Today is a bad day for men. Today, women are mad at men for some improper transgressions a famous man committed behind his wife’s back. Today, I’m hearing all sorts of bad things about men from women. But today, I have learned a valuable lesson: Women don’t cheat enough. Don’t tell me they do and men just don’t know about it because women better at keeping it under wraps. Women don’t cheat enough and they need to start doing more of it, maybe this way we can actually start getting into some honest discussions about, you know, things like honesty, faithfulness. How are men supposed to have a conversation with women when they’re stuck up on their high horses? Come down from there, get in the dirt, and play with the big boys.

Now I believe it is messed up when men cheat on their wives, their girlfriends, their whatever she is. I believe it’s wrong for a man to partake in certain types of “transgressions”. I believe it’s a horrible thing to do, to cheat. But I don’t believe things will change anytime soon and therefore, some women need to just get with the program and get their Connie Summer on. In my post about Tiger Woods and Cheating I said cheating “sometimes, it’s a woman thing, although, men hate to hear that sort of thing.” Well, I hate to hear women complaining about how wrong men are all because, for better or for worse, a man stepped out on his woman. Will someone please sing me a new song? This one I keep hearing about men doing what they shouldn’t be doing is getting old and tired and instead of waiting for men to sing a different one, women should just remix it. Flip the script.

To the women who have already started singing the song, bravo, but a little louder please? Let’s just throw away the idea of a fairer sex, because there is no fairer sex. The best we can do is treat each other fairly, and ladies, if that means seeing more than one guy at the same time, so be it. I have completely resigned myself to the possibility that once in my life a woman might cheat on me for whatever reason. Maybe I will have deserved it. Maybe it’s already happened. Who knows? What I do know is if it does happen to me or it already did and I hear about it much later, I’d be able to handle it. And that is not to say I would know what to do, it’s just to say I know what I wouldn’t do, and that’s go completely crazy, which is more than I can say for a lot of other men.

No man ever wants to come to grips with the idea of a woman cheating on them, doesn’t even want to imagine such a thing. Unfortunately most men (not all, as I may have implied in the post I wrote earlier this week) don’t treat a woman the way they would want their woman to treat them. Most men interact with some women who is not theirs in a way the woman who is theirs would frown upon and there is nothing we could do about it. I know cheating is dead wrong. There’s no ifs ands or buts about it, no right way to spin it. But any woman who wants to get all up in arms over every act of infidelity they hear or read about should just go ahead and join the cheaters party too. Get it in and often. If for no other reason but to see why men do it. Then tell a few people about it, send out some text messages, and come back to the fidelity conversation. Us men will be waiting.
