In American Culture Mistresses are not an accepted part of society?

But why?
of course mistresses are not respectable in my country but still accepted.. if a man has a mistress its not considering cheating or a reason for divorce.. its all very open.. the wife knows about it.. if a husband doesnt find his wife attractive anymore usually the wife helps him choose a younger and more attractive woman for his mistress..

I don't know where you got that information but it is not true in any part of the world that I know! Sounds like typical male wishful thinking! |

Well then, I'm glad I don't live in your country.
I feel sorry for any woman who has to live with a man who doesn't love her anymore.
And in this country, sleeping with another woman is considered disrespectful to your wife. |

So is it accepted for a wife to have a lover as well? If no why not?
American women have more respect for themselves then to allow their men to screw around and disrespect them. |

In American we take vows to love, honor, cherish each other in sickness and in health. We take a vow to remain faithful to one another for as long as we live. No where in our vows do we say if our husbands no longer find us attractive they have our blessing to find someone else. That is why a mistress is not an accepted part of society. |

Mistresses are not accepted.
If a man can get a mistress, he can get a divorce. In the legal battle of a divorce the woman can get all the support for the rest of her life that she would have otherwise had, but without the added cost of being married to a cheater. After he has paid for the divorce, alimony, and child-support then he can go after the girlfriends he wants.
The wife doesn't have to worry about surprise divorce, diseases, or loss of potential income or support because the husband is supporting the mistress instead of the wife. The husband knows he will lose his *** in the alimony and child support, so he does not abandon the first wife and kids. |

That's disgusting. When you marry someone you pledge to be faithful to them no matter what. Beauty is fleeting so if you marry someone for their looks than that means you're a really shallow person. Just out of curiosity do husbands get to pick young lovers for their wives? |
