Why do women cheat? Journalist discovers desire is key

Journalist Charles J. Orlando decided he wanted to find out for himself what motivates women to cheat on their husbands, so he signed up for AshleyMadison.com, the leading dating site for married people to find affair partners. What he discovered in his virtual and real engagements with these women, and during an important conflict with his own wife, was that women crave excitement, adventure, spontaneity, and desire. For women who’s husbands have dropped the ball in these areas, they’re willing to go somewhere else to get it. Check out Orlando’s full telling of his tale at GoodMenProject.com.

For any students out there, this is a huge and quickly growing issue with practically no research on it.
