Married men cheating - 70% plus do? how 'bout you?

[Cindy99]

i could be wrong, but i'm almost sure the Ivy League is...

Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Yale, Cornell, Colgate?, Dartmouth, etc.,

Stanford is in a "conference" with schools like Az State, USC, UCLA, Washington and Wash St, Arizona, Cal, etc.,

Notre Dame is its own place, they are better than everyone else at most things...

Regardless, location wise I'd rather be at stanford than south bend indiana.

that's 4 sure - Palo Alto is a beautiful place. and their MBA school is really top notch, it was quite the rage when the dot.com's were hiring all their graduates at great salaries and even though that's all down the toilet now, its still a great school with a very low % accepted rate (much like Notre Dame for undergrads)

<sigh> I would have killed to go to either one of those schools. but I was a dumb ass in high school so lets just say my choice of schools was rather limited. oh well.

Fuck that, I can't even vote. I have never cheated on a girlfriend, and never would. I have had many opportunities to, but like I said, I would never do it.

I'll take the University of Texas at Austin (my alma mater) over both of those schools for academic reputation AND location.

As for any of the aforementioned polls, how can any of them be considered valid, when the very premise of cheating assumes that many of those answering the polls are dishonest to begin with?

Cindy, I disagree with your reverse Bell theory. Men gain power and prestige and probably start getting opportunities to cheat as they approach middle age, and then it drops off again as they get older, like a traditional Bell curve. As for women, it is definitely a declining slope and is inversely proportional to age, because as we all know, men age much more gracefully than women do, and if you're going to risk your marriage and career, it will be with a hot young thing.

ttlpkg - i agree with you on the bell curve thing. i was thinking of the propensity to stay faithful (lower in mid-life) and you were thinking the propensity to cheat (lower at tail ends). sorry if i was confusing, you're right.

as for UT vs. ND or Stanford, I know people from all 3 and like Stanford's weather, UT's high school football recruiting class this year (what a D-Line haul that coach whats-his-name had, if he can't win the NC with Larry Dibbles, et al you should run him outta town) but overall I can't be convinced that Notre Dame isn't the best place in the world to spend your undergraduate years, and I didn't go to any of those 3 places for undergrad!!! anyway, just my dos centavos...

Wow, you are a financial wiz and you know sports too? I don't know what you look like, but if you are at least average you make quite a package.

Notre Dame is one of the last independents, but it has lost much of it's luster in sports lately, the pressure is on for them to join a conference like Penn State and others did. Ironically, their new football coach Tyrone Willingham just moved over from Stanford.

Back to the poll, I think Bill Clinton is a good example of why many men cheat. Here he was, arguably the world's most powerful man, and he was going home to Hillary every night. It just ain't right! When a Monica Lewinsky comes along and throws herself at you, it is difficult to resist.

I personally think the man had a problem controlling his sexual urges. He's cheated on his wife with many women throughout their marriage. He's a sexaholic.

I'm not defending the guy, but if I was married to Hillary, I'd probably cheat too. I think he married Hillary for reasons other than love, or has stayed married for reasons other than love. Same on her end, she should have dumped him a long time ago.
