Cheating or not?

[LV426]

Think of this as a type of Freaky Friday thing except that this isn't someone who is related to you. One night you go to be you and the next day you wake up and you are no longer in your body. You could be in a man's body, or a woman's body, someone of the same sex or different sex. You may know them or you may not know who's body you now share. But the one thing you do know is that it is you looking out of someone elses shell.

So you have to take on their life, and maybe contact the person that is now in your body. But in their life they are in a relationship and that person still thinks that you are the other person. They want to have sex with you, but you are in a relationship with another person.


So, here is the question, if you in this other body, regardless of gender, have sex with another person while in someone else's body, is this cheating?

Yes it's cheating
and
Yes I'd do it

[Eldrakyn]

Who cares, I have boobs! Yay!

[DarkWolf]

I'd say yes, I personally like to think that the relationship is with the person, not the body.

Hmm... This one's interesting I always liked answering hypothetical questions... Let's see... What happens to the persons relations shimps body you are in now??? Should you ruin that one in prosute of your own??? Should you end up ruinging both and have to pay large amounts of thearapy bills afterward??? Well the last one could happen... I think... Of course in the same situation then if you're going to ruin that persons life... Cause I mean sure why not??? Well other then the fact you might feel bad afterwards... But anyhow I ramble... Is it cheating??? I would think so... But either way it would still be cheating... But maybe I'm getting it all wrong...

[Klark]

Well, I say that yes it is cheating, and the sad thing to think is, what if this other person doesn't give a damn and they have sex with your partner, does that mean your partner cheated on you? Even though they didn't know that it wasn't you inside your body? That's a toughie.....

No she's not cheating because she didn't know or mean to. It's like rape in that case. In the sense that she couldn't help it and its not her fault.

Eh, can't rape the willing, whether or not they are misinformed.

I think about it like this:
1) If you had a relationship in your old body, then yes it is cheating for you.
2) If not, then no, you aren't cheating.

Either way, the other person is cheating, but its just a case of mistaken identity.

Yes, I'd do it.

Besides, hows that saying go? Its not cheating if they are in different area codes? (Probably just a local saying, but you get the idea... Yes, we have no scruples here.)

It may ruin the relationship of the person if you don't. Also, if the person whom you switched bodies with tried to tell his or her partner that "I switched bodies," he or she will probably be dumped anyway, not to mention a brand new Strait jacket and nice guys in white coats to put it on for him or her.

[Teej]

I say it isn't cheating because if you completely changed on the person it could throw everything off balance. I think if that were to ever happen, you should resume things as if they were normal but try to figure things out when you get the chance.

[DeadDoll]

It's cheating because a relationship isn't formed only on a strictly physical bases, it's mental as well. So if you were in someone else's body and still had your mind then it would be considered cheating, atleast in my perspective.

[Rlib]

If a child swapped bodies with an adult, would a relationship count as paedophilia? If somebody swaps bodies with an animal and has a relationship with another animal is that bestiality? What if somebody considers themselves purely heterosexual and finds themselves in a body of the opposite sex - they could think of themselves as male but be in a female body which is attracted to male or they could still be attracted to females but be in a female body themselves?

If you believe in a divine power which determines morality, maybe this power prevents body-swaps from happening for a reason :)

[ThrasherCub]

Like so many other things in life, it is the intent in which it is done. Even if the person doesn't realize it's the wrong mind for the body, you do. You know this is not the person you are in a relation ship with. If you have sex, inspite of knowing this, you are guilty.

[Thought]

Another thing to think about. Suppose you have sex while in the other's body. What if the person they were/are in a relationship with enjoys sex with you more, or what if that's what happens with the other in your body.

It could totally screw up your/their relationship when you get switched back.

[WhiteCrowUK]

If I was in another body I think I'd take every opportunity to experience as much as possible from another perspective ... so sex would be a biggie yup!
