They never have the idea/interest to be loyal to their women. They are ready and willing to cheat on their women whenever there is a chance. But women on the other hand are not of that type.
Is it true?

Like the previous poster said, it depends on the person. I think by society's standards it is more "acceptable" for a man to be flirtatious than a woman, which is a bunch of bull.
There are good men out there that are willing to be mature and put their all into a relationship and not give up and cheat. I know more than a few men that actually have their heads in the right place. Then again, I know more than a few women the same way. Either way, there are good people out there, and this idea is only generated by people who have come into contact with more cheating men than women, in my opinion. Otherwise, if you have no proof in personal experiences, why would you say it? :)

I beg to differ from you LovingLife, though I would love if your statement is true. many people are not open/honest in telling their real life happenings. I don't say this with half knwoledge, believe me I have seen many in my life.

If you mean that people are not likely to tell others they cheat, I do agree with you. What one person does is none of anyone else's business unless they are directly affected. However, cheating is not something that can be hidden easily...if someone does it, whether man or woman, it usually gets brought to the surface later if not soon.
I personally know no one who has been through a break up/divorce/hardship because of infidelity. Like you said, perhaps one of the people involved cheated and no one else knew--but if my husband cheated I would be sure to let others know if only to talk to someone until I fully trusted him again. Perhaps we both know different kinds of people on a general scale. Like I said in my previous post--if you know people who tend to cheat, you are going to see it as widespread. For someone like me who has never known anyone in my family or friend circles who has cheated, it's going to seem miniscule.
I think cheating is something that is awful and something that is too widespread, but I don't believe everyone has it in them to do it. Sure, I have arguments and hard times in my marriage and with my husband in general--but nothing is bad enough for me to go against my wedding vows, and nothing could make me want to. I find no men attractive but him so the idea is just ridiculous in my eyes. I understand you've had different experiences than me--but there are good people out there, and I stand by that. If there weren't, life would be a pretty miserable one to live. :(

no, i know men who would never cheat and i know women who would jump on any cute guy passing by. I know this one girl who sleeps around when she feels that she isn't good enough, it's her way of punishing herself and her boyfriend.

yes, it could be, but it is a rare occurrence. How about most of the men and most of the women?

men are usually more likely to cheat. women are less likely, but very likely nonetheless. I think men are more likely to have a wife and then change mistresses every few month while women if they cheat they would more likely cheat with only one men

it is becoz of the society's thinking that...it is okay for men to flirt or have other woman,but it is a cursed for a woman to flirt or had another affair that i really don't understand why,when both sexes are human.(grrrr)
