The secret lives of married men: The trouble with sex and marriage

This is a thought-provoking article which I rather enjoyed.

"When I told one married friend about my torment, he cut me off. "Everyone in our situation has had one or two episodes. Straying, wandering eye, a blowup. If you have a pulse."

When I decided to write about it, the novelist Frederic Tuten offered a warning about the sanctity in which Americans hold monogamy in marriage. "You can go against it in life, but don?t speak against it. It makes you a monster. Who speaks against it? And this creates a dichotomy, between what we live and what we profess."

Hehe, it is interesting how lots of the readers' comments just verbally abuse the man who wrote the article.

It is a rather fun article I think and a bit teasing, and from the ending, ("No thanks!") I think he is really just playing with ideas and trying to understand the human condition a little more deeply.

It is interesting though! And the Kinsey Institute sounds like a fun place to work!
