  1. You don’t have to apologize for making generalizations. I think that’s a failure mode which is pretty common among people with integrity. Generalizations are only bad if you pretend they aren’t (or if they are just false and intentionally misleading). Otherwise, just state what you are doing. If it’s clear what you’re doing then there’s nothing wrong with making speculative generalizations. Not even if you happen to be wrong. You’re allowed to be wrong.

  2. I never cheated, but Anna’s analysis is spot on as usual. I think that Kim and Brett’s view is a little too idealistic.

  3. Man.. these Classics video’s are reminding me that TYT used to be fun and entertaining. What is this sad future we are living in.

  5. You don’t often get caught cheating unless you’re an idiot. I’ve been cheated on, I was at one time a serial cheater. Both suck, for different reasons for both parties no matter who is cheating. Testosterone is a maddening drug, The way we work cheating is almost inevitable. Almost.

    Now we want equal rights for women, women can admit to loving sex, its a more developed and rational (from a societal stand point) way to function; but we get caught up in the age old stereotypes. But girls can cheat purely for animal reasons and guys can cheat for (almost) purely emotional ones, been there on both ends of the cheating equation, you CAN get past it too, but you never really trust that person the same way as you did. Both men and women can get emotionally scarred as easily as physically.

    The point being, we men cheat for emotional reasons far, FAR more often than a woman might guess. Its about as often, I would guess, as women cheat for physical ones.

    Ladies and gentlemen we are animals, emotional animals.

  7. Ana’s definitely onto something at the end, but I would phrase it this way: we LOVE to fall in love. Sure, we like being in love, but FALLING in love is a powerful thing hard to replicate over a long period of time.

    If we’re not in a position to fall in love ourselves, we love watching OTHER people fall in love. What’s one of the most common stories you see or hear about in movies, music, or literature? Falling in love!

  8. After many partners: one-nighters and longer, two marriages and
    a couple unmarried long-term relationships, I have only ONE
    positive thing to say about monogamy [serial and otherwise]:
    Monogamy is so much less complicated.

    If you get off on the anxiety and the causing of pain that goes w/ cheating,
    I won’t begin to try to convince you. But, please, lose my number.

  9. Sounds to me like Ana is coming around to non-monogamy. She will need to get over her “cut a bitch” instinct though when her husband goes out with someone else.

  10. The video they featured made me miss how much more honest Cenk and Ana used to be before they started being scared to death of offending the overly PC crowd

  11. I’ve been cheated on and I’ve cheated. Both involve lying. The cheated on person feels betrayed and it’s painful. From personal experience, if a man cheats again and again, knowing it’s hurting the relationship, it means he doesn’t give a damn about damaging the relationship. That’s the time to end things.
    When I cheated, the guilt made it almost not worth it. I guess I thought if he found out, he would be as understanding and forgiving as I had been when he cheated. Nope, different rules. I was dumped as soon as he found out. I pointed out that he had cheated first and many, many times. He yelled at me, “It didn’t mean anything when I did it, but you loved him”, meaning my lover. Implying that my cheating was worse than his.
    Moral: don’t cheat. And if you chose to, think about what will happen when you get caught. Because you will.

    1. Gwenroberts, that dude doesn’t get to use the “your cheating was worse” line on you when he had already cheated “many, many times.” That automatically makes his as bad or worse than yours. He’s a moron and a hypocrite. Just sayin’.

    2. sounds like he was a typical covert narcissist. I have known a few guys like that unfortunately.
