The thing that worried me most about
The Secret (reviewed on page 25 of the June
issue of en) was something said to the James
Nesbitt character's wife after his adultery
had been discovered. The pastor of
the
church said to her ‘You know it is a wife's
duty to keep her husband happy’, implying
that, if a man does not get sexual satisfaction
from his wife, he will
look elsewhere. In
other words it is her fault if he strays.
I don't know if the pastor actually said this
or whether
it was poetic
licence by
the
scriptwriter. Either way, it has to be said that
a man cannot blame his wife for his adultery
and vice versa.
