Want to cheat on your boyfriend? There’s an App for that! 

No, seriously. There is.

As infidelity rates increase between committed and married couples, technology has found several new and disturbing ways to keep up. Tech-savvy adulterers have moved from the naughty chatrooms of the 90s to using the iPhone and Blackberry apps of the new generation. With this, cheating has shutdown, rebooted and upgraded itself to become even more easy and available; it has developed into “cheating 2.0”.

AshleyMadison.com, a website that prides itself on being “The worlds leading married dating service for discreet encounters” has been a part of this illicit craze from the beginning. Now with phone apps (complete with no electronic history trail), AshleyMadison.com has more than doubled over the past year, now with over 9, 870,000 members. According to the dating profiles as documented by TIME Magazine, 92% of males and 60% of females joining the AshleyMadison.com community are married or otherwise attached. Most of the site is made up of men, but women users have doubled since its launch in 2001. Biderman, the CEO of the site admits to TIME Magazine that he would be “devastated” if his own wife used the website. He is convinced, however, that “people cheat because their lives aren’t working for them…No website or 30 second ad is going to convince [them].” Read More »

Your boyfriend is in the shower and you venture over to his computer to check your Facebook only to find that he is already logged in.  Usually you would just log him out (or so you say) but this time, you can’t help but notice he has been “poked” by an ex-girlfriend.  You freeze.  You consider your options: sign out and go about your business, or sort through all of his inbox messages to see if there is any other incriminating evidence.  His buzzing Blackberry a foot away only fuels your temptation farther.

To snoop or not to snoop?  It is the question we have all been faced with.

Obviously, if asked whether we “spy” on our significant others, we hastily reject the notion because clearly we’re not one of those “psycho girlfriends.”  But admit it, you’re guilty on at least one account.  However, if you had probable cause, and your unlawful search and seizure did lead you to evidence unraveling your case, you may be able to use the self-defense plea. (OMG, I need to stop watching Law and Order marathons…)

We all know there are different levels of snooping. Reading text messages while pretending to play Brickbreaker on his phone is not as punishable as hacking into his Facebook daily.  And neither pale in comparison to installing spyware on his computer that will track his activity for you to later sort through.

So where is the line drawn? Is some level of snooping OK or should it be completely off-limits?  Read More »

I was tucked into bed on Wednesday night (well…technically Thursday morning since it was 1 am) flipping through the channels on TV to decide on a good bedtime story for my roommate and I.  After the usual Sex and the City disappointment, “UGH we JUST saw this episode” we were thrilled to stumble across our second favorite show: The Millionaire Matchmaker. Using commercial breaks as bonding time, we typically do not take much notice to the commercials.  But while gossiping about our latest drama, one particularly racy commercial caught our attention again and again and again.  It was a bit confusing, but it aired at least once during every break.
