soon to be former mayor kilpatrick with mistress christine beatty, the patron saint of light-skinned points

i received this email a couple of weeks ago from ashley “the fireman” johnson (aka “hood bradley“), a friend of vsb.com

IS THERE A FAITHFUL POLITICIAN OUT THERE…ANYWHERE?

If we just go w/ the big scandals…we first heard about JFK and Marilyn, then Bill and Monica, most recently Elliot Spitzer and the Miami pro, now John Edwards.

(Oh, and lets not forget Thomas J. and Sally Hemmings — who started it ALL…)

What is it w/ these fellas and their inability to stay faithful. The power? The prestige? The young, fresh intern-quality @$$ just lying around D.C.?

And what is is about their wives, who be standing right next to ‘em at the “blow up ya’ spot press conference”?

Lastly…Barack. Will he fall victim too, if he assumes the throne? ‘Cause you can imagine that Michelle would box-cutter that playa.

ashley could have very easily substituted powerful/popular man for “politician” in the title, and the theme would have remained the same. as reluctant as i am to admit that any particular gender has the edge in the cheating sweepstakes, history has shown us that men with elevated social status seem to be more likely to sidestep faithfulness and monogamy more than anyone else.

from the theory that the type of competitive and borderline compulsive personalities that high achieving men typically possess usually extends to the way they view the opposite sex to the fact that this same hyper-assertion and aggression is an aphrodisiac for many women, there are myraid possible reasons for this dynamic…but maybe chris rock is right. maybe we’re truly only as faithful as our options.

as much as i love to get on my ivory tower and bray about the fundamental selfishness and weakness exhibited in habitual cheating, maybe every guy (including the champ), regardless of how moral they claim to be, has a “breaking point”, a p**sy point of no return. maybe the only thing separating me from kwame kilpatrick (other than the fact that i would have at least picked a chick who didn’t look like the mulatto version of bea arthur) is that i just haven’t reached mine…yet.

honestly, i’m stumped. people of vsb.com, how would you answer ashley’s questions?

Firstly, Kwame’s mistress looks like Cruella Deville from 101 Dalmatians. She got them SHARP features!!

And yes, Michelle would “cut a b*tch” if they touch Barack. Don’t let the classy fool you. (DOLPHINS STAND UP!! Michelle and I went to the same high school).

So the day after future President Obama delivered his acceptance speech I was talking to one of my girls and jokingly said “makes me want to intern at the white house just so I can have an affair” my girl got all quiet and said, “b*tch I will cut you” I was like Dayum!

I think the inability of men to stay faithful reveals who is the true “weaker” sex. I also think society grants men too many passes. And within the confines of Negronia, we celebrate the player culture so much that even wives and girlfriends have been heard complaining that “jump-offs need to know their role”. It’s like a given with us.

Not me.

I also think when you add power and money to the already permissive culture these men develop a God complex. They arent being sloppy they dont give a sh!t. They control so much and so many people fall at their feet that they start to feel above the rules and laws of society.

“who is the true “weaker” sex.”

If by weaker you refer to the inability to stay faithful whilst in the confinements of a relationship (for guys i.e. sex with added obligations such as listening, remembering B-days, pulling down the toilet seat, going down on her, calling her, asking her what’s wrong when she seems to be crieng etc.)….i don’t think we can argue with tthat, aren’t you a genius.

what defines weakness differs from person to person and can be attributed to both sides of the argument. Is the man weak for giving in to who knows how much pu$$ being tossed his way..,is his wife weak for standing with him…is the mistress weak for even being a mistress…there is weakness from every angle if you wanna take that road.

that’s the real-est sh1t eer typed right there! when the betrayed wife stands by her man, is she weak for not being strong enough to leave? or if she leaves, is she being weak for not being strong enough to stay? The JO is weak for falling for the okee doke that led her to bed someone else’s man? or is she strong for recognizing that if she could take him, he never belonged to anyone?
With the exception of the dishonesty involved (which we are all agreed is some weak punk type sh1t) the entire premise of cheating is a gray area when it comes to who is preying on whom…deep sh1t!

Because no one makes blanket statements on blogs, right?

Champ- not ALL men, but the broke AND the powerful infidels! Yes.

Yes there is a lot of weakness played out in affairs, but the brunt of it falls on the shoulders of the one who strays. If you are a mom (or dad) with three kids and a morgage, are you really weak for staying or making a decision to protect your kids and your lifestyle.

Having grown up with a stayer? the answer to this is yes, you are weak for staying and the truth is its not about the mortgage or the kids its always purely selfish. I love my mom and dad to death but it took me a long time to get past the shyt my dad did to my mom. I remember the fights late at night, the women calling my dad’s phone, I really wish she would have left. She used to say all the time she did it for us? but really she did it for herself as do most women.

absolutely. there is no excuse for a lack of self respect…if anything you have more of a responsibility to leave when you have kids. i mean, what exactly are you trying to teach them?? what does a little girl learn from a mother that stays in an unhealthy situation with an unfaithful man? what does a little boy learn from that mother about how women are to be treated?

staying and making excuses is much easier (read: weaker) than having the courage to get up and go, kids and all, IMO

Shay D I can’t speak for your situation but you really have to consider the financial side of things. Check out this link about the financial effect of divorce on women http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/CollegeAndFamily/LoveAndMoney/GetRealMarriageIsABusiness.aspx. It’s really easy to say what your mom should have done and assume that everything would have worked out okay financially. But the numbers back up the fact the women who are divorced have a high rate of bankruptcy. Again I don’t know your situation but did your parents help pay for your colle, private school, summer programs, etc. that really benefited you in the long run. I don’t know if they did these things if it would outweigh the emotional stress but it is a major factor to consider.

