Have any of you noticed that when a married guy cheats to his wife it's okay for others sometimes but when a woman cheats to his husband people's judgment are always bad. I don't see why these things should happen.

I don't think that is necessarily true, cheating is generally
frowned upon whether you are a man or a woman.

I think that if a woman were to cheat, they'll call her a slut or a whore, but if a man were to do it, they'll probably just assume that the woman wasn't doing her duties as a wife. Maybe they'll just shrug and say, "He is a man." When it comes to sex, women are always judged harsher, but the truth is, things aren't as clear cut as being a pure woman or a whore. There's some middle ground.

I see where you're coming from. It seems that women do get more negative feedback when cheating vs a man. I personally think both are just as bad. I have cheated myself, and if I could take it back I would.. I feel I deserve all the negative things that are said, b/c I messed up. I'm not gunna act like it never happened

I don't see that there is such an issue between the two genders. Cheating is unacceptable regardless of who is doing the deed and I have never seen anyone get away with it not getting shunned by everyone around them.

I know that such a view does exist, but, thankfully, I don't see it around here, where we live. All our friends seem to have the same opinion about cheating - it is something bad to do, regardless of which spouse does it.

Of course cheating is bad no matter who does it. It destroys trust and relationships, but there's always this double standard that exists. I wish it wasn't that way.

In some cultures it is accepted that men "can't help it," they have to have more than one woman. Women, on the other hand, are always required to be faithful, often they are expected to follow a very strict code of behavior, too. You are right, it is double standard, and it is bad.

Well here they actually giving so much bad judgement to women who cheated to her husband. And some husband cheaters gets away with it. That's what I don't like in peoples way of thinking. The treatment should be fair in both parties.

It's based in old traditions no matter what culture you're from. I think in some countries women were killed for infidelity. I think women are more subject to sexual diseases if she is with more than one man. Seems like nature is against us, too.
