Lord have mercy, let's just bury this topic. There's no way to prove what somebody is likely to do. One can only provide conjecture based on your own personal experiences. Let just say this:

Women will say: Men are more likely to cheat. Women cheat too, but only when the relationship is emotionally over.
Men will say: Women are more likely to cheat. They just hide it better.


so fucking true.

I think it's equal.

I've known several women who cheated on partners. I have a girlfriend who has cheated on every guy she has ever been with. rolleyes

I can only think of one guy I know who told me he cheated on his partner. And most of my friends have been guys.

Both sexes cheat.

Just for the record, though, out of the 5 more meaningful relationships I've had in my life (I'm not counting any casual/"a few dates" type situations here), 3 of those guys cheated on me. I have never cheated on anybody.

But I think the guys who cheated on me DON'T represent guys in general or prove any point about men cheating more than women....I think those guys represent the poor choices I made in guys during that time of my life. I **picked** the type of guy who was a cheater and/or a liar and I was the one who stayed with them and allowed them to treat me the way they did (I suspected the cheating and would willingly swallow the "Oh no! I would never cheat on you!" crap I'd get when I'd confront the guy/s about my suspicions).

Cheating isn't an issue that can be tied to gender. WHY the cheating is done, I think, is different between men and women - GENERALLY SPEAKING.

But cheating, on the whole, is very subjective and the reasons why someone cheats can really only can be attributed to the INDIVIDUAL CHEATER and their own personal character and integrity (or, technically, their lack of such).

I love this place.


lol Maybe he thinks I'm a dude or something? hmm smile


You seem to get that every once in awhile around this place, don't you? wink

I would think maybe he thinks you're a dude but then he continued on to ask if you were a feminist. I suppose a man can be a feminist, technically speaking, but I assume most people equate "feminist"=female. So I don't know what he meant! confuse lol

I don't know. All I know is YOU BETTER JUST QUIT GIVING MEN A BAD NAME, CALHOUN! :::shakingfist:::

wink lol

The definition of adultery is:

Adultery:
Main Entry: adul•tery
Pronunciation: &-'d&l-t(&-)rE
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural -ter•ies
Etymology: Middle English, alteration of avoutrie, from Middle French, from Latin adulterium, from adulter adulterer, back-formation from adulterare
: voluntary sexual intercourse between a married man and someone other than his wife or between a married woman and someone other than her husband; also : an act of adultery.

So by definition wouldn't it be equally? Every time a person, man or woman, cheats on their spouse, the person they are commiting adultery with is also commiting adultery.


By definition it would appear to be equally IF adultery only occurred between heterosexuals.

The true answer would also depend upon the definition of sexual intercourse being relied upon and then whether a greater number of male or females engaged in same-sex adultery.
ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift.