I can tell you this.. I slept with a light on until I was 21 years old, even today if I am asleep and my husband is on the phone talking loudly it wakes me up instantly, I love my husband to death but it took me so long to trust him and I still struggle with being too strong and not allowing him to take the lead. A child dosent know bankruptcy, a child dosent know about bad credit. These things can be easily repaired but the emotional distress and turmoil of constant fighting, (physically and mentally) can not be. A lot of the mental scars I developed from growing up with this, will be with me for life.

24 shay-d-lady September 4, 2008 at 2:41 pm

I would also like to say I think many women dont understand what the true meaning of “strong enough to stay” means. Most marriages break up over financial difficulties, not infidelity. So a women will stay through that but when the money gets tight they leave. The vows state for richer or poorer, through sickness and health. Most men and women are not strong enough to stay through those types of tribulations. The minute the rent is late or someone is laid off and times get hard they bounce but if the money right and the bills paid they will stay and take the disrespect…..

First…Christine Beatty is not cute. I mean, she looks…old. Is she 60? If so, she’s aight. If she’s 40, she needs a deep chemical peel stat.

Secondly…I think it is hard for anyone who has tail tossed at them on the regular to say no. Not impossible. Just hard. And powerful people – politicians, music, movie and sports stars, Djs, bartenders and door guys/girls, get a lot of tail tossed at them.

I think powerful women cheat as much as powerful men do: Jackie O had rumored affairs. Eleanor Roosevelt had a rumored affair, a lesbian one, but an affair nonetheless. Men are just sometimes (often) dumb as hell and get caught. Prostitutes? IMing? Texting? Leaving a trail??? An intern with a big mouth???? Yeah…a woman would never slip like that.

Hillary Clinton’s rumored lover ended up dead, a victim of an apparent suicide. That’s how we do.

thats got nothing to do with it. You dont think men have the same intution that tells them when their girl is bangin someone else? A man just wont speak on it. He will just break up with the girl and say it didnt work out. Men bottle that stuff up and move on if they can. Its not often (in my experiece) that you see some dude whining about how his girl cheated on him. His friends will just tell him to man up and move on.

40 The Comeback Girl September 4, 2008 at 3:09 pm

“women are smarter about it.”

and they have “dyck” points of no return. I find that once a woman cheats that relationship has been over a real long time and just needed a more “ceremonious” ending.

women don’t like to end things generally. they wait until all the writing is on the wall, the next door neighbors wall, they done prayed to allah/buddah, traveled to tibet, fasted 29 days.

cheating is one thing a man (who doesn’t want you but doesn’t anyone else to have you either) can’t forgive. And for a man who won’t go, sometimes the cheat is a woman’s last option for the final exit.

I honestly dont know why men cheat but I have an idea of why women stay. A lot of women get caught up in the winning. What do they really have to win? thats not the point. The point is that some chick is trying to get in on the ninja whose papers you wrote in college, whose dirty draws you washed, the ninja that before you, was wearing flat front ankle beater dress pants and plaid shirts with ties. The ninja for whom you borrowed money from your mama and worked 2 jobs to support through college and while he was working that weak a$$ internship. Now you made it to the big leagues, getting your piece of the pie and some new chick wants to reap the benefits of your hard work (even though if you would have put that hard work into your own career you could have been happy and successful on your own). She has called the house, she pages him when she knows you are around etc. you have told her that she aint nothing but a side piece and you mighta had him once but I got him all the time so they stick around, through all the embarrassment and shame just to prove that he aint going nowhere and also they have brainwashed themselves into thinking that he-ll all men cheat so why trade in a trade show puppy for one of them joints from the bad news dog kennel…….

Kilpatrick’s wife is very attractive. At some point when you get over the cheating you do question his level of taste. If you gonna sneak, do it with someone hotter and badder, don’t just half @ss wit the shyt.

Other than that, i think if cheating was ever excusable at the political level-this kind of cheating might be it. Its never about the woman REALLY.

He certainly left her hanging, i mean you’re losing your job AND you have compromised your family’s legacy. SO WHY NOT KEEP HER @ss!!! it won’t happen. Why??? cause it wasn’t about her. It was about the chase. The science of cheating really explores the adrenal high that a man can’t get anywhere else.

His wife was more attractive, but clearly he found the other woman more interesting.

I have this theory that men date attractive women for the approval of others, but sometimes deep down inside they really like the not so cute chick who is clearly able to capture his “attention” too.

Naw every man wants an attractive woman who is witty and who can screw his brains out. And who can, preferably, whip him up a good meal. Doubt any guy thinks “let me find the not so cute chick who can keep my attention”. lol.

After said cute chick stops screwing him as frequently as she used to or stops cooking or her wit turns to nagging, he may look elsewhere. And that elsewhere may just be an average chick who rides him like her life depends on it and sends him home with a hot plate.

So true. Back in the day, a guy I dumped for another guy (afterwards, he spent the better part of a year acting like he didn’t know me, lol) was in a bar. Being intoxicated my friend dared me to go to him and say something ‘dirty’. I, also intoxicated, took the bate. hey…$10 was on the line…I couldn’t turn it down.

When I walked up, he looked at me like I had the plague. But when I said “I wanna see that big black stick (the cheesiest ish EVA)” he immediately said “when?”

Spent the rest of the night calling me. And I thought he’d deleted my number. lol. I did not answer, just for the record.

He also no longer looks in my direction.

And, lastly, last year a guy I was dating didn’t want to leave the sports bar we were at until the game was over. I was ready to go so I whispered in his ear that I wanted to blow him. He drug me outta that bad boy. ;)

I agree with what you said. I think cheating is about boosting that ego and kind of proving that you “still got it” or that you are invincible. Because if you assess most cheating cases, you will find the majority of the time they “mistress” is not more attractive than the wife/girlfriend. But they’re probably more of a freak though.

Comeback, V dot and whomever else, men cheating is not always about trying to get a replacement for what you already have, or about who looks the best and pretty aint shit if it aint pretty inside, fat a$$ turns to flab, big titties turn to pancakes.

