Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eater!

Do all men cheat? I'm not asking this to pass judgement, I'm asking this as a woman who struggles with internal fears that my future husband, whom I have not yet met, will one day grow tired of me and thus have an affair.  And if they don't cheat, do they all suffer from the same internal demons that make them want to act upon this desire at one point in their marriage?

I was just informed of the "rumors" of Brett Favre's infidelities. I don't know why I'm so taken aback by these new developments. It is not the first time a leading male athlete has sent dirty texts to a woman who was not his wife. But, really why do so many male athletes cheat? Because there are beautiful women dripping in the hotel rooms in every city? Because they know they can and get away with it? Because it makes them feel more manly to have "slayed" numerous women?  Because they feel society will love them more because of all their affairs?  Because women make it too easy?

I would really like to be a fly on a wall in Tiger Wood's therapy sessions. Not so I could point my judgement finger at him. But because I would really like to know the psychological issues going on inside that would cause a man who had everything to cheat.  And even if the answer is,
"because I know I could get away with it," I want to know more. There has to be a greater, deeper reason than that.

I'm not a man, therefor I don't have the internal makeup of a man. I don't know what internal demons they struggle with and I don't know what urges they battle and must control. So, I will keep this post small. But having heard this news today, all this makes me wonder...Do all men cheat? And if not, do all men at one point or another, struggle with the desire to want to cheat?
