I'll let you know after I do a market research, LOL... it certainly is a high demand product ;p

you will make a fortune because of my complex personality LOL!!

Sharrie, I'm going to have to disagree with you there. I don't think that a generalization can be made as to a woman being more inclined to see love and sex as mutually exclusive nor do I think that infidelity can be said to weigh more heavily on one gender or another. While certain cultures, because of gender bias and certain sociopolitical stigmas may treat women and men differently in those instances of infidelity, I think that the emotional response would be primarily the same though the expression may differ. It would also depend on the individual's own perspectives regarding intimate relationships. I also think that women often overlook men's innate sexual insecurities since men are less vocally expressive about their own vulnerabilities and anxieties than women, but again this is more due to sociological stigmas regarding what it means to be masculine.

I know that is generalization. Still, in terms of norm (as in percentages) as well as how much faster it is for men to bounce back into relationships, well, I do not think I'm too far off. There are always exceptions in both genders naturally. As for men's innate sexual insecurity, may be you can elaborate on that. That's the first time I heard someone talk about it! 

In some ways, I think men act like they bounce more easily but I've known a lot more men who took a long time getting over their spouse's infidelity. I tend to agree with Orlok and then again, I know in certain countries, you are indeed correct.

Well, I can think of a number of examples that I've observed in people time and time again.

One that springs to mind is that if a man is insecure because of repressed homosexuality or bisexuality, they tend to display more sexually aggressive behavior in an attempt to seem masculine or powerful. This same person might take on numerous partners or boast of their activities in the hopes of appearing virile and confident.

Another example would be the man who can't fulfill the sexual needs of his wife or in some way feels emasculated within his domestic environment. He might choose to engage in an extramarital affair in order to feel that he has more control over his existence than he actually does.

All of these things spring from a desire to appear strong to the outside world and to feel powerful or in control, but they're usually nothing more than the symptoms of a person with sexual insecurities and inability to express them through mutual communication. A good indication of this is to see how men and women respond, at least outwardly, to being cheated upon.

In my experience, most of my friends who have been cheated on either had a rebound boyfriend that they fell back on, went into a state of depression for a couple of weeks, or became very angry and perhaps retaliated in some way (one friend I had damaged her unfaithful boyfriend's car). However, for men, the responses are different and usually result in extreme anger and denial of the infidelity, again a rebound relationship, or severe sulking and moodiness.

The big difference is that women who have been cheated on have a sort of communal relationship with other women who they can talk to and vent their feelings and receive moral support, whereas most men feel that they can't talk about it with their male friends because they worry about being perceived as weak or inadequate. Neither women nor men are genetically predisposed to behave in either way, but are conditioned by societal attitudes and behaviors which have developed over many centuries.

Note how when men have multiple sexual partners they are seen as a "stud" while if women have multiple sexual partners they are often derogatorily referred to as a "slut" or a "whore". These double standards regarding promiscuous activity often favor men though on the other hand when men are the ones being cheated on they are at more of a social disadvantage because socially men are seen as being the aggressor and not the victim. The emotional affect of being cheated on for men is probably not dissimilar to women and result in the same emotional responses as being sexually victimized: distrust, guilt, mood swings, insecurity, and often either sexual repression or excessive sexual behavior. While being sexually abused or exploited is a more direct assault on a person emotionally, and especially physically it's far more traumatic, it still renders the same emotional response though to a lesser extent.

Orlok took the words out of my mouth ;)

Sorry for the late reply, Sean! I was out of town and out of touch with the computer ;-) I see what you mean insofar as emotional involvement is affecting behaviors. What I had meant though is that when men are unfaithful, they do not see it as that as they simply see the "straying" as a sexual encounter and the basis is not emotional involvement (or at least that's what men been saying a great many times). Hence, they do not plan on leaving either. For women though, many a time when sexual involvement is reached (although i can't say for everyone, naturally), emotional involvement is implicated. In that sense, when women choose to leave, that betrayal is complete.

The other perspective is that men see relationships as only 10% or slightly more of their lives while women see it as 80-100%. Hence, when a woman gets hit, it's total "destruction". When it happens to a man, life goes on. His career usually comes first.
