These gut-wrenching, heart-warming tales of regret, love lost and love found, still move me to tears no matter how many times I watch them.

But political figureheads aren't the only ones who cheat. Look at Tiger Woods. Or Donald Trump. They all have two things in common. First, their infidelity. Second, their positions of power.
There is a legend—an accepted legend but a legend nonetheless—that strong-headed, career-focused women are very difficult to please in the head, heart and baby-makers. Some combination of stress, perfectionism and immaculately kempt hair (periodically in a bun so tight that it makes changing facial expressions nigh impossible) make us think that she hasn't been properly rogered in eons and would probably be a drill sergeant in the sack. As it turns out, common knowledge is mad wrong, yo.
The percentage of female rabbis and pastors is on the rise, and many women want to find Mr. Right. We talk to several women of the clergy who are looking for love but struggle on the dating scene.
