Eliot SpitzerEliot L. Spitzer -  American lawyer, politician for Democratic Party, State Attorney General for New York and Govenor of New York from Jan 2007 until March 17, 2008 - announced his resignation as New York's govenort for "private failings" - (?!)

Or was it the article in New York Time's reporting he had paid for sex with a prostitute? - Still under investigation by the F.B.I.

Adultry, Prostitution and Pornography on the Rise - The West is Lost For A Solution.

Only Islam has the answer for men's infidelity: Take another wife (it's honorable and halal)

A high-profile man gets high-profile press for buying high-"price sex" - Now it's time to ask serious questions:

Why do men cheat on their wives? Why do married men pay for sex? Why can't they contol their sexual urges?
The answers to these and many more questions may be more complex than you think.

Some men are just cheaters - think: "Bill Clinton", :Eliot Spitzer" and related stories. But even so-called upstanding citizens, like Eliot Spitzer, show how low they can go. So, why do otherwise faithful men break their sacred vows of marriage for a fling in the sling?

 

The answer may seem simple at first (if he's not being satisfied at home, he'll roam the neighborhood). But the reasons are a little more nuanced than that.

Some guys are simply serial cheaters - think about the trail of rumors that followed Bill Clinton into the White House. But other guys, like Eliot Spitzer, seem like upstanding citizens until wham, bam, thank you ma'am, they show exactly how low they're willing to go. What is it, then, that triggers a normally faithful man to cross the line from from being committed to breaking trust, from home cooking to ordering out?

Power (or Cash)

It's not to say that entry-level men who make minimum salaries don't cheat, but it's also pretty clear that powerful men with the means to withdraw hefty sums of cash (for hotels, gifts, prostitutes) are often candidates. It's not just because they have more options; it's also because they think their invincibility in the office will also extend to their private lives, which they assume will remain private no matter how high-profile they may be. Arrogance is a form of blindness, after all.

A Sudden Change in Status

Maybe he hasn't been elected Governor, but has your guy gone from middle management to senior exec lately? Simply making the leap from corporal to captain can put a guy in a difficult spot - he's suddenly separated from his office crew, facing challenges at work that you may not relate to, and looking for someone to tell his woes to - even if it costs $1300 to get her to keep quiet and leave after he's seemingly unburdened himself.

The Family Circus

I'm not saying it's right, and I'm not saying it's fair, but some men can feel like they're last in the family pecking order once the gaggle of children dominates schedules, time, and his wife's attention. That doesn't mean that kids drive their fathers to cheat, nor does it mean that families are to blame. It just means that the situation can make some men more vulnerable to be influenced by...

An Unexpected Ego Stroke

A note from an ex, a compliment from a co-worker, a good rapport with a server at his favorite bar. If the affection in his primary relationship dwindles as time goes on, a guy's hormones can skyrocket when he feels the charge of a new woman showing some attention. Most times, innocent bantering is just that, but coupled with other triggers, the chemical reaction is a dangerous one.

Cyber 'Safety'

Plain and simple: The Internet has made it easier for men to feel safer-in everything from looking for dates and mates to sending innuendo-laced IMs to the hot coworker on the third floor.

The apparent safety of flirting in his own keyboard can build an unhealthy feeling that everything he's doing is OK, making it more likely he can slip into making some very stupid choices. An addictive personality only compounds the problem.

Islam has the answers for all of the needs of the human being if humans would just turn to their creator for His instructions and solutions to all his problems: "Surrender to God, Submit to His Commandments; Obey His Orders; Do it in sincerity; and above all, do it in peace" all of this together can be translated into English in a word "ISLAM".

In the case of men committing adultry, Islam overs men to marry two, three or four wives if he can be fair to them. But Islam does not allow any unfairness.

If a man takes a wife and desires to take another, he should be sure to treat them both with equal treatment.
