A recent story in the London Telegraph reports that researchers are finding that women with larger chins are more prone to cheat than those with petite chins. The article is sure to start people talking and have spouses examining each others physical features, especially chins. The reason given for the chins was that testosterone levels are higher in those women. Although the article makes it sound like big chins are sure sign of problems, the reality is that many times there is a greater likelihood of risk-taking when there are large amounts of testosterone. Those partners that have histories of alcohol abuse often have higher incidence of affairs as well.
I would need to know more about the study and how many people were involved in it before I put much faith in it. The example they cite of Meg Ryan itself has some concerns. She claims that it was her husband, Dennis Quaid who cheated on her. The facts may never be revealed to the public. It does raise questions about whether the husbands of women with big chins have more affairs or are they attracted to women who like to have affairs?
I subscribe to the mindset that choices are made. Choices are made to have an affair. Choices are made as to how far an affair goes. People may attrubute the source of the affair to many different thing, but it does not remove their free will concerning choices.