…and yes women cheat with men who are not as physically attractive as their husbands and S.O’s. someone else said they didn’t earlier but thats just bullsh*t.

some astute lady commenter mentioned that the woman who is not as pretty as the wife may have that better more pliable submissive attitude and she probably rides him until the cows cum home. when ur in a formal relationship their are so many real and contrived dynamics and responsibilities that much of the desire and appeal can be lost. i’m not trying to make cheating sound good but it is what it is.

There is a lot that goes into cheating. And I wholeheartedly believe women are just as guilty as men on the cheating tip but don’t get caught as often. And to agree with another poster, men don’t go around telling everyone they got cheated on.

I agree too. I also think that in some instances cheating may be forgivable…but 10,000 texts, trips, and screwing later you’ve commenced a serious relationship. And she’s probably doing more to “keep him”. But at what costs.

Now he’s lost everything so whatever they had wasn’t enough to “sustain” him.

i also agree that women cheat too. but for obviously different reasons. I think many men check out of relationships very early on. And a woman will cheat just to statisfy really basic needs.

The Champ says, “as reluctant as i am to admit that any particular gender has the edge in the cheating sweepstakes, history has shown us that men with elevated social status seem to be more likely to sidestep faithfulness and monogamy more than anyone else.”

Women who stand something to lose are less likely to cheat, but I think that women cheat as much as men, they just don’t get caught.

They’re just as likely to cheat?

I have to disagree my brother.

Most women have been offered free !#@$ since she hit puberty. And it ain’t just obvious dance floor hollers, but insidious “friends” with ulterior motives.

“Beset on all sides by the tyranny of evil men”

When she gives in, she gives into something that is not only just physically invasive, but often times emotionally/mentally invasive.

This is not to say that she’s “emo” over very Tom, Dick, and Harry – her internal world *can* be very disconnected to the antics of Jamal n’nem. But there is an inner dialogue, before the act, during the act, and undoubtedly after the act.

And throw in the fact that a woman can never really be sure of her physical safety in the company of men, and throw in social conditioning…

That has to be counter-balanced by the fact her toes curl, legs shake, and eyes roll back during the highest of the heights.

So on the one hand she weighs the mere possibility of carnal bliss, and on the other hand she has to deal with the physical, mental, and emotional ramifications.

For many, given the # of offers, she’s likely to say no, 99% of the time.

Reverse the situation, put the man in the driver’s seat, and he does not hesistate.

As a side note, most women do live in carnal abundance, but most men do not. And to add insult to injury, most women are only after the few men who do.

As for the wives standing there a la Spitzer, they might as well stand by him one more time before they take half.

I wrote about Kwame Kilpatrick a couple weeks back. His biggest downfall is that he was dumb enough to be a texting machine when it came to his indiscretions. He didn’t learn a damn thing from Kobe Bryant. He also didn’t recognize that all black politicians have a natural bullseye on their foreheads.

this is almost too easy. my VSB sisters have already spoken thoroughly on the varying rationales behind cheating, so no need to repeat. i’d rather comment on the probability of BHO cheating.

firstly, i doubt he would do it at all (too much to lose. and he might make history AGAIN by getting himself impeached fih true)…but if he DID, he wouldn’t be some local tail á la kwame. it would be some off-the chain type of drama, with an internationally-known model. this would go on for a year, THEN she would go missing. and no one would be the wiser, except for michelle, who would of course have dispatched the special execution force, like the sister who was ejected from the plane over the Congo in The Good Shepherd…

Logic and reason is just that…logic and reason. When the lil head gets stimulated..all that logic and rational thought goes out the window..lol

If a man sees some cute lil chick with a bubble walking up to him..telling him what he likes to hear…making him feel like the man he is or wants to be.. of course his other “head” is going to take over and control his thought processes.

Look…I’ve been preaching this sh*t for years, If you’ve watched Chris Rock, South Park and Boondocks then you have the answers to all of lifes questions (sounds like a joke at first, but it will hit you eventually)

Chris: “It’s easy for woman to give up free D*ck cause they’ve been trieng to get f**kd since they were twelve. Us men, when we getting chased by p*ssy, we just can’t run that fast”

South Park: “Cheating is not a choice, it’s actually a desease, and i am not irresponsible, selfish, and uncaring I’m sick”

Boondocks: “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, just cause you don’t have proof that your wife isn’t cheating, doesn’t mean she is not” and ofcourse “B*tches love the smiley face”

I rest my case.

P.S Would all the ladies quit with the yapping about men are this and men are that…regergitating some sh*t you heard on Ricky Lake/Dr. Phil 100 times don’t make you smart at all, infact if anything it makes you more vulnerable to falling prey to that injustice since you feel you know men. {so homo}

I do think that there are two points that really illuminate some key facts.

The first being that both men and women do cheat. Just because men happen to get caught more often does not make it any less wrong for women. Just because OJ Simpson got the sentence not guilty from our judicial system does not mean that what he did is any less wrong in the eyes of God. As such, I don’t think its a logical thing to say, “if you’re going to cheat, don’t get caught”. Getting caught morally has little to do with the discussion in my opinion.

This still applies, even though in this society we like to preach ‘innocent until proven guilty’.

Secondly, I think men may be more predisposed to cheat because we as males are genetically hardwired. You’d find it more than difficult to train a Saluki *not* to chase a squirrel. That dog was made to run and hunt, and it’s innate desires lead it to do just that. (A Saluki is one of the ancient dog breeds).

Similarly, I think men have been ‘built’ to be promiscuous, and this idea is also somewhat ingrained in their heads. Biologically, men can impregnate as many women as they want at any given time for as long as they choose (or not choose). Women have 9 month pregnancy terms, and thus aren’t built to sleep around as much (discounting the fairly recent advances in society when it comes to plan A and plan B contraception).

