However most men, unfortunately, would not consider an anonymous visit with a prostitute an "affair". Most women (and pollsters, no doubt, would disagree).

And when you figure in prostitutes and number of clientèle for each, a 10 to 1 ratio is not unreasonable. Just a thought.
Soooooooo 92% of married men are cheating with prostitutes? Who are the 8% of women cheating with, gigolos?

Re: Divorce - Adultery Thread

Believers can't divorce except for adultery,if you do both of you and then who ever marries you will be living in adultery.If an unbeliever divorces you that don't apply.

Math.19:2: And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
3: The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4: And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5: And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6: Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7: They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8: He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9: And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, (adultery) and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery


1 Cor.7:12: But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
13: And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
14: For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
15: But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage (under bondage means, you are not bound by the law of marriage because the person is not a believer and God didn't join them together) in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
16: For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?

Re: Divorce - Adultery Thread

Is it adultery if a married (man or women) uses porn?

Rico read ssssslllllloooowwwwwllllyyy.

I never said 92% of married men were cheating.( Unlike Dan I will challenge a misquote.)

I was pointing out the difference between men and women on the definition of "affair"

The previous post also went to ratio of cheaters, not to number of those who cheat.

Will be glad to explain difference in PM if you need more help differentiating.

LOL

As I posted in another thread unlike "polls" by Redbook, Cosmo, et al the majority of married men don't cheat.

True. Someone was telling me it wasn't adultery because the bible says ""Whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." The persons argument was something about because the bible says "in his heart." I never really understood the argument.

Mrs.McD,

I have counseled many women and men where porn was involved. The one without the adiction felt that adultery was committed. They felt betrayed and trust lost.

I counsel very similarly with the actual adultery and perceived such as you are describing with use of porn.

Since the Bible tells us that if a man looks at a woman to lust after her in his heart - he commits adultery...BIBLICALLY you would have to say ADULTERY has been commited.

Blessings, Rhoni
