Why Do Men Cheat on Pretty Girls?
News reports today indicate that Sandra Bullock’s husband, a “biker dude” named Jesse James, had an 11-month affair with a heavily tattooed woman who’s currently soliciting her “modeling” career online.
Some news outlets speculate that Bullock is the victim of the “Oscar curse,” a strange phenomenon in which female actresses who’ve won the coveted award sometimes break up with their partners soon thereafter.
Since we don’t know the full situation of what should be a very private ordeal, we can only speculate on why men cheat on women. In particular, why do men cheat on beautiful women? If one compares the pictures of Sandra Bullock and her husband’s alleged mistress, one can clearly see that Bullock’s movie-star beauty far outshines her competitor’s.
But this cheating thing seems to happen to women, regardless of what they look like. Ethan Hawke cheated on Uma Thurman. Jude Law cheated on Sienna Miller. Brad Pitt may have cheated on Jennifer Aniston.
Beautiful women, apparently, are not immune to the problem of men cheating.
Therefore, it can be assumed that men cheat for the reasons already thrown out over the years:
1. They find something emotionally missing in their love life with their partner.
2. They feel threatened by their partner’s success, and cheating is a way to reclaim that power.
3. They feel emasculated by the woman they are with, and choose a less-intimidating woman to cheat with.
4. Men, in general, cheat on women more than women cheat on men. And that’s just the way it is.
Uma Thurman, during an interview with Howard Stern, says that she thinks that all men cheat.
Do they? What do you think?