With that being said, I think that often times men that do cheat do so not because they don’t care about their wives. I think the fact that women listen to Dr. Phil and read Cosmopolitan articles about what men ‘really’ want is what frustrates them to step out.

Men usually just say what they want, but its not really what women want to hear and doesn’t really coincide with what they’d like to do or give to us. I feel like for either sex, if someone doesn’t feel like they’re having their concerns heard, even if they don’t actively stray, it certainly opens the door for someone else to come into the mix…

*oxtail and stew peas for sunday dinner*

ppl think im crazy when i say if i find out my man is cheating ill blame myself for not giving him what he wanted then leave because obviously i fell short. 9 times out of 10, your mate lets you know what they need and either you’re too selfish or whatever to give it to them. of course theres always that one that is getting everything at home and still steps out, and i think at that point its a matter of options. i know i only say im celibate when i have no one to sleep with, lol

WTF Hell to the Naw.. this is some bullshyt. MEN and WOMEN cheat because they want to. I dont care how much a woman falls short the decision to cheat instead of leave is totally in the cheaters hands. It dosent justify, or give a free pass. If my husband chose to leave because of BAC head then thats my fault if he chose to cheat because of it..that’s his. If you are genetically hard wired to be promiscuous then dont commit. When you make the decision to enter into a committed relationship you are deciding that regardless of how hard it is, this person is the one you are willing to make that sacrifice for. If the person is not then leave, cheating however is a selfish thing. You are trying to have your nookie and eat it too…. I refuse to take the blame for someone else’s inability to control themselves. I dont care how wack my head game is, how dirty my house, how much nagging I do etc. because (and I cant stress it enough) you can try to work it out or you can leave but cheating? GET THE F*ck outta here

177 J.R. Bermard September 4, 2008 at 4:21 pm

I think it depends. If either party gets so comfortable that they think their significant other should just learn to live with their flaws and such, that is selfish of them. Just because *you* may be dirty doesn’t mean I should be content with it just because I’m with you.

I’m of the train of thought that people in relationships will put forth the effort to make sure the other is never in wanting. And even if someone is left in wanting, the effort is greatly appreciated and the relationship is all the stronger because of it.

No one is perfect, but if its clear that the other person wants something, you can put forth a *sincere* effort to try and appease whatever grievance they have (especially if you truly care about them). I may not be the perfect husband for some woman some day, but I’ll try my hardest, and have no problem working to change whatever bad/annoying habits of mine to do so.

If you’re fine with someone leaving the relationship altogether because of your stubbornness, then you probably didn’t care about them that much in the first place.

Maybe people cheat and don’t elect to end a relationship because they hope that better days and change is coming. I don’t know, I can’t speak on behalf of them. I do understand why hope might prevent a clean ‘breaking’ of the relationship and put someone into an intermediary state of affairs (pun intended).

178 shay-d-lady September 4, 2008 at 5:58 pm

there is nothing you can say to justify cheating. If you dont like my ways and I am not willing to change then you need to decide to deal with it or leave. If I am unwilling to change I have to deal with the fact that you will leave. Cheating, regardless of how clever, lengthy and articulate the response is still a selfish decision.

Reply

179 J.R. Bermard September 4, 2008 at 7:22 pm

Dang slim. I’m not trying to justfiy or anything like that. I’m just saying, I can see why someone might. I feel you in that right is right, and wrong is wrong, which cheating certainly is. Just saying that I see where someone might fall into certain traps because they’re too scared to leave the relationship.

I don’t think that people are that mean-spirited and selfish to cheat (in marriages anyway), but then again, I’m probably being overly idealistic. In which case, if I were a victim of cheating, I’d rather learn the reason why I was cheated on be to an inability for us to communicate and get on the same page, as opposed to ‘I dunno, I just wanted a nut and you were’nt around and he looked really good too’ or something like that.

At least that way I wouldn’t be questioning why I even got with the jawn in the first place. *knock on wood* lol

my bad first let me apologize.. this is a very personal subject to me (see posts above) and I am also typing my responses from my phone so I didnt have time “nice it down” but I did say you were articulate!!!
This is my thing about wondering why they cheat. There is no reason. They cheated because their needs became more important than the relationship at that moment regardless to what was going on. Questioning why he cheated is totally different from wanting to know what is wrong with the relationship. Cheating is easy, working it out, telling people not only what you want and how you feel but when they are not living up to those things and hearing the same is what’s hard. How the he-ll will cheating ever make a relationship better? If you get caught and it doesn’t end the relationship right then, you add trust issues to whatever else was going on.

As a Detroiter, I can say that Kwame is very cocky and arrogant. He thought that he would actually get away with cheating on his wife (whom we RARELY saw with him, even before all the drama). He thinks he can have any woman he wants because he’s “Kwame Kilpatrick.” He has tried to get with both my sister and my co-worker, all while he was married!

I could go with the argument that politicians are always in the spotlight. They have power, money, and fame, to a certain extent. With those characteristics, a politician could find women throwing themselves at them! And if they’re arrogant enough to believe that they’ll get away with it, they just might do it. But then, what’s the story with Tyrone around the corner? He has 5 kids by 3 different women, engaged to the 3rd BM, broke as hell, with no power. Why are women throwing themselves at him, knowing he has nothing to really offer? And yet, he still cheats because…hell, why not? LOL!

HE is the infidel, the adulterer, scumbag….he made a promise that he is breaking…he is the one that owes his wife something.

thats why i never understood the women who fight other women over a cheating man…especially when the other woman didnt know he wasnt single. that makes no sense to me…that issue is between you and your so-called man.

this statement implies that men are less in control of themselves sexually than women. …although ur statement does highlight my point which is that IF women are more in control of their sexuality than men why don’t they decide not to cheat with “spoken for” men by keeping their pu**y in their pocket? maybe women are not any less perverted than men or any more disciplined in their fidelity.

