Thank goodness the police have gotten these horrible criminals off the streets! They are much, much worse than the thieves on Wall Street that are stealing the American taxpayers blind and making millions and millions in the process. Our children are much safer now!

New Canaan house wives are totally clueless there are many men seeing high priced escorts in NYC regularly. As a 40 something man in New Canaan I am no longer shocked to hear from other married men quite openly about the lack of attention at home and the fulfillment they get elsewhere.

Right, blame the wives, everything is always their fault.

Men like "action". Deal with it. It's how we are wired.

Maybe the men are not hot enough. Maybe they're all bald and unmanicured and snore all night. Maybe the wives get what they need elsewhere because their husbands are ugly and bald (and short). It's just how some men are wired....

Or they are super hot like me. I've been banned from frozen food aisles in three nationwide grocery store chains. Makes shopping for ice cream a real challenge!

Bald? Not one bit.
Unmanicured? Manicured like Augusta National.
Snore? Yeah, when I'm sleeping on my back. I busted my nose playing football. Not when I'm sleeping on my side though. I'm considerate!

So, by your thinking, it's okay for the wives to stray too. Right? Send the good ones over to my pad asap!

Their next stop will be at the hospital to have their perma-grins removed by plastic surgery.

And in closing, if a wife's hubby is ugly, short and fat, don't you think that she should go see an attorney?

Let us all know when you can.

LOL! I'm sure you're the cutest guy on Patch!

MPM you are so funny!

I AM! If you don't believe me, just ask me.

BTW, I was banned from Hollywood for being too handsome and kicked out of the state of California. Whenever I go back there, I have to wear a mask looking like an everyday guy, not my awesome self. What a nuisance!

The majority of women in New Canaan, Greenwich and Darien are clones. I meet very few unique, non conformist women in either town as a female personal trainer. I hear every day how bored they are; how about volunteering to help those in need? Sad that the press needs to publish the name of this guy or any other person arrested for a non felony it is a private matter.

I FULLY agree that the women in these towns are all clones - everything from their voice inflecion, to hair, permasmile, to their gait while pushing the babystrollers, to the things they talk about (I eavesdrop shamelessly) - don't get me started on physical appearance. Even all the dogs are blond (labs and goldens)! I am not from CT and I am not one one of them - although I lived in Greenwich for 10 years and then moved to New Canaan and have lived here now for 9 years. I am definitely one of those unique, non-comformist types which I can never find to befriend. I feel most of the time like I am living in Oz.

Walter and Lucy Ann, with all due respect, I don't think cheating has a darned thing to do with looks in most cases . . . I have never seen a truly ugly person around here, for one thing - but for another -
it seems women - as long as hubby is around for weekend kid duty - are content spending their husband's money and getting together with their cloned girlfriends to keep them happy. Men on the other hand couldn't care less about that and are most interested in one thing (aside of golf) . . . per Walter's comment about action.

Just my two cents'.

Thank gosh someone said it. A large proportion of New Canaan women, just as many other women across Fairfield and much of Westchester Counties, are materialistic ice queens. Not to make a broad sweep and not to condone adultery, but both husband and wife often both play parts in infidelity.

@LucyAnn maybe the bald, fat husband is straying because his yoga-mat-toting, black-spandex-wearing wife is more interested in her personal trainer than she is in him. and maybe, his visiting a lady of the night is his rebellion against a wife who is superficial, shallow, and probably couldn't give a darn about what's actually going on in her husband's mind and life. and might i ask: what was the wife's true motivation in marrying the short, ugly, snoring beast? gosh, I hope it wasn't money.

one more thing: does anyone else think we should legalize prostitution?

No Lucy, men go to prostitutes because their wives are so busy with the kids and planning their social lives and getting together with their girlfriends and shopping and decorating the house and blah blah blah that they don't have any energy leftover to make 1:1 time with their husbands . . . or if they do, they go home and go to sleep, while the men are lying awake thinking of other things (to put it nicely) . . . That's why. It's easier and cheaper than having a girlfriend and much more discrete. Women are living in la la land if they think this doesn't happen . . . and what's more, they can stop it in many cases. Not all - there is always the unreformable philanderer. And look, I am not saying that men are excused from all responsibility or blame . . . just that let's be real and recognize that these men are not perverts in most cases . . .they are normal unfulfilled jackasses who cannot find a better way to deal . . . And again, attractiveness has nothing to do with it.

That sounds a lot like an accusation of some sort and I don't like it . . . I know a little about a lot . . . And I talk to many people who have many life experiences . . . I also do an awful lot of reading. And I also have eyes and notice a lot. It's not brain surgery, it's common sense.

I do not think we should legalize prostitution btw, Chris . . . You can't just legalize everything and assume it'd be less of a problem. Where exactly would the brothels go? Main St or Elm? Or maybe we can convert the Roger Sherman Inn? Ugh . . . think what that would do to NC property values!! :-P

Chris and Canaanite, you both sound very bitter.

