The Relationship Show with Dr. Wendy & Miss Jenni

Episode 12 - “Ashley Madison Hack, Part 1: The Impact of Affairs, Technology, & Schadenfreude on Committed Relationships”

Due to hackers exposing millions of AshleyMadison.com users, recent conversations around the globe have been more focused on technology and infidelity in committed relationships. Are online sites like Ashley Madison just the new personal ads?

What constitutes an affair? Could even fantasizing become forbidden fruit? Is sexual monogamy the only way of expressing loyalty and commitment in long-term relationships? Should a partner’s infidelity always be a traumatic event or is un-monogamy just another untamable part of human nature?

In this episode, Dr. Wendy and I are joined by Candace Dale Mckenzie (www.candacemckenzie.net) to take a closer look at the potential impact of the Ashley Madison Hack and the psychological consequences this cyber crime might have on modern romance.