By this ‘rule’ the guy kinda has to choose or the choice is made for him. Either 1 make your home your castle or 2 be the revered of the community. These guys just happen to be able to make that name for them selves in the streets. N these women are in love w/ that (his abilaty to make the masses [his job] happy). I think that they are attracted to that part of the guy and wish he could comand the castle like that.

I’ve spent many a night consoling a homegirl because her man cheated on her. And no matter how much evidence she has, no matter how many times he does it, she still stays…So my question is what the heck is wrong with the women who put up with it?

Ash wants to know:

IS THERE A FAITHFUL POLITICIAN OUT THERE…ANYWHERE?

by faithful Politician i’m fairly certain u mean “male” politician particularly. …and generally you probably mean “men” generally by and large. …just so happens politicians and people in leadership and power positions are the ones that have more fame and celebrity (which are mostly men) and are the ones being reported on by mass media. don’t worry ladies as you gain more power and “equality” you will get ur turn in the debacle spotlight. i know u can’t wait.

the answer to ur question Ash is Yes, i’m sure there are faithful politicians (in terms of their lack of acting on desires) however i do find that many politicians, attorneys, religious leaders and used/new car salesmen to be a slippery lot.

as it were, this is what chokes my solar plexus, the fact that women folk attempt to put the onus on men when it comes to cheating and bemoan, decry and yell “FOUL” as they drive scores of men to a guilt complex about their “cheating ways” and attempt to jump off the bus themselves before it crashes.

well i’m not coming to the pity party ladies and the greatest transfer of guilt since the beginning of the ages WILL NOT blind me. if women are so concerned about a man cheating it seems they would keep their pu**y in their pocket. …because several times out of 100, its another woman whom he is cheating with. oh i get it, you didn’t know he was married right? …my azz! …but you didn’t know he had a girlfriend until you were already sucking him in, right? bollix! sometimes women don’t know that a man is spoken for but i’m willing to bet that most of the time they do. many times the woman is married as well. what? married women don’t cheat? …and pig pu**y aint pork. (not likely)

until recently female teachers that sleep with their male students was seldom being reported. does that mean it was not happening. not hardly. the reason we see and hear so much about mens cheating debacles is because most of the leaders and powerful people in this country are men and thats what makes the news. if the news reported all the Glendas and Pauls next door and their sexual indiscretions, nothing else would have time to make the news cast.

many Paulas, Christines, Sheilas, (adfu*kingnauseum) cheat on their spouses too and we hear about it every day but it doesn’t make the news it makes the beauty shop herald and the barber shop gazette.

hey but here’s some new science for you folks who want to delve more into the cheating ways of men. they say it’s nature and nurture just published by The National Academy of Science. I know how many of you think that “nature” is just a poor lazy explanation/excuse for infidelity but it appears to increasingly and scientifically become a factor. (that’s if u buy into the science)

wonder who all is defecient in allele 334 or abundant in vasopressin?

the pseudoscience of the Allele 334 gene aside, you cant fight both sides of the war GK. You cant argue that women cheat just as much as men in one breath and then argue that men are biologically/naturally disposed to cheating as opposed to women. So either you believe that women are more faithful and cheat less and that the reason behind this is some sort of male genetic predisposition or men and women are equally faithful but infidelity by men is more widely reported.

Men with position get snatch thrown at them. Why? Because some women are slores. I don’t think one gender cheats more than then other, I just think one gender gets caught more than the other because they don’t think THEY will get caught. If history is any indication, if you stick your stick in a hole that doesn’t belong to you, if might get bit.

Too many comments already…Woulda said this last night but I had to go to bed…

Christine isn’t some randoms chick he just happened to meet. They went to HS together. Cass Tech–to be specific. I’m thinking class of 89 or 90. She was cuter when she was young but got about two light-skinned points–particularly from dark men. Further, her ex-husband, or so I hear–but I ain’t one to gossip–was a friend/associate of Kwame’s. This is all mess.

AND, he hasn’t messed up his family legacy any more than his FATHER did. Word on the street is that the father cheated so much that he could NOT be the mayor–which is what Carolyn really wanted. But she knew he couldn’t get thrust into the limelight to run for the mayor’s office because all his side-hoes would be paraded out and she’d be officially embarrassed. Again, I ain’t one to gossip, but I am one to listen to grown folks’ discussions and remember years later. LOL Cus see, my momma ‘nem don’t gossip either.

Lastly, when you marry certain men, you, on some level, know what’s going down. Please don’t think Christine was the FIRST or only woman Kwame cheated on his with with. He didn’t wait to start this behavior after the wedding either. So his wife, she stays cus she knew the deal before the reception space was reserved!

As for Obama and Michelle, if someone tries to get at him, trust it won’t be a Black woman. Why?? Because we can see through Michelle’s ‘polish’. We all know that on some level, she’s not above going all vaseline and razor-blade on Obama and whatever chick tries to get at him! Hell, I’m even considering stepping up my long-skirt game just in case I walk past the White House. I don’t want Michelle thinking I’m tryna do nothing. She’s a tall woman and my arms are to short to box with God and her ass!!

Oh but Becky?? Becky’s ass doesn’t know to look beyond Michelle’s appearance. Becky doesn’t know that just because Michelle doesn’t wag her fingers and twist her neck, she will still woop-a-b*tch’s ass, figuratively and I suspect, LITERALLY. Becky will try it.

Here’s my take on the whole thing. We know the so-called reasons women cheat, we know the so-called reasons men cheat. But it always boils down to…cheaters cheat because they can…and as long as they’ve got options. There always be a pressed azz skeezer waiting to hop on and ride. There will always be some wack azz dude ready to stick and move. For powerful folk…the temptation and head rush can be intoxicating. Cheating is the ultimate challenge…to see if they can get away with it. If it happens once, and the spouse stays…that’s carte blanche to keep it up (see any of the patron saints…the Kennedys…or Bill Clinton).

