St8up it just seems like you are saying no woman can control how she expresses her mating drive. I believe they can and some do. You seem to be saying none of them can nor do
Not at all. The question isn't about whether or not some or most women can suppress natural impulses. Not everyone DOES cheat, but a good many do, and it is important to remember that any woman who is at least moderately attractive is CAPABLE of cheating.
We agree on a lot things but not completely. I agree that woman don't operate by the same honor code that men do, but a big part of that is because men don't hold women to the same standards! Just because modern society allows "women to be women" doesn't mean that's the natural order of how women are or should be.
A good majority of the behavior we see today is a result of more opportunity. Women are engaging in more questionable behavior today due to technology and shifting culture. If anything, men are guilty of not yet picking up on how to deal with these changes more than anything.
In the past, lack of opportunity kept many women in check, but rest assured....they have ALWAYS been cunning and manipulative.
Also why assume because this women cheated with a Biker dude, that it was in any way a sign that the rich guy wasn't "Alpha" enough or "DJ" enough. The woman would probably cheated on any man in existance. But that doesn't mean that every woman would behave like she did.
A woman will generally only cheat on a man when he lets his alpha guard down. If he maintains the frame and maintains high value, the chances of getting cheated on are very low. If a woman is getting all of her needs met at home (resources AND alpha seed) she will have no need to stray. Doesn't happen this way often, but I don't believe that a lot of women who cheat would cheat on "anyone".
I don't know what else to say. If law and order broke down tomorrow, some people would act much worse than others. And some would even do things helpful. The same concept applies to women and the mating game IMO.
No doubt. But all you have to do is read the stats and have a good look around you. At best, women aren't the delicate, innocent flowers we are lead to believe they are. At worst, they can be ruthless mercenaries capable of all sorts of detestable behavior.
As much as I hate to say it men have a lot of responsibility for how women are. A lot of this women going for a BBD is because men are intentionally trying to provided the BBD to women who already have a significant other. Then when it happens to them they blame it all on women.
So men who try to steal "taken" women are responsible for women's lack of morality?
I very much disagree. Any time I have had sex with a woman who is "taken", she was the initiator. Much more forward than most single women.

If I am with my girlfriend and I see am around a gorgeous, simpatic woman, OF COURSE I am going to be attracted to her. No question about. But I dont become irrational, uncapable of controlling my behaviour because of it. You are basicly saying that she is irracional and cant control herself being around you, due to her "attraction".
You are not a woman. Men are much better at controlling emotions.
You probably don't believe in soul mates and "fate" and "destiny" like a chick does.
Does this make it "right" for her to be unable to recognize the fact that she was disrespecting her man? Of course not, but if life were "fair", 20% of men wouldn't be getting 80% of the pu$$y. It's just how things are dude.
Women do cheat for pleasure, not for any "genetic advantage"
That's like saying "I watch football because I enjoy it, not because it gets my adrenaline flowing in much the same way tribal warfare or hunting big game would".
It "feels good" for a reason dude. It ensures the survival of our species. Doesn't take a room full of phD's to decipher that one.

Yeah, true, but it is more personally convenient for some men here to blame nature.
Which came first- the urge to fukk, or the societal constructs that temper these urges?
Ignoring evolutionary biology and psychology to explain it away as "seeking pleasure" is the convenient explanation.
Got news for you folks- societal customs come and go and change with the wind. In the grand scheme of things nature laughs in the face of your silly man made "rules".

Women behave the way they do simply because the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. If beautiful (or at least f-ckable) women were plentiful and/or outnumbered men, we would probably be less willing to commit to any one woman.
We cling to women because of the work involved in getting what we want out of them. They are simply exploiting the demand as compared to the lower supply (with the help of feminists and the government of course).
Heresy! There are no biological influences at work! Supply? Demand? Women behave the way they do because they WANT to! Nothing more, nothing less!

Is quite the opposite, we all are looking for pleasure. Its complicated to discuss why and what, considering even scientific research is contraditory in many aspects, but the pleasure is the goal, the whys and whats are not important.
You are sounding more and more like a woman with each post.
The "why's" and "what's" are of utmost importance if you truly want to educate yourself on the subject. Somehow I don't think you do.

We've determined that attraction isn't a choice, but cheating, obviously, is.
The
desire to cheat (based upon attraction) is often not a conscious choice. The decision NOT to cheat is the actual choice. It is a natural desire that is socially repressed.
Was the female in question aware of her behavior? Did she either find her new subject so attractive, or have so little respect for her boyfriend, or both, that the benefits of flirting outweighed the potential consequences?
Like I said, I think it was both the fact that we "clicked" and the fact that he is low value to her. This led to the engaging conversation with me, and from where I was standing I don't think she gave a passing thought to what the b/f was thinking (until the end maybe, when I started to consciously distance myself).
I mean, I don't know the guy that well to know how much of a dud he actually is with women, but as soon as I mentioned the word "Amsterdam" she was entranced in our convo. Come to find out that the b/f had been to Amsterdam as well, but she didn't know that until he chimed in after hearing my passionate tales of travels far and wide....
I have a hard time believing that at no point during the night, this woman didn't think for one moment that a) I might be pouring it on too thick with Str8Up, and b) I've been neglecting my boyfriend. If those thoughts didn't cross her mind at all, she obviously has a morality defect. If they DID cross her mind, and she dismissed them, she is unscrupulous.
Like I said, from my POV she was utterly clueless for most of the night, but I don't think you could call it a "morality defect". Bad social graces maybe, but not a morality defect.
If you're telling me that women are incapable of even having these kinds of introspective moments, then maybe they really ARE only good for a pump and dump.
Incapable? I don't think they are incapable. I do however think that they are much more likely to become swept up in emotion, making them prone to entering a state where they become less aware of their actions and less concerned about the consequences.
