A few inconvenient truths about men and cheating. Disclaimer: This is from a very male perspective.
Cheating has been analyzed through a never ending stream of expert opinions and "why men cheat" books and articles. Overwhelmingly, the barrage of cheat-lit takes the much needed stance of helping women either demonize or empathize in addition to ensuring women that there's something that can be done to prevent a man from cheating. Not this article.
And then it's up to the ladies to disinfect the Smush Room. Life is so fair!

5 Reasons your number doesn't matter: There's been a lot of talk about "sex numbers" this week thanks to Anna Faris' new movie, What's Your Number? We here at YourTango are even running a contest where, if you tell us how many people you've slept with (or your "best ex") you can win autographed goodies from the film. I couldn't bring myself to write my number.
The hilarious star of 'What's Your Number?' covers all the juicy goodness with us!
The adorable Anna, 34, who you may recognize from 'The House Bunny' and 'Scary Movie,' invades theaters this Friday in her first rom-com, which goes by that very title: 'What's Your Number?' She plays a young woman named Ally Darling who figures her number of sexual partners (twenty) is way too high. In a vow to not hook up again until she finds true love, Ally sets out to re-visit her exes to see what went wrong, and if one of them is, in fact, "the one."
We're going to bet some of them are being hypocritical here.
According to a new survey conducted by Her Campus Media, 55.3 percent of college guys in America think a girl is "slutty" if she's had 10 or more sex partners. This is compared to only 33 percent who said a girl's "number" doesn't automatically make her a slut.
But the good news is, at least the other 50% are truthful!
According to the 2011 Great Male Survey from AskMen.com, half of men lie about their number of sexual partners. At least the other half is being truthful.
Too many and you're a slut, too few and you're virginal? What is the perfect number that will keep you in your partner's good graces? YourTango Experts and best-selling authors Lisa Steadman and Charles J. Orlando discuss when is the right time to tell someone how many sexual partners you have had. Find out more!