I seriously doubt B-Rock would cheat on Michelle at this point. He knows that everybody is waiting for him to slip. Michelle probably has drummed the fear of God into him too…and showed him “Waiting to Exhale” several times to drive the point home LOL. Anybody he could even THINK of messing with on the side…would be a downgrade in the extreme.

I have a theory on why men cheat with less attractive women. It’s because they love their wives. I know some of you are thinking “if a ninja really loved his wife, he wouldn’t cheat in the first place.” That’s fine and dandy, but I think the wife would be more pissed if the husband cheated with a woman with the bigger butt, slimmer waist, cute face, etc? And woman always bring this up in the argument too, with lines like “well at least if could have got you a better lookin b!tch than that” . . .oh really. If we did this, I don’t think alot of female could handle that. There self esteem is already effed up because of the cheating in general. IF you add Halle Berry lookin chick into the mix, I think that would make ish worse.

But than again some black woman would find an imperfection on the Halle Berry lookin chick to throw in the husband’s face.

Also the less attractive chick have to work harder to get in said husband’s pants, so that might also be a factor too.

Honestly, I think men cheat out of ego and to feel better about themselves, as if they’re doing something untraceable. And I think women are much more emotional cheaters, they actually fall “in love” with the other person and begin to develop deep feelings. It’s not so much as the sex is incredible, as they feel connected emotionally to the other person.

But as always, there are exceptions to every rule. So there may be slight variations with this hypothesis.

I think dudes cheat cuz they aren’t getting some need met. Sort of like a stress eater or a substance abuser.

I agree on what you have to say about emotionally cheating women. Sally Jesse Raphael would put it like “when yo girl is out there talkin about ‘he don’t… he won’t… I wish he would…’” she is handing over her dance card to her date @ club creep.

Ultimately everyone is trying to get their needs met. The way they want them met. When they want them met.

I just bet Kwame still telling her but baby it wasn’t me someone was using my phone. I really think he loves his wife…he just wanted some freaky sh*t on the side.

I haven’t even read this post past the photo and its caption. I just want to say that since you all introduced the terminology of Lightskinned Points, I can’t get it out of my head. It’s literally “struck” (ha!, Freudian slip.) I walk around and observe the black women I see and I try to figure out what any given lightskinned woman’s LSP quotient probably is. Like, I went to the Labor Day Carnival Parade in Brooklyn and I was like “oh schnappz, her LSP quotient is mad high – she prolly gets dumped after the firt 3 full weeks of giving it up.”

I remember when I first heard his comments on that, I was like yeah its clear ole boy didn’t go to a black school (HBCU’s and a few select urban universities…i see you Temple) because them same ho*s who were running student gov’t and got on their knees for athletes/greeks are the same ones who grow up to get elected to city/state/fed positions lol.

infidelity) I wanted to get a little bit of insight on our failed relationship. For the most part, because of who his mom is, it opened up a lot of doors for him to be out in the public eye with other politicians daughters throwing their drawls at him. Traveling was an everyday thing for him, from going to several superbowls, to the DNC…
everything was readily available for him. I guess it made him feel like a superstar of sorts… whatev…. he had a big d*ck so maybe he just wanted to sow his royal oats in every fertile chick around the country….

First, let me say that I finally understand light-skinned points (I just needed Kwame’s ladyfriend’s picture as a reference.)

Now to my point: All people, men and women, will do as much as they think they can get away with. It follows that a politician, or any moderately powerful, successful person will be more susceptible to lying and cheating, simply because they can. It’s just human nature.

This is compounded by the fact that the panties tend to drop on cue when a man (or woman) has a little bit of power/money/position. Can you blame them for partaking in what is handed to them on a silver platter/office desk/hotel/backseat?

Furthermore, women tend to be more attracted to a man with power, money, (something to offer). Men pretty much are attracted to women. That’s just genetics. :-D

um..yes. if i believed that all men cheat and it was just a matter of time, i might be able to buy the “well, it was there!” logic. but i know too many good (and good lookin) dudes that DONT cheat to ever give men that kind of free pass. if you expect that little of men, they will certainly rise to the occasion! or sink, i suppose…

the bottom line is that a cheater is a cheater. i dont believe in reformed cheaters, not really….its a character flaw thats either there or it aint.

353 DirtyJerz September 4, 2008 at 11:26 am

Monica, I co-sign that. Money and power=a busy man away from home. The minute I step outta my door, it’s room to flirt and eventually cheat. ALL men have the capacity to cheat, its just that each one of us have a different p*ssy point. If the right opportunity presents itself, a man or woman is gonna take it. Has nothing to do with looks, and thats why you have an instance like Kwame Kilpatrick and Cruella.

I think they do it because they can, and are all too often allowed to do it. It’s almost expected, no? And honestly, women are attracted to power and status. It’s biological. He-ll, I have what I believe to be a TOTALLY irrational crush on the fictional Tony Soprano. He’s dumb as a brick, has a speech impediment AND mother issues, not to mention criminally inclined. The only thing he even remotely has going for him in my PlayBook is his physical status as “A Big Man”. But he could totally get it from The PBG. It’s the power and organaztional status he holds that both attracts me to him and leads him to believe it’s perfectly OK to carry on w/me (he’d have to do that in secret of course) or anybody else he felt like making his coumare’.

