Yeah, I know you're all steamed up but consider it. Why is it almost all women cheat.

haha I like your picture,

anyway, cheating only happens if you allow it,

screwed you once, shame on them, screwed you twice shame on you! its not in the genes, chromosomes, not even in horoscope. before commit yourself to anybody, make sure that you know the person well, and dont invest too much til you haven't say the magical word, which is "I DO" =)

Not all women cheat. I know way more men who cheat than women. Read more into this answer part and you will find way more men who are out catting around. You can blame it only on one sex. Besides, once it gets to the cheating part, there was something wrong way before then. Men get to a point in a relationship where they are way too comfortable, they don't show their wife affection, give them attention, make them feel loved and appreciated, they take for granted that we are just like them. Women are emotional. Men have sex for the physical part (the getting off part). Women view it as a connection to a partner, a way that someone shows them affection. It's not primarily the act of sex, it 's the emotions involved.



I imagine you are not married. Learn from the things you find out here. Don't be so cynical. Marriage can be a faithful relationship between two people that have a true and deep respect and love for one another.

Jim Z. How ought to a particularly good mutation pass earlier to the certainly tribal strikes? Fly? You communicate regarding the ideology of the Out of Africa concept and then turn around and posit coitus between human beings that would, or won't have occurred and you have not one scintilla of information to assist that declare. So, Mathilda, prepared reality seeker has the main cogent answer right here. Flee from the " dark edge " ( anthropological incoherence ) and pass to the sunshine of technological know-how. How smart is the Y as a monitoring gene? Very!!! The lactose gene?!?! No you ought to not tell something from that gene different than who have been herders!!! I advise you evaluate your information on Monod's artwork with the lac operon. hence intercourse chromosomes are used. Did you think of that became into an arbitrary decision? And who cares that it unfold with the potential for greater motile sperm? it quite is a factor of the sexually selective interest plan.

And men don't cheat? Not ALL women cheat, just like women are told not all men cheat!



So no! Honesty and Faithfulness isn't only present on the Y chromosome, there is plenty of that on the X one too

I don't think that faithfullness or honesty are gender traits. I think there are a lot of PEOPLE in general that cheat. It's not only women or men. I think it's because society does not uphold the same moral values that we used to. Cheating, although it is not acceptable, is more socially accepted these days than in the past. And marriage unfortunately is not valued the way it used to be. It seems that most people are just off to please themselves and not consider the feelings of others.



On a personal level, I would never cheat. The thought of having someone else's hands, lips, etc. on me that aren't my husband's is not appealing to me what so ever. Also, if my husband ever cheated that would be the end of it. I would never put up with that crap and neither should you if you're in that sort of situation.

I highly doubt honesty and faithfulness is determined solely by chromosomes...



Both genders cheat. Whether or not one cheats more than another is anyone's guess.



The reasons (not excuses--there's no justifying it) people tend to cheat are:



1) Changes in quantity of sex.



Usually one partner's sex drive diminishes while the other's drive does not (or actually increases). This can be caused by stress, hormones, children, work schedules, activity schedules, etc.



2) Changes in quality of sex.



Let's face it: men warm up and cool down like microwaves and women warm up and cool down like crock pots. Constant 5-minute quickies do not a satisfied woman make...



3) Changes in perception of one another.



Men fall in love with their eyes while women fall in love with their ears. For women (and I know this will sound shallow), not keeping yourselves as physically attractive as in the past may alter the perception of the man. For men, going from being charming to farting in bed every night for a laugh is going to change the perception of the woman.



4) Boredom.



This is unfortunate, but it can happen, especially when one or both partners are predisposed toward low boredom tolerance (e.g.: people with ADHD or Bipolar Disorder).



5) One or both partners realizing that monogamy is not working for them.



Some people prefer the variety of different sexual partners, but are too ignorant to realize it before pursuing an intimate, monogamous relationship leading into marriage.



6) LACK OF COMMUNICATION!!!



BIG ONE! Passively letting #s 1-5 happen instead of talking about it won't help. Aggressively belittling one another because of 1-5 won't help either. Passive-aggressiveness is even worse...that just frustrates the other even more now that they have to decipher cryptic messages...



Be assertive! If the sex is drying up, ask about how the person's feeling. Encourage communication as well as consequences for lack of communication!

I have been cheated on by both my 1st and my current husband. Both still lie about it to this day. I know they did because the first gave me a gift of cheating that keeps on giving until you see a Dr.



And the current was caught just before they began to touch. (Only if I had been one minute later.)



I did lightly cheat on my first out of the need for attention. And I am pleased to say I have never cheated on my current husband. I wonder why.

Almost all women don't cheat! But the majority who does come to find that they are dissatisfied with who their with either in the early stages or later stages of the relationship! Unsure why they don't just leave or say 'its over' rather than cheat. Perhaps its because they want to outweigh their options.

Huh? Women are not the biggest cheaters. It would be men..they cheat just to cheat. Women cheat when something has truly gone wrong in the relationship and she is tired of talking about it. Or he is cheating and she knows it. There is always a reason to why women are cheating and it stems from him.

Are you kidding? Men cheat all the time also. But it is not ALL men or ALL women cheat. You just have to be careful, and find the right one.

I can honestly state that I have never cheated. Not in middle school, high school or beyond. Sounds like you have chosen some bad people and were burned. Sorry about that.
