Well the two are similar. To o afraid of facing conciquences, too afraid to own up to things. Birds of a feather.
It's bad... though I guess you can't expect honesty from a website that only exists so people can be dishonest.
It's pretty screwed up that most of the guys who paid for this service didn't even have an affair because the site was a scam. These hackers basically ruined the lives of those not savvy about cheating.
According to this Washington Post article, only 15% of the users on Ashley Madison were female, the rest were all male and a whole bunch of fake female profiles. So either the rare females on that website got real, real, real busy or the guys ended up chatting with bots https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-profiles-to-lure-men-in-hacked-data-suggest/
I think cheating is as despicable as the next guy, but some of y'all are being ridiculous. When the first person kills their cheating spouse over this leak, will you say, "Oh well, they're a cheater, they deserved to die"?
That's kind of the risk you take when you cheat isn't it? I mean, I don't think anyone supports someone freaking out that much, but anyone who has payed any attention at all to the news over the last decade or so knows that some people react violently to being cheated on.
These deaths are tragic, but it's fascinating to watch the fallout from this breach- it would make a great movie.
Not surprising. I was wondering about that since almost all the users seemed to be male. Which isn't a surprise either - men tend to want more action on the side (whereas a woman is either content with her one relationship, or doesn't like it and will probably go ahead and divorce his a** and move on). The article mentioned a lot more men signing up for any sort of online dating site than women. I have this revolutionary idea that maybe people should try getting out in the real, physical world and finding their own dates...
Not the same thing at all. IF you cannot imagine living life being divorced from your spouse/losing your family and would kill yourself if a divorce happens, then PERHAPS YOU SHOULDN'T ATTEMPT TO CHEAT ON YOUR SPOUSE!
I'm assuming this is the same case: Heard on the radio this morning that the wife claims the suicide was related to work stress and that someone had used his email address. These are the people I feel sorry for, the spouses who have to find out from the media that they're being cheated on. Also, how DUMB do you have to be to use a state/government/military email?!?! A Texas House Rep chief of staff from the Hou area was on the list too. One of the few females, I guess.
Eh.....If a couple meet, get married, have kids, have grandkids, have great-grandkids and stay married for 70 years or until the day they die.....who cares how they originally met? I mean who besides Swoly-D cares....
The second line of my sig is a joke. What's disgusting is that you think murder is an acceptable consequence of infidelity. People make mistakes. What about the guy going through a rough patch in his marriage who signs up for the site out of curiosity, browses around, and never actually does anything? He and his wife work things out and everything is fine. Then his email gets leaked, wife assumes he was cheating during that rough patch, takes the kids, half his stuff, and leaves him? Is that guy a coward who deserves what he got?
It's much worse than that lol... http://boingboing.net/2015/08/26/ashley-madison-looks-like-it-w.html 1,492 women checked their messages compared to........ 20 million men.
