Capitol of the Nation .... for cheating?

So, you know I'm not a huge fan of cheating and all that goes with it.  But did you know that Washington, DC has been proven to be the highest per-capita in CHEATING?  I have to say it's not surprise to me, but it's interesting to see the actual data.

According to the website Ashley Madison (whose tag line is actually Life is Short, have an affair) Washington DC has 38,000 registered users on their website (of a total 13 million registered users).  On the average, 30 NEW members sign up every day from DC - peaking on Monday (guess their weekend didn't go so well)

Apparently, Ashely Madison's CEO (what a job, I wonder if he can keep down a marriage?) said, "Simply put, the more successful you are, the more prone to cheating you are, and Washington is full of successful people looking for something outside their marriage."  

The CEO says that people who are successful take professional risks that obviously pay off.  They translate this to their personal life.  Also, business travel, etc provides for many opportunities for cheating. 

Lovely, I'm glad that Washington, DC got this "honor"  But we cannot share this on our own!  Here are the top 10 cities:

1.  Washington, DC
2.  San Antonio, TX
3. Phoenix, AZ
4.  Salt Lake City, UT (This one surprised me - guess those religious types aren't living by their vows!)
5.  Oklahoma City, OK
6. Pittsburgh, PA
7. Boston, MA
8. Chicago, IL
9. Dallas, TX
10. Orlando, FL
