[QUOTE="integrated, post: 1423909, member: 20607"] Man, I can't quite put my finger on exactly what it is about "cheating on me is part of her [B][I]identity"[/I][/B] but it's unmitigated, next level cringe. Maybe it's because everything is about "identity" nowadays - everyone and his dog uses it as an excuse to get offended, marginalise other identity groups, and justify the silliest of things. It's often merely an excuse to permit and/or succumb to the worst of impulses "because that's just the way I am/he is/she is." Or perhaps the off-the-scale cringe level is because this is a self-deceptive rationalisation used to feel better about the grim reality of this situation, when a better response would be to nope the hell out of there! It seems to be just an excuse to turn a blind eye to something which is, quite frankly, horrifying to anyone with even a shred of self-respect or masculinity. I really hope this guy wakes up and takes the steps necessary to reclaim his masculine power ASAP. [/QUOTE]
