Well yes I suppose it could mean that women have become bigger cheating slags, but then wouldnt the lie "of course there is no one else" appear in the list.

Well no not really your point is invalid, as we hadnt any sort of indicator in a survey to back up that argument.

Maybe - but as a general rule men have cheated a lot more than women in the past - mainly because they had more opportunity! Times have changed - married women work, have more opportunities and are less likely to fear the stigma previously attached to cheating women!

Have you any proof of that "general rule"?

Simply the statement they had more opportunity doesnt cut the mustard, surely being stuck in an office or factory limited the opportunity to cheat, whereas the housewife at home had every opportunity to perform with all manner of tradesmen, (the plumber, window cleaner, binmen etc) or meet men when she was out shopping etc.

No proof at hand - just going from memory of various things I have heard and read over the years! Even today - most cases of cheating from people in the public eye, for example, seem to be men! Older men leaving their wives of many years for younger women - has been a common occurence for many years!

Arr well Womens Own and other magazines, TV programs such as Loose Women are aimed at a targeted audience, namely women, and they will tailor the contents to things they either want to feed to that audience or they believe that audience wants to hear.

I dont think they would be too keen to feed that other women do the dirty but would much rather blame the men so that there would be solidarity between the sisters of womanhood. Because women are after all sweet and loyal, although they can be tough and adaptable enough to survive in a mans world.

Do you think though its just possible that not every woman who was involved in an extra marital affair in years gone by was single? Or is it possible that not every women involved in an affair was lied to by the man as to his marital state?

I don't think women are sweet and loyal at all - but as you said it has generally been considered a 'man's world' and, as such, it has always been easier, both physically and psychologically (less stigma) for men to cheat! Men staying late at the office, going on a business trip etc - how many women with young children could get away with that!

We could go on forever like this - in the end I guess cheating is more to do with character than gender - but opportunity generally has a part to play, I think!
