Smart Women, Stupid Men

Posted by R. Eason Posted on: 07/11/08

Smart Women, Stupid Men

Why do smart women tolerate stupid men?  What qualifies as a stupid man?  A man who has a beautiful wife, healthy children, a successful career yet risks it all for sex with unsavory women, young girls or professional prostitutes.

What takes these women so long to pack their bags up and leave?  Devotion to family?  Do so many women really disillusion themselves to believe that their children can't feel the tension in a dysfunctional family and instead decide it's better for the child if the wife stays with her louse of a husband? 

Christie Brinkley should take a break from men.  Four divorces should motivate her to take a pause from her romantic life and begin to ask herself why she constantly chooses the wrong men. On second thought, maybe these women aren't so smart after all.

Cynthia Rodriguez has boldly waked down the street, arm in arm with her husband, Alex, the day after the New York newspapers announced yet another affair with yet another stripper.  With a broad smile on her face, she has thumbed her nose at the public's interest in her personal life and defiantly stood by her man.  Now she is conducting interviews with those same papers, namely Cindy Adams with the New York Post, attempting to look like a martyr (for her children's benefit) and victim (for the public's benefit) all at the same time.

Silda Spitzer. Karlita Kilpatrick (wife of disgraced Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick). Hillary Clinton. Kathie Lee Gifford.  The list of smart women who tolerate philandering husbands goes on and on.  And if history is any indication, the list of high profile married men to be caught in a sexual scandal will continue to grow.

What lessons are we teaching our young girls and boys?

  • Women are not so quick to leave legally binding relationships due to the divorce laws. Divorce courts are concerned only with the financial status of a relationship and adultery has nothing to do nor is it a consideration with the terms of any settlement. In fact, the courts don't want to hear anything about adultery! Reality dictates that the 'no fault' divorce laws are just that. No one is held accountable for any actions taken by one party to destroy the legally binding agreement made between two people in the name of marriage. Therefore, women lose a great deal when dealing with the existing divorce laws. These divorce laws were primarily established during an era in the '60's when women were gaining a new voice and desire for independence. Unfortunately, such laws were written to provide an unaccountable bargaining power for men, who were at that time statistically more apt to commit adultery than women. Sadly, women are still paying for these 'no fault' laws.
