Description
This book offers a unique insight into men's experiences of infidelity and masculinity. It reveals that men's motivations for outside relationships are not driven by a desire for sex or variety, but rather to soothe their egos, receive validation, and cope with feelings of emasculation.
Using data from an online dating service, the book provides a sociological analysis of male infidelity, shedding light on the complex emotions and psychological needs that drive this behavior. This in-depth study will be of interest to those seeking to understand male infidelity from a sociological perspective.
By examining the inner workings of men's intimate relationships, this book provides a fresh understanding of masculinity and its relationship with sex, validation, and emotional expression.
