Societies that have condoned male cheating and condemned female cheating are simply male-dominated cultures. Cheating is cheating, no matter who is doing it. It’s wrong.

About This Quote

In a society where women have very few rights and have been historically viewed as inferior to men, the temptation to cheat is greater for women. In a patriarchal society, a man is often more likely to cheat if he is in a position of power over his partner. In many societies around the world, women are still considered property of their fathers or husbands, and early marriage with a man promising to take care of her is often considered a way out of poverty or a way to secure a marriage with a wealthy man. As a result, many women become victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse.
