Could Ashley Madison, a site for married people who want to have affairs, be good for women?
Living out in the sticks of Western Massachusetts as I do, there are only about 40 women on the dating site I'm browsing who meet my criteria. They all live within 20 miles of me, and range in age from 24 to 60. All are married or attached, and looking for something other than what they have at home. Few have photos available, for obvious reasons. Online Dating In 8 Simple Steps

Steve Philips heads off to rehab following his workplace affair—is he a cheater or a sex addict?
David Duchovny first broke it to the mainstream media, Bryan Jenkins, the reality TV show contestant who allegedly murdered his wife, was rumored to have suffered from it, and now, ex-ESPN analyst Steve Philips is seeking rehab for it after a sordid affair with a young production assistant. We're talking about sex addiction and the gossip media is all abuzz about this newfangled condition since these three recent, high-profile cases.
PsychCentral.com defines sex addiction as, "a progressive intimacy disorder characterized by compulsive sexual thoughts and acts." Obviously, this is frustratingly vague—what's to keep any serial cheater … Read More

Dave Letterman's workplace affairs lead to debate about gender equality in work and love.
The David Letterman affairs-with-female-colleagues scandal has brought the nature of workplace relationships—specifically those with older, male bosses—into the spotlight. And with it, the debate about gender equality, both at work and in relationships.
"Young women in the work force have it rough both ways," writes Michelle Haimoff, who covers the progress of gender equality and "First World feminism" on her blog, genfem.com. "Female higher-ups tend to be so fiercely protective of their place on the totem pole that they refuse to help younger women succeed, and male higher-ups tend to only be interested in helping female underlings if some kind … Read More
Nightline attempts to show the many faces of infidelity, but really only reveals two.
Pastor Ed Young belives that if you want to have an affair, you certainly should... with your own spouse.
"Primarily, [sex is] for pleasure. Secondarily, it's for procreation. And when you have a man and a woman making love, then you're going to hit on all cylinders. And when you don't, when you step out of that relationship, the result is going to be chaos." Spiritual Sex: 10 Erotic Commandments

An interview with author Julie Metz about losing her husband then discovering his infidelity.
In 2003, after nearly 14 years of marriage, Julie Metz learned that her husband Henry had been cheating on her with multiple women. Shattering to any wife, news of his infidelity hit Metz particularly hard—Henry had passed away six months prior. The revelation of his rampant adultery—including a three-year affair with a close family friend—dealt Metz a second, equally wounding blow. In her memoir, Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal, Metz recounts the aftermath of this revelation and chronicles her path to self-renewal and rediscovery of both love and trust.
Along the way, she confronts her husband's Read More
