Or maybe it isn't logical. Maybe it's some primative drive to seek out the best genetic material and one isn't sure one's spouse fits the bill. No idea.

I've never understood this either. It's very easy to do and you'd think if you were smart enough to sneak around without getting caught you'd be smart enough to take precautions.

I also have never understood married couples who do not want more children but do nothing to prevent it. And don't get me started on the women who get pregnant on purpose to "trap" the guy - yea that's a great way to start a relationship - that'll work.

Also besides pregnancy there are those nasty STD's and HIV which can then be passed along to the innocent spouse.
