iPhone application helps you commit adultery

The controversial website that helps people cheat on their spouses now has an iPhone application so you don’t leave any trace of your extracurricular activities on the computer.

Oy.

The president of Ashley Madison  (motto: Life is short. Have an affair) hit some talk radio shows this week to defend his website, saying that 679,000 men and women have used the service to contact a cheating partner this month alone, so clearly the need is there. (Another argument of his: In hard times, people planning a divorce simply can’t afford one.)

    I don’t think there is anything wrong with providing the service. The only people who are going to use it are those who are already looking to have an affair.

    SHame on the OCR for reporting this non-story! tabloid journalism!

    I disagree Ted. When married people who have never considered an affair like myself am constantly bombarded with ads encouraging this behavior, for many all it would take is a heated argument with the spouse and they’d check out the site. I have no idea how the site works but it purports itself to put your adulterous intentions on rails towards an inevitable end. Cheating on your partner isn’t ok. If you must eff around, just break up first.

    This really makes me sick, as well as having no hope for man kind.. Southern California especially. If this is the sign of the times where people start promoting being a wh#re, and committing adultery, and classifying it as okay then we are all going to hell in a handbag. This is the reason no one has any morals left. So many people think they have class cause they live the lavish life.. Well, you’re trash and I hope you are proud of what you have become.

    I disagree with greg & Kate. I love Lori’s human interest stories. Keep it controversial !
