Controversial Web Site Reveals Cheating Men
Controversial Web Site Reveals Cheating Men

POSTED: 5:16 pm EST February 24, 2006
UPDATED: 5:34 pm EST February 24, 2006

A controversial Florida-based Web site allows scorned women to post warnings about cheating men to help other women, a Problem Solvers report revealed.

The report featured Amy Echevarria, who said she believed a recent boyfriend was her perfect match.

"Our relationship in the beginning was great; it was awesome, I mean, I couldn't ask for anything better," Echevarria said.

However, she said things began to sour.

"(He) didn't want to be around me anymore and wanted to go out with his friends all the time," Echevarria said. "(He) didn't want to be home."

1. Not a real problem,
as long as women would not mind an "equal time" site.

3. here's some lawsuits waiting to happen...justifiably so IMO
I post on an internet site that you are a liar/cheat/thief/pervert/molestor etc. I use information
that can positively identify you as being the person in question.

you can sue me for libel and damages to your good reputation.

bueno.

8. truth is a defense
in US courts against slander and libel.

Also, a lot of the ladies making the "cheater" postings are penniless (Often thanks to the very guy they're bad-mouthing). You can't get blood from a turnip.

Libel and slander are civil matters, where one private party sues another usually for money damages. A lawyer isn't going to take a contingent fee case against a defendant who can't pay the damages.

9. gotta love the truth defense

But there are still enough lawyers out there, someone somewhere will think they can do something to try to get a settlement.

4. Sexism comes in all forms
Keep 'em at each others' throats ... Separate But Oppressed.

As Pete Seeger once asked, "When will they ever learn? Oh, when will they ever learn?"

Sure, it was in a different context, but the lesson is always the same.

--p!

5. "Echevarria suspected her boyfriend was cheating"
"(He) didn't want to be around me anymore and wanted to go out with his friends all the time," Echevarria said. "(He) didn't want to be home."

Geez what a crybaby I really hope someone sues these idiots pants off, this is no better than someone making a website that list suspected child molesters, suspected drunk drivers, suspected murderers or even suspected witches.

6. People who out cheaters better have their facts straight
and be prepared to back up their claims too. Otherwise this site is just asking for lawsuits.

16. Who knows?
I can't act boorish enough to ever hope to get a second date, though.

Hey, I got an idea....When our female friends are soaking our shoulders crying about "I don't know WHY he does that to me!" maybe we should say "I dunno....Do you think it might be your technique? How about we try it and I can tell you what you're doing wrong..."
:evilgrin:

18. I had a SIL like that, she's now had about 10 years of miserable marriage
to exactly what she asked for, an abusive fat slob.

I on the other hand am 14 years in to a very VERY happy marriage with her brother, a helluva nice guy.

Let me tell you something about the women who go for those bad boys and give you a little backstory here as well. My SIL was a beautiful girl ten years ago. She dated lots of guys and always had a few in tow waiting for a shot. One of the guys she dated was a very nice and attractive pharmacist. Keep in mind, while she was a beautiful girl she also came with a good deal of baggage. She barely finished high school, did not go to college and had her first child at the age of 17. The pharmacist was very good to her and obviously cared for both her and her son - but she broke up with him because he was "boring". She married a drug addicted emotionally, sexually and physically abusive asshole. She has learned to cope with her unhappiness by becoming and complete and total FUNDIE.

My husbands ex-wife left him because he was too boring for her. She's also now a FUNDIE to the 10th power. Megafundie. Uberfundie.

See a pattern here? You just don't want a woman like that. Just be who you are and thank your lucky stars when insecure unstable women pass you by because you are "too nice".

19. I must be in the wrong pond, then...
Edited on Sat Feb-25-06 02:06 PM by BiggJawn
Because they ALL seem to be "insecure unstable women (who) pass you by because you are "too nice"."

They're either looking for Johnny Dangerous or they have some serious issues they want to take out on somebody with a penis.

Must be a Hoosier Thang.

13. If you REALLY want to know about your man...
check out those sex/swingers personal sites. A friend and I found not one, not two, but THREE of her boyfriends had been registered there and looking, at the time of their relationship (all exboyfriends now). We found other people's husbands on there as well (then you're faced with whether you tell your friend or not). You'd barf if you saw all the married men on there looking for sex hookups... Don't need a site like the one in Florida. You can do your own sleuthing. (and why do men think that they can attract women by posting nothing but a photo of their penis?) Do they really think women (who are not in the business of promoting a sex business or website) are cruising the internet looking for sex? It's pretty creepy stuff.

15. I thought women were looking for guys with a sense of humor
anyhow. Guys who just show their dicks reveal a fatal lack of the satirical sense. And a faulty sense of timing which ALSO reveals a deficiency of the humor gene and also a lack of knowledge of the fact one must not be too obvious. Ah, but such subtleties are lost on those oafs.
