As the old say goes, "If every one was jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge, does that mean that you should also?"

Lets look at what is going on, You have united with a spouse that you have declared your undying love for, to honor and cherish until death, in other words a life long partnership. Then you turn around and commit a lie (the undying love part, remember) against this person who you have pledged a life long commitment to. And possibly drag home a disease to 'share' with the one you promised to Honor...

I find that a little bizarre no matter what your position is, public servant or private sector.
