I agree with prefontaine, that we are not seeing any shift towards disapproval of adultery. Any disapproval we are seeing is from a shrinking portion of adults who disapprove, along with the gleeful nasty internet piling on.

In fact, I think it is a window into the increase in how many people get joy from making other people unhappy.

Studies, while far from decisive, have shown a fairly consistent rate of marital infidelity over the past number of decades. About 1 in every 3 men and women. While this isn't a direct measurement of approval, it seems to me it indicates no increase in disapproval.

I stopped browsing the topic 9 years ago upon separating from my now ex, but my sense from dating and also watching my adult children's generation is that acceptance of non-monogamous relationships and promiscuity is on the increase.

In short, I think we are following Britain towards fewer traditional and faithful marriages.

Perhaps the one verse most often taken out of context.

Most certainly.