360 Kamilah September 4, 2008 at 11:39 am

Ok, so here are my two.five cents and after completing an extensive survey of a few friends in five seconds it all comes down to this:

men cheat because of opportunity

women cheat because their man isn’t getting it done (this can be emotional or physical)

men feel bad for getting caught, because if you never found out they would be fine with that

women feel bad because they actually love you and would rather get it from you, but alas you weren’t getting it done

men go with what is available

women find someone ridiculously hot and/or comfortable in another city or at least outside of the immediate radius

men tend to get caught, mostly because the other woman wants someone to know

women just get in an argument so we can “break-up” for a few days and then when we get back together it technically isn’t cheating…

but that’s all I got in five seconds, more later…

ps – I heart vsb and would never cheat on ya’ll ;-)

Well, as the of this ENTIRE D*#% THREAD today (who’da thunk P and Champ would put my idea on put me on…whoa!), let me offer my piece to the puzzle…

For the men, I think it simply comes down to being intoxicated with the attraction from women (of many kinds) and admiration (of everybody) that develops from their titles. You have enough plaques, titles, comp drinks/dinners, and juice bestowed on you…and something snaps. For just that split moment of forgetting the committment/covenant you’ve made with wifey. And and next thing you know, you’re just a text message/tabloid report/late night phone call/paternity suit waiting to happen. The crazy thing, like Kamilah said, is the lack of remorse men feel UNTIL they get caught? Some with consciences eventually crack or just leave when it gets out-of-hand, but many, MANY will stay and keep their something on the side, and if it last long enough…may d*#% -near feel that they are entitled to it. As for availability/opportunity, those are rhetorical factors. Women are attracted to title, power and authority like men are attracted to the outfits Meagan Good seems to ALWAYS wear in movies…sad, but true. I don’t know what it is about low-rise jeans and men, but it was our undoing.

As for women, Kamilah right to a degree on all counts, but what it all adds up to is 1) loneliness, 2) refusal to relinquish time vested.

These women who “stand by their adulterer” boggle my mind, but then again, after you’ve been made a public spectacle, many of them think, “who’s gonna want me now” Lord willing their still attractive, but if all your hot years have been used up on one guy, and your buying stock in Ulta3 to maintain (ask ‘em fellas), your pilot light is then dimming. As to the refusal, one of the most envied (if not hated) women in the Diaspora is “the next chick” — you KNOW who I’m talking about ladies — the beneficiary of ALL THE WORK you’ve done to bone up, clean up, dress up, hook up, and “booty up” the gentleman you call your husband/boo/mate, only to have it passed on to someone who may NEVA KNOW what kind of a Urkel he was when you met him, but like the many other who have thought likewise, you saw “potential in him”.

Can you blame ‘em for being a little pissed? Given the spiritual nature of many, most just choose to cope with ice cream and Kleenex, but there’s also some who “don’t go gentle into that good night”…key’n cars, breakin’ isht, having public fights, throwin Cab & Merlot on people at social functions, and all-around changin’ the Evite list for e’rebody in town…’cause him & her CANNOT be at the same house party.

Oh, I could go on…but I think so many of you have already said so much. Let me just close by saying…YES, the men seem on the surface to be the scale-tippers in this case of political fidelity.

BUT I’d be careful, because it seems even Sarah “Norma Rae” Palin is being called to the mat about her undying love for her high school sweetheart. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/03/mccain-camp-battles-natio_n_123696.html)

‘Tis true…oxytocin is what sets off labor n’ delivery AND it is released in both Mama and baby during breastfeeding, that’s why its such a pleasurable experience to both parties involved. It is the bonding hormone, so to speak. Its how nature tries to ensure that our genes are continuously passed on…reproduction and survival of the young.

I think it could be used as a lazy excuse, sure. But I don’t think its mere existence as probably true means its automatically a lazy excuse.

I think if you subscribe to conventional ideas about fidelity, then you screw up…sure, you don’t get to be “well it ain’t natural.” But if you don’t subscribe to such ideas, then shit should be out in the open from jump (or find a like-minded shawty).

I just sometimes think that we spend way too much time intellectualizing stuff that is really about, in essence, a disconnect between what we want and what is societally acceptable.

No fuss, no work like with the wife, just sex with no repercussion. Problem is, it NEVER happens that way and then you’re caught hoping it stays low, FOREVER.

No fuss, no work like with the wife, just sex with no repercussion. Problem is, it NEVER happens that way and then you’re caught hoping it stays low, FOREVER.”

Teech i’m sure some woman somewhere has gotten away with cheating on her husband without loss of job etc and minus the big debacle. …and even though prostitutes turn on there janes sometimes, wouldn’t they be a safer bet than a full on steady situationship.

Never huh? next you’ll be telling me ur gonna put negative information on my highschool “permanent record.”

ohhhhhh

Never Never land right next to Peter Pan…

not condoning just saying. yes there is always repurcussions of some kind if only mental spiritual but i do believe some have gotten away otherwise unscathed.

Yes. Forever.
Forever explained: I step out on the wife and skeet scott free. 10 years later she finds out. My marriage is potentially over due to a Jones a had ten years ago, even though right now, I’m oat free and a changed man.

That skeleton never dies, male or female. You can play the odds, but if you are in a position of power (and these are the folks this post is about) your chances of keeping it quiet are next to none, especially in a world full of camera phones and one click publication.

So, become and infidel…cover it up forever.

“women just get in an argument so we can “break-up” for a few days and then when we get back together it technically isn’t cheating…”

That’s the oldest trick in the book. I did that once and I still had to hear old girl’s nagging, even though we wasn’t “technically” together. I thought I did a good job cutting off the side chick, but she still thought it was okay to call me 2 in the morning.

i do think chris rock was right… men are only as faithful as their options. i have a “friend” who was dating a guy when they were in college. the guy was popular, many girls wanted him because he was an athlete, he was good looking and could actually carry a conversation. this guy started up the romance with the girl… he thought she was so fly, which she was, especially in comparison to the other chicks that attended their university. he graduated and hung onto to her a little bit while she was still in school. after receiving a job with a very popular sporting goods company and coming into contact with many other women, many of which were beautiful… the guy dropped the girl like a bad habit. stopped calling, stopped texting… blamed his lack of communication with the girl on his busy new life. why did he do this? because he now had tons of options. options that he never had before.

true story guys, true story.

laylah this sounds like a young guy who found that he had a lot in life to experience at such a young age and regardless of how pretty or good one woman was he wasn ready to cash it all in. she probably shouldn’t have been either.

