I mean this is just chef's kiss. If you ever wanted insight into the level of beta leftist lunatics writing for that paper I just don't think this can be beat. I couldn't believe it was real.

I choose to firmly believe that every white male liberal walking around in this country either is or has a father who lets his wife bang other guys.

"Wife".

What a ****ing joke that these people co-opted the term "marriage" for their deviant lifestyles.

Article written by an "ethicist". Is this the 2026 version of Ann Landers or is the author writing about himself?

"Peak NY Times"?

They peaked decades ago. It was the paper you admired the most when you were a journalism major in the 1970's like me.

Outside of some East Coast and West Coast liberals, no one respects that newspaper anymore.

Well, to answer the headline…F*** No, you don't have to console her.

This must be one of those professors that will write anything to get in a "prestigious" paper.

The author of this article doesn't have a wife. He's gay.

The author is an elderly gay half English/half Ghana immigrant (legalized).

He styles himself as a philosopher and is a major spreader of cultural demoralization.

And he teaches philosophy at NYU. I'm sure he's giving amazing philosophical and ethical lessons to his students.

But while your sense of relief is unsurprising and while you can't simply resolve to feel otherwise maybe you could help her deal with her loss out of gratitude for her belated acknowledgment of your needs? Solace is one of the gifts of marital love. And consoling someone you love when they're in pain doesn't require that you share that pain.

Even though I wish that I could have better coped with a situation I rationally and ethically consider OK, it conflicted with something deeper inside me that I can't easily change.

Here is your first problem you f'ing ****. It's not rational and not ethical which is why it conflicted with something deeper inside of you. You've convinced yourself it was because you are a far-left wing mentally insane moron.

Consoling here would be delivering a falcon punch, if it were me. Granted, I would never be in this situation in the first place.

Note to Author: She wants out. Thought she might have found a better deal. Did not find it. Will keep trying.

The reality is that her side piece dumped her or was cheating on her with someone else.

These are terrible people all the way around.

You know it's not. This reminds me of something that would I see in the back of The Dallas Observer. They've run stuff like this for years and years. You could read about all kinds of depravity and absurd situations like this back in the day in their advice column. No idea if that is still around.

The left decided they would not accept the actual meaning of marriage and stuff like this is the inevitable result. Marriage is the foundation of civilization and they have built theirs on shifting sands.

You ask why the left seem insane on a large scale? I'd say look at how they treat marriage as a good place to start.
The best way to keep evil men from wielding great power is to not create great power in the first place.
