To think most men would cheat if they knew they’d never be caught?

It’s not about love - it’s about opportunity, ego, and lack of consequences. “Good men” are often just men who haven’t had the chance (yet). Loyalty when untested isn’t real loyalty.

Yes the ones with money tend to look good, whereas women generally make more effort whatever they earn.

I don’t believe that , the ones with money tend to look good , it’s all down to the person if they want to stay in shape.
Eating Healthy is not expensive, & neither is the gym , & if you do both of those , then it’s a fact , you’re going to look good ….You will have good skin, hair & nails & a fit , healthy , toned body ..
That does not cost money ….

Although the men with money probably do look better on the whole, they have the money to spend on fancy products, good clothes, once they've made their money they have plenty time to hit the gym, attend spas, pursue active hobbies, relax and enjoy good living!

The thing is, most men don't feel the need to maintain themselves in the way that many women do. Partly because of the myth that men - and only men - 'age like a fine wine', which of course we all know to be the opposite of the truth.

I dont know on this one. I see plenty of couples were both the husband and wife have "let themselves go" and I also see plenty fit active couples who keep in good shape together. Same with single people. I think it's quite equal. Also I think society's view on what men should do to look good has been more restricted than for women. Its only fairly recently that its becoming more accepted when men spend a lot of time and money on their appearance. Even just wearing jewellery is something that we accept on women but the choices are more limited for what we expect men to wear.