Me? Bitter? LOL . . . Lucy, I don't think you're in a position to make judgements like that given that you don't know either of us . . . And "Bitter People of New Canaan" seems to be the topic of another discussion thread altogether . . . When someone does a story on that, go for it . . .

Canaanite, all of your comments have a bitter edge, there must be something about this story that is really getting to you. I reference your comments of May 6. I feel bad for you.

Please try to realize an entire family is suffering through this ordeal via the publicity -- especially the kids.

Welcome to the 21st century. News travels at the speed of light.

P.S. I think there is more than one family suffering this ordeal's publicity. A lot more. I have no problem with this type of business being legal. It works in Nevada and nobody seems to mind all that much. FWIW, I have never needed these types of services, but some folks do.

Thank you

Wow, this was the best comment page I have read in a long time. Very entertaining. I was laughing at some and in shock, jaw dropping at other comments. Then it got "mean" on the last few comments. When a couple gets married, don't they say in their vows, "To Love, Honor and Cherish Till Death Do Us Part?"
If husbands and wives can't keep these vows through their marriages, why do they get married? If there are problems in the bed department then they should talk about it to each other or see a sex therapist. If one of them refuses then get a divorce or better yet buy a blow up doll (divorce is too expensive). If the husband is working and supporting the wife and her luxeries then she should be greatfull and fork out. I wish I were that lucky.

Sorry, I ran out of room above and need to write more. I was smart and didn't marry my man. We have 2 great daughter's. I am glad I didn't marry him, because he turned into a totally different person. We are not living together now. So to me marriage is not for me because saying the vows doesn't mean anything to anyone now a days. We still see each other for recreation but don't have the marrital obligation. Most men like spice. Most Women get used to the money they can spend by their husbands earnings and feel they are owed that, yet not obligated to return the favor to the husband. Women also like the spice but men and women get into a routine that gets boring. SPICE IT UP OR BUY A SEX BOOK. As far as the comment made about writing a book about these comments, I already am and would love to use these opinions (names and a different location for these comments changed). This was great reading opinions. Walter, can I see a picture of you to see how good looking you are? But the man who lives in New Canaan who got arrested should not have had his name printed in the news. That was wrong. It is between him and his family only, not for us to throw stones at him. He was just caught trying to cheat, not caught in the act of it. It doesn't deserve your name in the paper. Women do it to. Keep a look out for my book when it is hopefully published and keep up the great comment entertainment. This page was the best.

Reading these comments has given me a good chuckle. I am a former Canaanite and I was itching to leave Fairfield county - the women in FF county are clones and growing up there was not easy, especially if you didn't fit the stereotypical profile of perfection. I also felt that nothing there is realistic, much like Oz, mentioned above. I also HATED that everybody knew everything about everybody - where's the sense of individuality?

Prostitution is legal in most countries in Europe - it's not abused and no one really thinks much of it. In Amsterdam, the Red Light district is almost a tourist spectacle. If prostitution is legalized, the prostitutes have to have regular tests to assure that they are healthy.

I think people need to get a grip, have fun, relax, accept that "perfection" does not exist - so what if the man tried to get it on with a prostitute? perhaps he wanted a bit of adrenaline? - as written above, he obviously wasn't getting what he needed and just happened to get caught with his pants down. If so many are meddling in others affairs, perhaps they need to find some of their own personal entertainment.

Mary:

I can't post a photo of me because if I did, your computer and many others would melt immediately because of my burning hotness. I don't need thousands and thousands of women banging on my front door and peering into my windows. My dog would be barking non-stop and the neighbors would not be pleased.

I am very considerate towards my neighbors.

Walter: Darn I wanted to see how good looking you are. Oh well. I guess I'll just have to fantasize about your looks. Do you by chance need a dog walker? That's what I do for a living. My own bussiness. Have a great week. Loved your comments on this page!!!!!!!!

In fact, I do need one once in a while. But, I don't live in NC anymore. I had to leave, I was tired of being pawed, stared at, stalked, fondled and groped by the local females aged 18 to 80. Even younger ones would ask me for my cell number so they could text me. I had to politely decline their requests.

Sometimes, I just feel like a slab of Kobe beef. It ain't easy being me, I gotta tell ya!

P.S. Just imagine George Clooney or some other matinée idol and multiply it by 20. Al Gore wants me dead, he thinks I'm the two legged cause of global warming but good for his business.

Wow, you sound like my ex. Very confident about himself. Still is. Oh well.. You are lucky you don't live here anymore. too much BS.

There is BS anywhere you live.

To Walter Knight, Canaanite, and all the other whiners. Life is tough. Living in a beautiful town, with attractive wives and the struggle to raise good kids.

Grow up and appreciate what you have.

If your wives are cold, look at yourself first. If your jobs make you angry and bitter, change your jobs. If the uniformity of it all bores you, try the uniformity of living in a bleak ghetto forty miles south of here.

But for God's sake, stop your whining about living a lifestyle that billions of people can only dream of.

Thom Harrow:

Where did I whine? I like my life. I liked my time in New Canaan. Please point it out for me.......I'm curious.

If a woman hasn't got a tiny streak of a harlot in her, she's a dry stick as a rule.
