About This Quote
This quote is totally true. Guys do get away with more than girls. And, according to this quote, they can get away with anything. Even cheating on you.
The reason why is because guys are perceived as more trustworthy than girls. And, when you look at the consequences of cheating, guys get away with it way more often than girls. Girls might get pregnant or other STDs if they cheat on their partner, but guys will just get away with it by blaming it on another guy, like saying they were drunk or whatever other excuse is handy at the moment.
