Playboy: Cheaters score at home

Americans can't get no sex satisfaction - even when they're getting plenty at home.
That's what this month's Playboy reports, with a survey that reveals while more than 75 percent haven't cheated, most of those who do cheat have a healthy and adventurous at-home sex life - not the intimacy drought most people assume pre-empts an affair.
``Pure lust,'' opined Bobby Hurley of Boston, upon hearing the results. ``Lust. That's all I can think of to explain it.''
To Medford sex therapist Dan Pollets, it's all about boundaries: ``If someone has a high level of sexual adventure and very poor boundaries, whether they get it at home or not, they're going to be motivated to look elsewhere.''
Contrary to the Playboy results, many experts said a wandering eye has more to do with a dying spark at home than lust for more. Some suggested the Playboy poll of 1,500 people may have targeted a sexually charged pool.
``This is not Reader's Digest we're talking about,'' said Lexington sex therapist and ``Sex Smart'' author Aline Zoldbrod.
Joyce Dolberg Rowe, a marriage counselor celebrating 15 years of wedded bliss, said her experience shows men go looking when their sex lives fall away.
To the average woman, though, cheating is a scoundrel's choice.
``They might just think that they can get something better than they already have,'' said Kerry from Southie. ``The grass may be greener.''
