Hello, welcome to the commentary for Long Time Affair.
2
This is an interesting letter, I think.
3
So it's talking about basically two people, they're married.
4
So there's a woman and she's married to somebody,
5
a man obviously, and then there's a guy and he's also married.
6
But these two people are having an affair with each other.
7
And an affair is a relationship outside of a marriage marriage.
8
So if you have a girlfriend who's not your wife,
9
that relationship is called an affair.
10
Now we're saying with a woman or a man.
11
So they're having an affair.
12
It's been happening for a while.
13
So it's not a short thing.
14
It's a long-term thing.
15
And they love each other very, very deeply.
16
Unconditional love, they describe it.
17
Our roots are intertwined.
18
So their deep feelings are intertwined together.
19
But they're in their 50s,
20
so they're older, and they don't want to leave their families.
21
Maybe they have children, probably adult children,
22
and they don't want to destroy their families.
23
So this is kind of an interesting situation.
24
And I used this in my class here in San Francisco.
25
There was a very interesting discussion about this article,
26
and I think there were a lot of different opinions, actually.
27
I was a little surprised.
28
So some people thought, you know, oh, it's terrible.
29
They must end the affair and they're doing a very, very bad thing.
30
And that was kind of,
31
I would say that would be the normal American reaction,
32
the normal American opinion.
33
However, most of the students did not have that opinion.
34
And most of my students are Asian,
35
Japanese and Korean and Thai,
36
and most of them actually had very different ideas.
37
I would say about half of them said they should continue doing what they're doing,
38
but continue to be secret.
39
So they said, continue the affair because they love each other very much,
40
but they also love their families and don't want to hurt their families.
41
So they said, These students said,
42
just continue doing what you are doing,
43
but keep it a secret so you don't hurt your families.
44
So just continue going.
45
And they thought that this is not so terrible because these people love each other very, very much.
46
And it's not horrible.
47
They're not bad people.
48
So that was another opinion.
49
And then a final opinion was that they should get a divorce.
50
Each of them should divorce their families,
51
their spouses, and they should marry each other.
52
So they should stop this affair because they obviously love each other so much.
53
Maybe they don't have the same feeling for their wife or husband.
54
They should get divorced, each of them,
55
and then marry each other.
56
And that was the third opinion.
57
And those two opinions, those last two,
58
continue or get divorced, were definitely the most popular opinions in my class.
59
A little surprising to me.
60
And it showed me something that,
61
you know, this idea is very cultural.
62
The idea of having affairs and the idea of what is good or bad in marriage has differences in different cultures.
63
Not that anybody thinks, you know, encourages affairs.
64
Nobody was saying, oh, affairs are good.
65
Every husband and wife should have an affair.
66
Nobody said that.
67
But there were different attitudes about,
68
is it terrible a little bit?
69
Is it terrible, really, really horrible, bad?
70
Is it not so bad?
71
And that was very different.
72
Each individual had different opinions about that and I could see different cultural ideas about that too.
73
A little bit later, maybe a couple weeks later,
74
I was in the bookstore here in San Francisco down at Union Square downtown and I saw a book about this subject,
75
this exact subject, the cultural ideas,
76
cultural opinions about having affairs in marriage.
77
And I didn't read the whole book.
78
I didn't want to buy it.
79
I just kind of skimmed it.
80
I read it quickly.
81
I read the summary and I skimmed through it quickly.
82
But it had the basic idea that it's true,
83
that every country has different rules,
84
different opinions about affairs, whether they are really,
85
really bad or a little bad or if they're okay as long as they're secret.
86
There are many different opinions.
87
It talked about how in Japan there are different opinions,
88
that it's not horrible, but that it can be common among some men.
89
And how other places, you know,
90
they have the idea if the man pays for sex with a prostitute,
91
then it's not cheating, it's not an affair,
92
because there's no emotional involvement.
93
And so some cultures think,
94
oh, that's not so bad.
95
And other cultures think, oh,
96
it's pretty normal for couples to have an affair with somebody else,
97
but they should be very kind of secretive about it.
98
They shouldn't let everybody know, and it's not terrible.
99
And then it talked about in this book how America actually is quite different from much of the world because in America,
100
the opinions are very strong that affairs are horrible, terrible, almost evil.
101
And this is stronger than in most places in the world.
102
You know, many people have this idea,
103
but in America this idea is very,
104
very, very strong, stronger than in other countries.
105
That was interesting to me because when I chose this letter for my class,
106
I thought everybody would agree,
107
oh, this is bad, they should end it immediately, they're really bad people.
108
Because I'm thinking like an American,
109
I'm thinking that's what most Americans would say.
110
But in fact, it's not what most of my students said, not at all.
111
In fact, I think maybe only one student said something like that,
112
and all the other ones were less judgmental, less strong about it.
113
So interesting, very interesting.
114
It shows again how culture can influence our ideas about this quite a bit, about many things.
115
Very basic things, such as relationships,
116
are affected by culture, and often it's in a subtle way.
117
It's not obvious sometimes.
118
It's a little more deep,
119
those differences, but those differences are there.
120
And learning to communicate effectively is important so we can understand those differences.
121
And I don't think in these kind of cases,
122
these kinds of situations, there's no right or wrong answer.
123
God didn't write something down and we all must follow it.
124
I think that every culture has reasons for their beliefs,
125
and there are good and bad points to those cultural beliefs.
126
And, you know, I'm very much like this idea of not holding on to opinions too strongly,
127
because, you know, we never really know.
128
We can't ever really be sure about things.
