Myers and Leggit argued and discussed adultery and how it could enrich and stimulate married couples. They highlight the following:
“1. Lessening the feeling that marriage is preventing the partners from living a full life;
2. Removing the need to participate in sexual relations within the marriage when desire is absent;
3. Increasing the vitality and warmth of the adulterer;
4. Motivating the spouse to become more attractive;
5. Providing diversion;
6. Allowing opportunity for discovering one’s sexuality; “ Duberman (1977, p 66)
Many t.v programmes like Sexcetra look at different types of sexual behaviors around the world; portraying certain people`s needs sexual inclinations and beliefs. This programme shows married couples traveling to America visiting various clubs. The swinger`s club held a party called ``the life style convention``. Every individual swapped partners with other married couples. When they were asked by the t.v presenter how they felt about their partner having sex with another person they expressed the view that it did not pose any threat to their relationship. However, a lot of people stated they would feel threatened if their partners became emotionally attached to another individual. Many women said,"sex is sex and love is love and the two should not be mixed, the two should be separated.” The women also stated that they were uncomfortable at first, but now they’re ok with it, and they have named the occasion as `sport fucking`, which is fun and exciting. They also added that both partners had to consent to swinging and have a strong relationship.
It seems most individuals try and want to find their perfect partner but due to the stresses of living, expectations of living together and the fact that people perhaps don’t put up with adversity and empty `shell marriages` any more, we opt out and find an easier way of fulfilling sexual and emotional needs. Western society gives the impression that it is monogamous but at the same time they are tempted to cheat but also they are not so readily available to accept a polygamous society, because we are socialized to be possessive and jealous.
