if you ask me. There's gay people, for starters, and asexual people. And then there's those where repression or traumas just inhibit any normal sexual life.
Also, the 100% claim is answering a different question to that asked, so it's doubly useless. It's not news that we check out hot girls who walk past. It's idiotic to equate that with actually cheating.

Exactly.

Do All Men Cheat? LadyLorraine - 29/07/2010 09:03:09 PM 1784 Views
Is it just me, or does the paying kind of make her something else than a "mistress"? Legolas - 29/07/2010 09:30:56 PM 1349 Views
that was the idea i'm aware the article is FULL of holes *NM* LadyLorraine - 29/07/2010 10:16:00 PM 579 Views
Her "100%" claim was ambiguous in the worst possible way. Tim - 29/07/2010 10:21:13 PM 1285 Views

Well, gay men have had the reputation for being exceptionally promiscuous, so don't discount them. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/07/2010 09:33:45 AM 683 Views
Sure, but it's not women they look at and think about. *NM* Legolas - 30/07/2010 09:55:33 AM 648 Views

She's right about one thing: Dark Knight - 29/07/2010 09:37:38 PM 1337 Views

For some men its not so long...that sounded dirty didn't it? Dark Knight - 30/07/2010 12:37:28 AM 1272 Views
I think that's a lie designed to make men who do cheat in their minds feel better about it. Rebekah - 30/07/2010 12:41:48 AM 1466 Views
Are you talking about gay and asexual men? Tim - 30/07/2010 12:44:44 AM 1236 Views

You don't think that a woman can have a completely honest conversation with a man? Rebekah - 30/07/2010 08:49:21 AM 1333 Views
It's a stereotype based on pretty solid biological evidence, though. Ghavrel - 30/07/2010 09:10:30 AM 1275 Views
No offense, but that post is rather useless as long as you don't define "sexual thoughts". Legolas - 30/07/2010 09:54:37 AM 1534 Views
True. Ghavrel - 31/07/2010 08:20:28 AM 1217 Views
