Cheating and Change
Macken discusses the possibility of change in individuals who have been unfaithful, highlighting that many people who cheated in past relationships do not repeat the behavior. He emphasizes the complexity of human fidelity by drawing parallels with animal behavior, particularly among socially monogamous species like gibbons, which also engage in infidelity. Ultimately, he suggests that while urges may be evolutionary, the choice to act on them is a matter of personal decision.In this clip
