Woggle Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Women are much better liars but only to naive men. I can spot a woman's tricks pretty fast. Women are no better than men when it comes yet they like to point the finger at us as if are incapable of being faithful.

Women are no better than men when it comes yet they like to point the finger at us as if are incapable of being faithful. Aren't you pointing the finger at women by saying this? I am a woman, and I don't think men are any worse than women when it comes to cheating/lying. Equally bad, from what I've seen, and men and women BOTH do a hell of a lot lying to cover their tracks. Men and women. Both! Sound like you've had some unfortunate experiences with my gender, woggle.
Woggle Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 Sound like you've had some unfortunate experiences with my gender, woggle. That is an understatement but I try not top generalize because good women do exist. I don't always succeed but I do try.
annieo Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 That is an understatement but I try not top generalize because good women do exist. I don't always succeed but I do try. That's the spirit! And you are right - there are some good ones (male and female) out there. Not perfect, but basically decent. Keep an open mind, look for the positives, and if someone screws you around, drop them like the proverbial bad habit. That's my motto, anyway.
Lizzie60 Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 I’ve read countless threads on LS and I still don’t understand. I learnt that women are genetically programmed to want to settle with one man and men subconsciously want to impregnate as many women as they can. That seems to be general concessus. I’m wondering how women manage to build a relationship with someone, knowing they will be tempted with other women all the time, knowing they will have to resist that temptation every day, for the rest of their lives. Even if they manage to do that and never actually sleep with anyone else – can you imagine how much energy went into simply resisting the temptation? Honestly, jealousy aside, how can you impose such expectation on someone you love? I’m not tempted by other men – does that mean that being monogamous is easier for me? If women are ‘pre-programmed’ to only want one man, that means being faithful is much easier to them. And how come women cheat as often as men, then? I don't think women cheat as often as men.. I think women are much better in resisting temptation. It is easier for women... I think. Although more and more women are cheating... because they are now financially independant and have careers.. I still think men cheat way more.
blackbird Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 LOL what did I ever say about how women "feel"? Am I throwing pearls before swine yet again? (Need I really ask? ) Read up on Darwinism then get back to me. This is like having a discussion on quantum physics with 3rd graders. It must be truly terrible for you, having to consort with such... nobodies.
BlueEyedGirl Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Women cheat WAY WAY less. They are not ruled by their sexual urges (unlike men). The only reason a woman will cheat is if she is not emotionally happy in the current relationship. Men on the other hand can be 100% happy and sitll long for a bit of fun sex on the side.

I don't know if they cheat less, but I do think they tend to be tempted to cheat because they're lacking something from their current relationship, whereas men tend to be tempted whether they're lacking something or not, simply because they're sexually wired for variety/difference. In my experience at least.

I have a friend who's H had cancer and was sick off and on for 3 years before he died. During that time she would contact male escorts for the sex that he could no longer provide for her. She said he was the love of her life and what she needed had nothing to do with him. I would ask her not to tell me about it because for a time it made me dislike her. I was friend's with them both. I've also known other married women who've had one night stands and such and never planned on leaving their h and had happy marriages. It just happened and they went for it. I don't agree that women cheat only if their emotional needs aren't being met. My gf's can meet my emotional needs. It takes a man to meet my sexual needs. I think society has told women they are more interested in their emotions than sex for so long they believe it.
