I’ve been asked repeatedly in the last few days, “Why would a man who has everything—A beautiful wife, loving family, a fortune estimated at $1 billion—endanger it all to have affairs with women th...

As we are flooded again with news of Tiger Woods, it is a good time to consider what lessons there are to learn about men, infidelity, sex, addictions, and life.
JedDiamondPhD Scribbled:
I like Tiger, too. Its clear to me that Tiger has a problem with his his sex and love life. I wrote a book called Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places: Overcoming Sexual and Romantic Addictions, which showed the effect of sexual compulsion.
JedDiamondPhD Scribbled:
Tiger is finally beginning to come clean about his sexual problems. I wrote a book, Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places: Overcoming Romantic & Sexual Addictions. He may want to read it. I'll post some when I return from my conference.

Thanks to my subscribers, new and old, who continue to follow my work and offer comments and feedback. I continue to be at the Evolution of Psychotherapy conference with 8,000 therapists from around the world. People like Deepak Chopra, Andrew Weil, Jean Houston, Kay Jamison, and many others are offering their latest thoughts on healing ourselves and healing the planet. I'll share more later.

Enjoyed reading this interesting article. (female reader)

April, Glad you found it helpful. I find that the more women understand men and the more we understand ourselves, the better our relationships can be. Hope other women find this article a valuable way to better understand the evolution of manhood.
PrincipeMarketing Replied:
Yes, I realize more and more the since my divorce 6 years ago, it is important to any relationship to understand the other sex. The more you understand each other the better the relationship will be. I love your work keep up the writing.

Excellent article, Jed. A great read for guys like myself, who have commited transgressions and at times felt like it was uncontrollable.
JedDiamondPhD Replied:
Charles, Glad you liked it. People like Tiger can help us all to better understand the temptations that pull us and the ways we can all make it easier to follow the path that nourishes our hearts and souls.

I'm seeing the light now. I can approximate the reason why Sisyphus keeps on rolling the stone uphill. I pity Zeus unable to contain his urge to be moral and god enough before the company of lesser mortals. I've printed a copy for my Friday Boys Club to read. Many, many thanks, Sir!
JedDiamondPhD Replied:
Sounds interesting. What's the nature of the "Friday Boys Club" and where are you from. I reach out to men (and women) from all over the world and its always nice to see where we connect.
duponthumanite Replied:
It would be interesting to know about the Friday Boys' Club. Where I live there are Mens Sheds, where the men can work and talk and generally have their own place.

I've read about the Irritable Male Syndrome somewhere before. I had never read about the Y gene pairing with itself. Point 4 is especially interesting.
JedDiamondPhD Replied:
Glad you found the article interesting. My last book, The Irritable Male Syndrome: Understanding and Managing the 4 Key Causes of Depression and Aggression helps men and the women who love them to deal with the hormonal, physiological, psychological, sexual, and spiritual changes so many men are experiencing today.

Thanks for all your comments. Its what I love about Scribd. Post something interesting. Have it read in minutes. Get insightful interesting comments and "stars" immediately. To clear up a few things. Genes don't really "want" anything. They are just DNA. But we have evolved such that our behaviors are in the service of our reproductive success. Men's and women's reproductive strategies ar

Extremely well-put, Jed. Thanks
JedDiamondPhD Replied:
Helen, Thanks for your comment. Your feedback is always appreciated because you read (and write) with passion and an expressively critical eye.

Some would then argue that if this is the way we are then going against it is going "against nature." Thus it is unreasonable to impose monogamy on males. Because many think that nature is best, they won't accept this explanation.
sarita brown Replied:
lots of men are monogamous and lots of women are not.. this is a biiiit of a sexist conclusion, my dear!!
Phantomimic Replied:
No, no, it was not a conclusion; I said some people would think like that. Not, me, I am monogamous and heck, if I weren't my wife would kill me anyway!
Adventure Gal MiMi Scribbled:
Congrats Jed, Featured and wonderfully presented!
JedDiamondPhD Scribbled:
Its always an honor to have an article featured on Scribd, particularly one that deals with a controversial issue such as sex, betrayal, and the evolution of desire. I look forward to your comments and feedback.
rayanda Scribbled:
Way to go, Jed!
kathleenfitz Scribbled:
very interesting and timely
JedDiamondPhD Replied:
Kathleen, thanks for the comment. I see too many people who have a difficult time accepting the power of our evolutionary-based brain functioning that leads to actions that we may not like, but are understandable. I've found the more we know about the true nature of "males" and "females" the better chance we all will have in creating the kind of long-term relationships we all desire.
