Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I... don't understand. I must be missing something or the question they asked must be skewing things or something. Infidelity means cheating on someone who you promised to be monogamous with. Breaking a major promise to someone just to give yourself pleasure is obviously immoral. Like, obviously. I could see people having different opinions about the level of its immoralness, but i can't imagine how someone could think it's not immoral at all.
Yeah and what does "not a moral issue" mean? It's asking a question about morality. I would suspect the question may have been translated differently into things like French for so many people to be confused enough to believe it's not a question of morality.
Yeha, this makes no sense.
This would make more sense if they were asking if open relationships are immoral.
I would assume it means having sex outside marriage. Not seen as a big deal on France. Big deal elsewhere, but its a spectrum. There are lots of promises we make, that we don't keep. Some are big, like infidelity, in most countries. Some are smaller and breaking them isn't immoral.
If you promise to pick up bananas on the way home and forget that's not a moral issue. I assume the same level of commitment is considered in France by some, for sex. For others, they may just accept infidelity as normal and just ask that its kept private.
"Not a big deal” doesn’t mean not immoral. Littering is not that big of a deal, but it’s still immoral.
And your banana analogy doesn't fit, because the person simply forgot to get bananas, infidelity doesn't happen because a person forgot that they were in a monogamous relationship
Your morals and the morals of >50% of French respondents obviously don't align.
That's not at all a certain conclusion, based on the other possibilities i listed that could've led to these same numbers. It's at least as likely that it's a badly constructed poll. There isn't even a source cited for this picture. As the science saying goes: garbage in, garbage out
Some countries don't find it that big of a deal. Different strokes, as the saying goes.
"Not that big of a deal" doesn't mean not immoral. Littering is not that big of a deal, but it's still immoral.
Yep, and I learned in my Freshman Sociology 101 class that morals aren't absolute.
Well life go on. Whether it's moral or not, the best thing you can do is letting go, we aren't tied to each other for life.
It's not a question of pleasure but feeling. Yes the unfilled promise hurt but that's not something you have complete control over. And we may make mistake and realize we prefer this and that. However, you have to talk and share to your so.
