A changing attitude towards adultery
Adultery: how to recognise an unfaithful man
Adultery: how to recognise an unfaithful man
A few years ago, to help you recognise an unfaithful man, we would have talked about suspicious behaviour or questionable attitudes.
Nowadays, this issue seems more complex, especially as moral judgements on adultery have changed.
With the emancipation of women, the availability of contraception, and an increase in the number of divorces, we've seen changes to the framework of the male/female relationship, and hence changes in attitudes to adultery.
So although in the past, unfaithful men seemed ashamed and guilty and lied to their partner to get what they wanted, some men no longer do so, instead claiming that their behaviour is a lifestyle choice.
And of course that's before we've even talked about how technology is the adulterers best friend... or worst enemy.
