Didn’t clicked the video yet, but considering it is TED I can guess the narrative:

– If women cheat, there is a justification for it that bails them out.

– If men cheat, there is none, or masculinity is to blame, or patriarchy.

Did I get it right?

[Helen be DamnedParticipant 480]

No, she made it about the perceptions of infidelity, she very carefully avoided being gender biased. She did state that the perception is that males cheat from boredom and fear of intimacy and that women cheat from neglect and a desire for intimacy, but the way she spoke was that these were not the real reasons.

“Men cheat out of boredom and fear on intimacy but women cheat out of loneness and hunger for intimacy…”

Called it. Men’s motives are always shallow and selfish, and women’s motives are noble and selfless.

“In an affair the end of a relationship?”

Should be.

“Monogamy has nothing to do with love”

Really now? It is easy for women to say that, since they are the ones f~~~ing around all the time and are unable to be satisfied with only one partner.

Besides, one have only to look at the many articles that boast about open relationships, just for the current relationship be dissolved…

“Men rely on women fidelity in order to know who children these are and who gets the cows when I die.”

Utter and total disregard for what a men feels. No mention to the emotions of empathy and support a man might expect from a partner. Men are these simple creatures with no emotional depth, that only partners with women because of physical intimacy. Is almost like we were not human, isn’t it?

“The definition of infidelity keeps on expanding…” for WOMEN, men’s definition of infidelity seems to be a constant to me.

“On top of it, we are walking contradictions, so 95 % of us will say it is a terrible wrong our partner to lie about having an affair, but just the same amount of us will say that’s exactly what we would do if we would have an affair.”

I hope that by “us” she is referring to WOMEN ONLY. She already demonstrated she has NO IDEA how a man thinks…

And the madness goes on…

The way all guys here look at it, myself included, hell yes.

After seeing your perspective, I rescind some of my comment, but she is a woman, there is a limit on how truly unbiased she can be. However, she said “Why do we think men cheat for this and women for that,” it wasn’t an accusation, and it seemed to me that it wasn’t intended to be specifically.

Just watched the whole thing.

Holly… What a load of crap!

This woman almost glorify affairs. She speaks from the female perspective, always finding reasons to justify it, while acknowledging (to a minimal degree) its bad consequences. And then there is the “self-discovery” argument, so common on open relationships advocates. Why is that for women, they can’t “discover” themselves WITHOUT f~~~ing around, like, literally? Didn’t they know that exist things called… HOBBIES?

If anything, this is a red pill, and a strong one, on how WOMEN see relationships… and affairs.

Geez… The hamster wheel is strong on this one.

[SnakeSpectator 2080]

Women sleep around because they want to ride more dick. It isn’t any more complicated than that. The reason they lie about it is because smart whores realized if they lied to a man and acted like they were monogamous, they could extract more wealth from him.

What we have going on today is mostly reverse harems, where a woman maintains associations with men over a long period of time that benefit her. Some men she f~~~s a lot when she is available, some she stays more monogamous with, some are purely orbiters that never even get a sniff.

Yup. (I’m saying that a lot lately. It’s an impolite shorthand for I agree, but I am not articulate enough to explain why better than you did.)

[Helen be DamnedParticipant 480]

I agree, she does glorify it too much, I forgot to check my bulls~~~ filter which causes me to ignore the stupid s~~~. I virtually ignored all the fix the relationship bulls~~~.

Actually it is, but just a little bit. You see, the experiment in 1989 established the precedent that men, by nature, are not monogamous and are more likely to sleep with anything with a pulse (heck, even without it). Even the men on this forum believe that.

But there was a flaw in the ’89 experiment (hint: women didn’t give honest answers out of fear of slut shaming or sexual violence). You can read the laughable study here.

The truth is, men would never cheat as long as they’re getting enough, but when it comes to women, they’d cheat because they love having sex with strange men (not making  this up) and her husband is not “strange” anymore.

Another experiment at USC proves how the society’s expectations skews self reporting. “How many sexual partners do you anticipate over the course of your life?”
Women’s average answer: 2-3
Men’s average answer: 64
The pressure that caused women to under report was the same pressure that caused men to over report.

[RusskyParticipant 13503]

Any behavioral studies based on female input are invalid.
The only good studies would be based on actions, and not on what comes out their delusional mouths.

I only made it to 45 seconds and couldn’t watch any further. The notion that women cheat out of “hunger for intimacy” is a complete an utter bulls~~~ having no ground in objective reality.

proud carrier of the 'why?' chromosome

[Helen be DamnedParticipant 480]

Multiply the number of men a woman tells you she had sex with by 10. You will have a far closer number.

64 is such an unrealistic number for an average too, guys must have mostly just said “100” It still feels like they faked the statistic.

These quotes only go on to show how amoral these creatures are! They’ll justify their actions with whatever half ass explanations they can get produce by moving their lips, and never EVER accept responsibility. They are ALWAYS in the right.
– Men cheat out of fear of intimacy? Really? It’s only a stereotype that women are emotional while men are not when in fact it is the other way around.
– Is an affair end of relationship? YES, YES, and YES
– Monogamy has nothing to do with love? Now you’re just messing with me. How can you love a man, f~~~ another, and then bitch that how your man can’t have sex with you because he isn’t “in touch” with your feelings because sex is more than physical for you!
– NO, it’s not about cows. On my deathbed if I learnt that I raised a bastard child my whole life, I’ll slaughter the damn cow (for no reason, apparently), and you.
– Yes, of course. For women, it all about penetration. She’s definitely allowed to fool around or have oral. It’s only for men that even a hand job from a hooker is cheating.

Women don’t feel emotion (period) But they’ll use it as an excuse to withdraw from sex!
