| Probably women. They have more to lose. |

| 10000% women. Please don't call me a sexist for saying this but women are just more sneaky than men. |

More to loose? How so? If married both men and women are going to walk away with 50% if divorce happens so I don't think either has more to lose. |

Women generally still make less or have stepped back a little once kids are born, they face greater stigma for cheating, their DH is far more likely to leave them than give it a try than if the genders were reversed, etc etc. |

| The narcissist one in the relationship is probably better at covering their tracks. My ex wife would have won a nobel prize in cheating sneakiness if such a prize existed. But she is was an extreme narcissist and I think narcissistic people have mastered the art of sneakiness and gaslighting so they will probably cover their track better. It's not a gender thing. |

Women.
As an evolutionary matter, women who were bad at covering their cheating did not survive. |

| I will say women only because men fall for their fake tears when they are challenged. |

| Men are just notoriously bad at noticing the details. It could be happening right under their nose and they wouldn't see it. |

My ex and I tried the open marriage thing. It was a disaster. But anyway, we agreed to speak matter of factly about plans and other people, and not throw feelings of excitement in each other’s faces.
My ex was a disaster. Careless. |

If a woman is cheating but sincerely doesn't want to be discovered because it's not part of an exit strategy then I'd say she will be very good at hiding it.
Also, I think women are better at figuring out how a cheater could get caught and preventing that. |

Like much of life, most men are significantly worse, women are in the middle, and then there is a small percentage of men who are exceptionally better than everyone else.
More men would delve into the technology side to leave zero traces but, again, that is a small percentage overall and most men would fck that up royally. |

| I would say women because either my ex (man) is really dumb while thinking himself clever or he wanted to leave a trail of breadcrumbs (actually proper comparison would probably be Google map directions with longitude and latitude coordinates lol) |

| I would say women, not exactly because they are sneaky but because women seem to be able to compartmentalize better than men. My wife it’s not a liar but my wife lied to me thousands of times because she was able to keep her entire extra relationship in a partitioned off part of a brain. |
