[quote=Anonymous]I'm a man, and I've also been married twice.  My answer is "no".  A ring or wedding license or some words said at a ceremony are not what makes for fidelity, or a marriage for that matter.  That kind of thinking - that appeal to external authority - is - at best - juvenile.

Some people never get very much past age 12 in terms of emotional maturity their entire lives They tend to be the fearful ones, subservient to authority and craving an external power structure: rigid religiosity, love for authoritarian governance - LE, military, and big on punishment as a motivator.

These are the fools who imagine that having a piece of paper or swearing an oath before $deity will "make" someone be "true" and "love" them.

Fidelity is something you choose to do every day because you choose to do it - the power and responsibility rest entirely [i]within[/i] the individual - not some external power or pressure.

Also: there is jack-all that is "new" or "special" or particularly degenerate about human sexuality and relationships today in 2014.  If you believe that your great grandparents generation were any less nasty, any less adulterous, any less kinky, any less gay, then you're seriously deluding yourself.  None of us likes to imagine our parents as sexual beings, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.  A shit-ton of infidelity has gone on since the dawn of time, women and men.  [/quote]