129
So it's always good to remember,
130
even if we have a strong opinion,
131
it's good to remember that it's just an opinion.
132
And maybe it's good for us,
133
but maybe other people in other situations,
134
in other cultures, in other places,
135
with other circumstances, maybe our opinion is not good for them.
136
And it's always good to remember that.
137
I try to remember that.
138
I have strong opinions about things,
139
certainly about education and teaching and about many things.
140
And sometimes they're too strong.
141
And I have to remind myself,
142
you know AJ it's just an opinion it's not right it's
143
not 100% correct some God in heaven did not give you
144
this opinion it's just your opinion it's good for me it's good for my experiences
145
but in the end finally it's only an opinion and it's not good for everybody.
146
Alright, another issue about this letter,
147
this long time affair situation,
148
is the issue of a double standard.
149
And this is something we also talked about in my class and something that I feel very strongly about.
150
What's a double standard?
151
We've had that phrase before.
152
A double standard is a rule that is different for different people.
153
For example, a rule that is different for women than it is for men.
154
And we see this double standard everywhere in the world about having affairs.
155
I'm sure you know, and I'm sure you will agree,
156
that in most countries, if a man has an affair,
157
it's less serious than if a woman has an affair, right?
158
So a man is married,
159
and he has sex with another woman.
160
Maybe he pays a prostitute,
161
Maybe he has a girlfriend.
162
And, you know, in different countries,
163
we might think different things about this.
164
But we might think this is bad.
165
But in most countries, I want to say all countries,
166
almost all countries, most people will still have a little bit of an attitude,
167
oh, that's normal for men.
168
It's not so terrible.
169
He's a man.
170
But if we change the situation,
171
we have a woman, a wife,
172
she's married, she has an affair,
173
she pays a man to have sex,
174
or she has a boyfriend.
175
In most cultures, almost all,
176
we will judge the woman much worse.
177
She's terrible.
178
She's a prostitute.
179
She's a slut.
180
She's horrible.
181
Right?
182
It's much worse, much more negative for the woman than for the man.
183
that is a double standard.
184
I think it's wrong.
185
I think it's 100% wrong that,
186
you know, the woman, if she does something, she's terrible, horrible.
187
Everybody criticizes her and says she's a bad person.
188
But if a man does the same thing, oh, it's okay.
189
It's not so bad.
190
It's normal.
191
Or it's a little bad, but it's not terrible.
192
And that is a clear double standard we see that in almost every country I know of.
193
In my class discussion, everybody agreed in their own country,
194
this was a double standard.
195
In Thailand, if a man has an affair,
196
it's less serious than if a woman does.
197
In Japan, same situation.
198
In America, same.
199
I don't know about Europe.
200
My guess is probably same.
201
And that's not good.
202
It shows that, to be honest,
203
women are still not equal.
204
You're getting closer, especially in some countries.
205
In the United States, women are getting much closer to being equal.
206
In Europe, I'm sure.
207
In Japan and in many countries.
208
But there's still a lot of work to do.
209
There's still so many double standards about women where the woman is treated more badly or she's judged more harshly,
210
more severely, she's judged in a more negative way than a man for the exact same situation.
211
And of course we see this in working too,
212
that women are getting more jobs,
213
they're getting better and better jobs in the United States.
214
But still, if you look at the top,
215
the top of the company,
216
the president, the CEO, the very top officers, they're still mostly men.
217
If you look at the American government,
218
the senators, the congress people,
219
the president, of course, guess what?
220
Mostly men still.
221
So we still have this double standard.
222
But in politics, in business, in culture, everywhere.
223
So there's still a lot of work to do.
224
I think it's work that women have to do.
225
But I think men also have to realize this.
226
and they have to understand it and they need to help change it because it's something that affects them as well.
227
You know, if you have a daughter,
228
if you have a girlfriend,
229
do you really want her to be treated badly?
230
Do you really want her to have a double standard?
231
I don't, and I hope you don't either.
232
So it's a big issue,
233
this idea of double standard,
234
and I think that we see the double standard issue most strongly about sex when it comes to sex.
235
Sexual relationships.
236
That's where women really get treated badly and they get judged differently and much more negative.
237
A man has sex with many women.
238
Oh, he's cool.
239
A woman has sex with many men.
240
Oh, she's a slut.
241
She's terrible.
242
Same situation.
243
The woman is treated very negatively, very badly.
244
The man is almost admired, almost complimented.
245
It's wrong.
246
It's terrible.
247
and about affairs as we just discussed same thing a man has an affair oh it's not
248
so bad a woman has an affair terrible terrible terrible
249
so this is a double standard
250
that in the area of sex even I think we see
251
this a lot with even enjoying sex men are taught to enjoy sex
252
if a man really likes sex a lot it's great
253
and he's very passionate then that scene is wonderful he's a passionate man
254
But if a woman really enjoys sex and she's very passionate and very direct about it,
255
then she gets criticized a lot.
256
Sometimes she's criticized.
257
And so we see a lot of women who are afraid to enjoy sex or afraid to say they enjoy sex.
258
They're afraid people will criticize them.
259
Another double standard that we see with women,
260
especially in this area of sexual relationships.
261
So anyway, those are the two big issues I wanted to talk about.
262
one being the double standard that we see with women and men in most cultures, most societies.
263
And then the second thing was just the cultural differences from country to country,
264
region to region, about this idea of having affairs.
265
How bad is it?
266
Well, that depends on where you're from.
267
It probably depends on your age.
268
Many different things.
269
All right.
270
