New father is slammed after admitting he can 'see why men cheat'

A new father has been fiercely slammed online after he admitted that he can 'see why men cheat' while complaining that his wife has 'completely ignored his existence' since welcoming their baby.

Dad-of-one Scott Tyler recently sparked a slew of criticism after he took to X, formerly Twitter, to share some of the 'challenges' that he's faced since becoming a parent for the first time.

He claimed that the hardest part of having a newborn in the house was how it has impacted his romance with his partner.

He voiced his frustrations over his spouse not 'acknowledging' him or getting 'intimate' enough with him since the birth of their child.

He also said he understood why other men become unfaithful to their wives after welcoming a baby - and his confession led to him receiving immense backlash on the platform.

'My first is eight weeks old. I can see why men cheat at this time,' Scott, who has since deleted his entire account amid the scrutiny, wrote in the post.

'My wife completely ignored my existence for the first few weeks and we had to have arguments to get her [to] even acknowledge me, not to mention be intimate.

'That's the biggest challenge. Baby is easy.' 

Since his entire X account has been taken down, the post is no longer visible.

However, screenshots of it have been circulating online - and people all across the web were left furious over his claims.

'Your newborn is eight weeks old. Women are told not to have sex until the six-week mark,' one user pointed out. 

'So you're openly admitting to IMMEDIATELY pestering her for sex after she just pushed out a baby, and then saying you see why men cheat? F**king loser.'

'Don't have children with men like this,' someone else wrote.

'This self-pity mindset is unbecoming a husband and father,' added another user.

'My dude, I guarantee you that your wife was also neglecting her own existence and needs for those eight weeks,' read a fourth tweet. 'Newborns take 130 per cent of everything you have to give them.' 

'Ladies, can we make a pact not to reproduce with such men? Jealous of his own child and blaming his wife for looking after his kid that she just grew for nine months and then gave birth to...' a fifth said.

'So you pressured your wife into sex against medical guidelines for her healing?' asked a different user.

'This is insane levels of narcissism,' scathed someone else.

'Damn sucks for his wife to have to suddenly care for two infants at the same time,' another person sarcastically wrote.

'That's how toddlers act when they get a new sibling, not fathers and husbands,' announced one angry X user.

'If you have the energy to cheat at or before the eight-week mark, then you have the energy to run laundry, clean the house, prep some meals, babyproof everywhere, and give her a much-needed break for herself,' wrote another person.

'This is a big life change and you need to adult up, not worry about your [penis].' 

American Pregnancy Association previously stated that 'most caregivers recommend waiting about four weeks after you give birth' to have sex.

'It's definitely not safe to have intercourse involving penetration until at least two weeks after delivery,' the organization added. 

'During this time, you're usually still bleeding and at risk for a hemorrhage or uterine infection.

'If you have stitches, though – either from a C-section, a perineal tear or an episiotomy – it's likely that your caregiver will advise you to wait until after your six-week postpartum visit.'
