Ashley Madison website

1 in 25 men are estimated to be unknowingly bringing up children that aren't biologically theirs.

I'd be interested in a source here.

Not for my own benefit, of course.

You're probably right. Women tend to marry for men for security but are far more sexually attracted to 'bad boy' type men that excite them. 1 in 25 men are estimated to be unknowingly bringing up children that aren't biologically theirs. Given that most women would be a bit more careful with contraception if they're shagging about, you've got to assume that the actual rate of infidelity is very high.

I think you are 100% right

Apparently names are all over the web!

Really? I thought it was only available on the so-called "Dark Web".
What I want is an easy to use website where you type in a postcode & it tells you who's AT IT.

About 50% of the people I know I reckon, judging by the number of people - men and women - I know that are having affairs or shag about, and extrapolate that to account for the ones that I don't know about that have done a better job at keeping it a secret.

What was the point of publishing it there when not many people know how to access it? Defeats the object somewhat, I would have thought.

the "dark web" is something journalists say to scare politicians. the database is apparently available as a few gig download, probably on a torrent by now. though likely to be infested too. they've found government and business addresses through out, which is amusing

1 million Brits? If you discount those under-16 and over 75 that leaves c. 45 million people, of which about half are married. 1 million seems an incredibly high figure - 1 in 45, probably nearer 1 in 30 of married people. Surely not?!

1 - There is an awful lot of assumptions in that equation & 2 - You don't have to be married to use it.

1. Census. 2. I know, that's why I said 1 in 30, not 1 in 22.5.
