Angry sexless guy, please STOP ruining every thread with your complete bs. You say things like they are fact with no basis for them. Plenty of men/women cheat even when they are still sleeping with their spouse - many of them have admitted that on this forum. Please just step away from your keyboard and find something else to do. All you do here is piss people off.

+1 This idea that women should be sexually available every second of the day, regardless of their physical or emotional health, to the point of essentially allowing marital rape to avoid their partner cheating, is gross and I wish the Gods of DCUM would just ban this troll either from the site or this forum.

Nice try, strawman. The mental gymnastics to go from what I said (SOMETHING on a regular basis) to what you said (sexually available every second of the day) is that what qualifies you to name trolls and ban people? I actually answered OP's question, you did not even try. Instead you start screaming "rape" out of nowhere like a lunatic <---- Ban her!

My therapist said it was very common for 2nd pregnancies because they think they have you trapped.

Many do this OP because many women don't want sex during pregnancy, whether it's hormonal, sick/tired, etc... So, the men look elsewhere. They cannot not have sex for a while six to nine months. That would be unthinkable for them. It's pure selfishness.

I agree with everything above... EXCEPT for that last statement.
Men need sex! It's not a matter of selfishness at all. In fact, it's selfish to offer nothing at all (for many months at a time) AND expect a man to remain sexually faithful.

You say this as if male sexuality can be reduced to the need for regular draining, doesn't matter by whom or where or how.

But, it isn't. Because the cheater is just cheating without a thought for you at all. It isn't worse that he cheated the same week as your birthday when you were pregnant for little Larlo. It isn't. It doesn't matter that your cheater cheated in your anniversary month. It isn't of any significance that your cheater took time between Christmas and New Year's to see his girlfriend, and didn't spend that time with your family. Because none of it actually had anything to do with you, the cheated upon. It has everything to do with the selfishness of the cheater.

I think you are the poster who religiously preaches the need to declare sexless marriages open.

Anyway, while I agree that there are many men who cheat because they are sexually starved, and said men would be faithful if they had a sexually fulfilling marriage, you are deluding yourself if you think only 1% of men who cheat are the sexually fulfilled ones. Men also cheat for the thrill, variety, and all the reasons that cheating is fun regardless of moral consequences. I wonder if you have ever been immersed in the business world of attractive men who travel for work. Most of them cheat and it's statistically impossible all of them are in sexless marriages.

If you want to quibble over my number (1% versus like 4% or even 5%) that's inconsequential. The fact is VAST majority of married men who cheat are in that "sexually starved" group just as you acknowledged, so I think we are generally in agreement. Surely you were not claiming men who don't normally travel or cheat, start traveling and cheating now that the wife is pregnant? So again, we agree that "sexually starved" must be the correct answer to OP's subject question.

There is no "fact", there's just your thinking. I don't think it's even possible to know what the facts are.

You said something earlier about unmet sexual needs. It may very well be true just as it may very well be true that these sexual needs simply cannot be met at home, or by any one woman. There are men who need sexual variety to feel sexually fulfilled; no matter how simpatico the wife is, she can only be herself, and thus a man who desires different women cannot be fulfilled by one. Boredom is another reason; all bodies become too familiar and boring over time. A longtime spouse, no matter how willing, cannot replace the thrill of novelty. What if a man's sexual needs include novelty? You're out of luck then. Others still cannot cope with the reality of aging - can a 50-something wife, no matter how willing, replace physical perfection of 20-year olds? What if physical attraction is simply no longer there? The wife is willing but to a husband she is no more desirable than a tree? And then there are men who desire certain things sexually that they do not wish to be performed by their wife, the mother of their children, too good to do dirty things. Things happen, life is long. Don't be so black and white.
