A Theory

This is one of many, many theories I have. As someone once said, "If you have a mind, you have an opinion." In my opinion, most theories are in fact, just an opinion. So on to today's theory. Bbow and I were watching something on TV the other night. To be honest, I don't remember what because in reality he was watching it, I was reading next to him. Some female celebrity's face flashed on the screen and I remembered that her husband had cheated on her with their children's nanny.

The first theory I have is about the cheating. I believe people only cheat for one of two reasons. Either they aren't getting what they need from home or they are just morally dogs. Now, don't read that wrong. I am not saying that there is an excuse for infidelity. There never is. Period. If your relationship is lacking something then work on that aspect of the relationship and improve it! Do not go looking for a replacement. And if you are just morally a dog, then you have no business being in a relationship in the first place.

My second theory, and the one I shared with Bbow that night is why there is such a prevalance of men cheating on their wives with the nanny. The celebrity in question this night is known for being an extremely talented musician/singer and by all reports is actually a very nice person. She is also incredibly beautiful. So why on Earth would her husband be having an affair with the nanny? Here's my theory: Men are biologically wired to be attracted to the woman who cares for his home and family. Seriously. No, I'm not saying if you are a working wife and/or mother then your husband has the right to sleep with the nanny. Nor am I saying by being a working wife and/or mother you are inviting trouble or you deserve to be cheated on. What I am saying is when God created man and woman, He wired us mentally and emotionally for the roles we are born for. Men find it much easier to leave the children each day and go to work because that is the way they were created. They were suppose to be able to go out and kill dinner. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to go out and kill dinner, or go to war to protect the woman and children, if you were constantly thinking about those women and children and worrying about their welfare. Men compartmentalize the way they do because that is the ability God gave them in order to be able to do what they have to do. In the same way He wired women to find it very difficult to leave their children in someone else's care. God, in His infinite wisdom, gave women the desire to stay home, care for that home, care for her husband, and care for the children because, let's face it, someone has to do it!

Men are designed to be attracted to the woman who cares for him, his home and his children. So my suggestion? Be that woman of course!
