...most of the women "standing by their men" are just protecting the gravy train. Two thumbs up to Jenny Sanford.

Distrust anyone who wants to teach you something.

a woman can find herself in. Many conflicting emotions run through her mind. On the one hand, she experiences a deep sense of humiliation and betrayal and would do nothing rather than kick her husband out of the house. But what always trumps this desire is her concern for the well being of the children. If she decided to leave her husband, the grief she would feel for her children for having to endure the breakup of their family is far greater than the grief she is experiencing now. This is a personal and private battle she has to fight and is one that every woman, in a similar situation, faces. But this hasn't stopped me from fantasizing that one day, some woman, somewhere, is going to dump a glass of water on her husband' s head while he is making a public apology. Now that would be a sight to remember.

she's kicked him out of the house temporarily. Come to think of it, if I were in a similar situation, I would demand a brief affair of my own to even things out. There's nothing that compares to having sex with a new man when you've been with the same guy for a long time. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, right guys?

I wish people would ask themselves how Jenny Sanford's words would sound coming from a man. He'd come off as a perfect asshole, no? So...perhaps a bit less sympathy is in order. I suspect the marriage had was failing long before Mark Sanford had his affair and that at best they share in the responsibility.

Gov. Sanford just might have been outed by the other man.

Hell hath no fury like a man cheated upon. It’s not the classic definition of cuckold, but it fits. Providing this report in the New York Times doesn’t end up competing story with another storyline from somewhere else. It comes with a warning: women everywhere beware:

The associate, who asked not to be identified, is a Buenos Aires television executive involved in hiring the woman, whom he identified as María Belén Chapur, a producer at the television network America from 2001 to 2002.

Last December, the executive said, Ms. Chapur was dating a young Argentine a few months after her affair with Mr. Sanford began. The man happened to see the e-mail messages being exchanged between the governor and Ms. Chapur, said the executive — who said he had direct knowledge of the situation — and hacked into her e-mail account to see the rest.

Infuriated, the man sent the messages to The State, the newspaper in South Carolina’s capital, Columbia.

Why do I say beware to women?

Because as forgiving as our gender has historically had to be, because we couldn’t support ourselves in past centuries, so we couldn’t afford burning down the roof over our own heads. The male of our species is not very forgiving. Once a woman cheats on a man, I’ve learned through innumerable interviews, that most men never really forgive fully, always wondering, even feeling so stripped of masculinity that they can’t ever resume what once was in the relationship.

Fallout from a cuckold boyfriend, who is made a fool, is a lesson about privacy. Don’t leave a trail. Not anywhere, but especially in your email inbox. Source
