[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why there is such a discussion on it being solely men who do this.

All the divorces I know about in our circles it is the women who have cheated.  All of them.  Only one couple have stayed together and that was because the husband didn't want to disrupt the kids lives.

Of the couples who have divorced and I don't know the circumstances it was the woman who initiated the divorce.

This isn't the old days where the woman is sitting at home while the man cheats, I actually think these days females are far more likely to cheat especially if she earns as much or more than the partner.[/quote]

[b]It's because if a woman cheats she is done with the marriage.  If the man cheats, he is usually fine with the marriage but missing sex[/b], either frequency or variety. Affairs for women are often exit affairs

Of course there are exceptions, but this is largely true and no I don't think it's a tiny fraction of men who are having regular sex who cheat.  But still, men are cheating for sexual reasons and can still want to be married because often the rest of the marriage is ok[/quote]I don't agree.  I've been on AM on and off for just over 10 years and met many married women who have no intention of leaving their marriage, but are missing sex.  Many of them were still very much in love with their husbands even if the guy was an alcoholic.  I can assure you, as a serial cheater who is now single there is no imbalance of men:women who are willing.  Women are a LOT more discreet about affairs and not as likely to likely to discuss such things, even on an anonymous forum, but the numbers who cheat these days are just as many as men.[/quote]
