Question

I got this question from a friend, would love to hear all your answers. Would post mine soon once I get my thoughts, spelling and grammer sort out.


In a space of about a month, two friends of mine who have been in long-term relationships had their boyfriends cheating on them. One of them tried his luck to limit the damage with the cliche that men are predisposed to sow their seeds with multiple partners. That got me thinking. While the prevalence of infidelity is quite self-evident wherever we may scrutinize, the question is: How many of you boyfriends/spouses out there GENUINELY feel that that argument is justified if confronted by the misdeed. I use the word ‘misdeed’ as adultery is not acceptable in Singapore’s matrimonial laws, which is a strong basis for divorce and of course alimony, which is a powerful poverty-inducing agent.
I would like to stress that my intention is to approach this question from an AMORAL perspective so let’s not be judgemental here. Do share your views about this but please do not limit your participation based on real experiences. Your thoughts, please !
