More from the cultural desert of academia

A sociologist in England has come up with this
(M)onogamy has ostracised men from doing what they most want to do.

He writes in his new book The Monogamy Gap: Men, Love, and the Reality of Cheating, that cheating is the norm, not the exception to it, and it’s high time that people start embracing ‘sexually open relationships that coexist without hierarchy or hegemony.’
He's done a study
In the study, Mr Anderson surveyed 120 undergraduate men – both gay and straight. He found that 78 per cent of those with partners cheated, ‘even though they said that they loved and intended to stay with their partner.’
In this world there are lots of things I'd like to do - it doesn't make them right.

And if everybody did what they wanted to do whenever they wanted to do it - well our civil society wouldn't last very long, now would it?(1)

People who do what they like regardless of the effect on other people are called er what's the word?

Psychopaths, that's it, psychopaths.

(1) There is a profound reason why adultery is a serious business and one of the ten commandments is a proscription on doing it.

It's all about paternity and ensuring the father of a child takes responsibility for it and doesn't hand it on to someone else.

Mind you our enlightened moderns think sex is entirely about making your genitals feel good anyway you choose and reproduction of the species is for other people to do.

Except for some idolent rich who fancy a child are more than happy to pay somebody else to carry it for them.
