cheating

I thought this was a really interesting article.  There's there parts, so make sure to read them all.  (Also, she's got one titled "So, are we having sex yet?" which I really love)

This is a lot of what I was thinking when we watched Sex and the City (what a dumb movie.  I'm sorry to those who liked it, but I thought it was fantastically dumb).  Afterwards, talking about the movie, I happened to say that I understood a lot of where the cheating spouse was coming from.  He's a jerk and a douche and all, but I understand where he's coming from.
Anyway, read the blog posts.  Then wander back here and tell me what you think.  Is it every okay?  What would you do in the situation discussed in the post?  How do you handle inequalities in the sex drives of a married couple?
It's complicated.  It's interesting.  I'm not sure what I think about any of it.  Also not sure why firefox says every word in this paragraph is spelled wrong.  I don't know what to make of it.  What I do know is that my reactions now logically viewing the concept from the outside are probably vastly different than they'd be if it actually happened to me.  So yeah, basically confused, but curious.