Champ, you repeated what you said a few weeks ago: “maybe we’re truly only as faithful as our options.”

I’ll throw out a theory based on evolutionary psychology and how mankind came as far as we did.

Humans are not born equal in strength, smarts, speed or stealth. In small tribes and villages for hundreds of thousands of years, the most gifted males had the best chance of rising to the top of the social hierarchy, and an abundance of willing women was one of the perks. The result was a stronger gene pool since they had more children who were more likely to inherit those qualities.

The downside was if the tribe was too small, recessive genes would kick in and compromise the collective health. Mother Nature solved this gene problem by making males 1) more polygamous, and 2) more likely to want to wander and explore far distances, where they would meet and mate females in other tribes either through friendship or conquering by war.

The females didn’t have the luxury to be as polygamous. She was burdened with pregnancies and raising a child until it was old enough to fend for itself. She needed protection by a male who had some degree respect by other tribe members and hunting or farming talents. Without this, she and her infant would be vulnerable. Thus, it was in her best interest to somehow prove to the male that she was monogamous to him only, whether or not this was true. Virginity was highly valued historically because it was to the disadvantage of a male to tie up his resources taking care of another male’s child for years. When females cheated, they had to be much smarter about it too since they had more to lose.

Even though females were and are more prone to monogamy, they would trade up with a ‘better’ male if it was in their best interest. Males would have a harem either openly or on the sly when they could.

Although none of this seems relevant in contemporary life and there have always been plenty of exceptions to this, ie, couples who love each other and are loyal even with legitimate options, we have only been living like this for less than one hundred years out of 1/3 of a million years we’ve stood upright and called ourselves human. I touched on all of this in an older post of mine, Hard Rocks Love, Lesson 1 – Evolution is a B*tch.

In summary, we are the products of our ancestors, and their ways are hardwired into our brains. Our culture is merely the software, and often the two conflict.

Trill that’s a great and plausible theory with the culture of evolutionary psych from our distant past being hardwired in our brains still today etc. (provided u believe evolution a possibility)

in-scre-scring…

…although many don’t believe in evolution but believe in creation instead and that man was created already standing upright and so forth. many believe that God, thru men penning the Bible would have described the evolutionary process if it were so. …and thus if it’s not in the book it didn’t happen that way. (evolution)

i find it all very in-scre-scring.

It’s all about options. Men will be as faithful as their options, and women will be as loyal as theirs.

All things being equal in a relationship (status, money, etc.), if a guy decides to exercise one of his options and cheats then his SO can choose to exercise one of her options and move on.

However when things are not equal the loyalty options diminish on the part of the “lesser” (less money, less status etc.) person/the woman. They have to face the reality that they may not find anything “better” than what they currently have and in this day and age money, status, and power mean more to many women and they will stay loyal to the paycheck and perks if not the person.

The primary reason why men cheat is because they can get away with it. Women tend to be very forgiving when it comes to infidelity especially when children are involved and/or when the couple has built a nice nest egg. Although I’ve always been adamant about leaving a man who cheats, I honestly wonder how if I would take the same hard stance if my husband cheated and we had children. Am I willing to give up years of marriage, children, and a wonderful life for a piece of ass? On the flip side if a woman were to forgive a man once, what would deter him from cheating again? I wish people would think of the consequences of cheating. Busting a nut really isn’t worth all the pain, embarrassment, or the potential exposure to STDs. I do tell my friend that if their man cheats, they should leave because obviously his so selfish that her feelings are irrelevant. The irony is that men are very intolerant to cheating. I would say that 90% of the men out there would leave their girls high and dry if they found out she had another dick inside of her.

SO I WOULD LOVE LOVE LOVE to place the blame on brothers. I would love to say it is their accute inability to be faithful, that men with power and ego are never satisfied, and that ALL MEN (esp. those with money and clout) ARE DOGS!!! (ON a sidenote: as I type that the song “Why must I be like that why must Iiiiiii chase the cat, nothing but the dog in me!” plays on repeat inside my third eye)

BUT I have to be honest, and honestly it’s not *all* men’s fault. Women are definitly attracted to power and status. But we have a deeper problem….. I call it POP. Power of the Pu$$Y. It is the irreversible and undisputed thought that our stuff is soooo good, that once we put it on you…. you will leave whateva’ you had behind…. just for some of our behind!

Women sleep with married and taken men all the time, not because they wanna be the other woman, spending holidays, vacays, and Sunday’s with other lonley or single chica’s. NO! It is because somewhere at some point we were taught the value of POP. We belive it is enuff to make you men folk call home and say “Put yo mama on the phone!….. Sweetheart, I AINT NEVER COMING HOME!” (Direct quote from HARLEM NIGHT”S) If in bed and you ask….. “Babay, is my loving, sweet, tight and warm” What man says no? And when you say “Baby, am I the BEST you ever had?” what man has ever said no?
Have you?

‘zactly, im_the_sweetest…no man is gonna tell a woman (his wife, main girl, or side piece) that her p*ssy is sub-par. And as much as a woman thinks that they prefer honesty, thats some honesty that men KNOW will f*ck everything up, so we don’t. Yall have self esteem, we have the same thing, and its called an ego. Both are fragile

I think that it is pointless to say who is weak and who is strong. If the situation is pointless then why strive to find the inermost doubt of a person. In my opinion women and men are equally strong. It just matters what role they play in society. Either they choose to be weak or they choose to be strong. It all depends on what you think. Your self. You should always follow your heart and if you think you are being weak. Be strong.
