I think this is the line that people are mostly objecting to.
How would you like it if we suggested that your wife might be getting it someplace else for whatever reason (I dunno, say she'd like to have sex with someone less aggressive and more sensitive for a change)?
Yes, I'm being deliberately provocative, to make the point that no-one likes a virtual stranger to start handing down their (unsolicited) opinions on their relationships, based on a set of values not necessarily the same as their own.
Also, to do so with a post natal woman is just asking for trouble. Had it occurred to you that their MIGHT be something more serious going on here? Like, say, post-natal depression (although to be honest, in this case I doubt it) and that you sticking your oar in could actually contribute to making an unhappy situation worse?
Yes everyone's entitled to freedom of speech but if someone were standing on the edge of a cliff considering jumping, it might not be socially responsible to go over and suggest their partner is cheating on them. My point is, that you have NO IDEA what's really going on in people's lives here at Pixies so it's best to tread VERY carefully.
Anyone, who's been on Pixies for a while knows I'm not talking out of my arse here, and that things like this DO and HAVE happened, so if we older members seem to be jumping down your throat and being over-protective of someone whom we feel might be emotionally vulnerable THERE'S your reason.
