You know, this is perfectly acceptable with a mutual, mature, responsible understanding.
The problem is, as is illustrated by the article, that men can be such pricks about it living in a perpetual adolescence where finding panties in the glove box is just a terrifically hilarious situation. Or lying to girlfriends about leaving your family is just a normal routine meant to appease your new lover in the early days of your affair leading up to a complacence that keeps the man satisfied and the woman unavailable for other opportunities.
Grow the fuck up. That's my sentiment. Women steeling themselves against the inevitability of infidelity is not the answer.
