  • Robin Gibb Cheated on His Celibate Wife

    So here is a news story worth a gander. I'd love to see what you all think of it as well.

    A few notes

    Robin Gibb is from the "famed" group The BeeGee's




    His wife Dwina took a vow of celibacy..

    Dwina told Robin it's OK to go have sex elsewhere.. DOUBLE YOU TEE EFF?!

    His housekeeper- 26 years his junior- ended up pregnant, Edwina ended up infuriated..

    Dwina told Robin it's OK to go have sex elsewhere...yet she's infuriated he did?

    So here is the full story.. what do you think? Should Robin get the shaft? Does Dwina have a RIGHT to be pissed off because they had a baby together? Should a MARRIED person be able to take a vow of celibacy? Should she have divorced him to take her vow of celibacy?

    You really can't judge whether a married person "should be able to" take a vow of celibacy. Anyway, celibacy is about sex, not love. If she wanted to still have him in her life, but decided to become celibate, it only makes sense that she should tell him to find sex elsewhere, the idea being that the love might stay within the marriage even without the sex.

    I guess I'd be a little pissed too if he went and had a kid with someone else. Although it seems in the article that she trusted him not to fall in love with her friends (and vice versa), but I guess she doesn't trust the housekeeper that way (which is weird, since she lived in their house..).

    At least he isn't being a deadbeat about the baby.

    obviously the guys morals are completely fucked up. celibacy or not, you don't cheat on your wife/husband! she probably just said that he could have sex with other people cause maybe she felt bad for him, but didn't think he would actually sleep with other woman.

    this case is too fucked up. lol. basically, both people have fault in this.

    ...why the hell would you take a vow of celibacy if you're married?!

    I'm sure there's more to the story than we all know, but one thing I try hard not to do is judge someone's sexual relationships.  I often compare sexual tastes to chocolate: Some people like dark chocolate, some like white chocolate, and some people don't like chocolate at all.  I would never deign to criticize someone for not having the same chocolate preferences as myself, so why would I criticize a person's sexual tastes?  It would be interesting to know more of the Gibbs' agreement, though, if there were any.

    A married person is not supposed to deny their spouse.

    I would have to say that he's obviously retarded. Sure she may have SAID it was ok to find sex elsewhere..... but don't all women say a lot of things they don't mean?? I mean.. I guess if she really did mean it then she has nothing to be mad about. It wouldn't really be his fault he knocked up the housekeeper, he was just finding sex elsewhere right?

  • lilacros3s@xanga

    maybe the wife didnt expect someone to get pregnant although i dont think she has the right to get mad cause she did give the ok for her hubby to go elsewhere...what did she expect...


    i think theres something wrong if a wife or hubby takes a vow of celibacy and maybe its a religion thing (didnt read the article) but its definitely not good for the marriage.  it does make me think the definition of "cheating".  would it still be called cheating if your other half gives the ok kind of thing.

    Marriage isn't the piece of paper that connects the two people, it's the sexual intimate connection itself.

    The only reason someone should be celibate in marriage is for health or spiritual purposes, and it shouldn't be permanent by any means.  When you get married, it is acknowledged that sex is included and expected in that agreement.  If not, then we wouldn't think it a big deal when someone goes to another person for sex than their spouse.  This is so weird.  What are her reasonings for becoming celibate anyway??  If she quotes the Bible or anything, I'll be really annoyed because that is not anywhere in Scripture at all.  I'm not excusing his behavior though, that he actually took her up on her offer of get-your-sex-wherever-you-want...If he was that unhappy about it, I think it might be (might be) ok to divorce.  I myself am celibate, but I'm not married either...and when I do get married I plan on having lots and lots of sex.  I really am curious why she decided to become celibate after getting married.  It's not natural.

    Should Robin get the shaft?

    Why would he want to stay?

    Does Dwina have a RIGHT to be pissed off
    because they had a baby together?

    Babies can happen if you have sex.  Does she need some sex-ed?

    Should a MARRIED person be able to
    take a vow of celibacy?

    They can if they want to, but they should be ready to accept that their partner might not think it's such a cool idea.

    Should she have divorced him to take her vow of
    celibacy?

    That's for them to work out.  But if this was how she was going to react, then she probably should have divorced him.

    I think Dwina's biggest peeve was that he fathered a child and didn't tell her, she had to find out on her own.  The whole thing is really messed up.  She's been rumored to have been into several unusual lifestyles and religions.  I don't think she has a clue what she really wants in life, or believes spiritually.  I know for a fact she's not a Christian so I doubt she based her vow of celibacy on scripture.  If you plan on a permanent vow of celibacy, you shouldn't be married! If they have this great honest, loving relationship they say they have, Rob should have told her about the baby.  At least he is owning up to it and supporting his child.  I think they both need therapy, personally.
