Unfortunately, many wives these days are disgustingly overweight and have a terrible attitude.

Is it any wonder their husbands shun them?

I don't want to take anyone to task here, but I want to make certain I understand some of the sentiments that are being expressed.

We aren't actually saying that men succumb to sexual perversion because their wives are fat are we? I present for your consideration the case of one Tiger "Idiot" Woods.

Pornography is just as much a perversion of the proper use of sex as any other sexual sin and suggesting that since men are allegedly more visually stimulated it's somehow a corollary of the "no fat chicks" rule is not acceptable. We're still doing this after all this time: "And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat." Blaming our women for our own faults. In the sanitized words of Richard Pryor "How long, O Lord! How long will this 'nonsense' go on?" Marriage isn't the cohabitation of two people, marriage is the union of two halves of a whole. That's why homosexuals can't do it at all and the rest of us can't do it serially.

If your definition of marriage stops at cohabitation for mutual benefit then ok, good luck with your civilization collapsing around your ears.

There can be no such thing as "pornography use", there is only "pornography abuse". It's not like alcohol, or food, or television, or computer games or anything else that can either be used or abused. Therefore there is nothing that justifies or mitigates its abuse.

"I'm hungry" ok eat.
"I'm tired" ok sleep.
"I'm bored" ok play.
"I'm thirsty" ok drink.
"My wife is a land whale"... ok Lesbian Spank Inferno?

Jill: How could you possibly enjoy a film like that?

Steve: Because it's got naked women in it. Look, I like naked women. I'm a bloke. I'm supposed to like them. We're born like that. We like naked women as soon as we're pulled out of one. Halfway down the birth canal we're already enjoying the view. Look, it is the four pillars of the male heterosexual psyche. We like naked women, stockings, lesbians, and Sean Connery best as James Bond. Because that is what being a boy is. And if you don't like it darling, join a film collective. Look, I want to spend the rest of my life with the woman at the end of that table there. But that does not stop me wanting to see several thousand more naked bottoms before I die. Because that's what being a bloke is. When man invented fire, he didn't say, "Hey, let's cook." He said, "Great! Now we can see naked bottoms in the dark. As soon as Gutenberg invented the printing press, we were using it to make pictures of, hey, naked bottoms. We've turned the Internet into an enormous international database of naked bottoms. So, you see, the story of male achievement through the ages, feeble though it may have been, has been the story of our struggle to get a better look at your bottoms. Frankly, girls, I'm not sure how insulted you really ought to be.
That may be hilarious social commentary... come to think of it, it might even be true, but it's fundamentally wrong.

It is true. Men are hardwired for polygamy (produce as many offspring as possible) and women are hardwired for hypergamy (produce the most fit offspring possible). Let people follow their base instincts and you'll wind up with a miserable, primitive, unstable society. And a crapload of starving babies.

(Hey, sounds a lot like our urban centers these days, doesn't it.)

This is precisely why it is so important to have a civilization rooted in Judeo-Christian values which encourage traditional marriage, faithfulness, and obedience to one's husband.

People do things for different reasons so it's hard to generalize. There's an enormous difference between a steamy affair with an attractive cocktail waitress, and sitting all alone in front of your computer staring at pictures. It is reasonable to expect that men who have normal, functioning, non-repulsive partners use pornography at a relatively low rate.

It is extremely common for wealthy and powerful men to take advantage of the opportunities afforded to them. Temptation haunts them every second of the day, and all they have to do is say "yes" and it's theirs.

We know that Tiger's wife is cute. We have no way of knowing how often she was "interested" post wedding and post baby.

The hilarious social commentary is only true for men who have the morals of a billygoat.

All humans have choices. Wrong choices lead to more wrong choices and make it harder to choose the right path. But change is certainly never impossible.
