All of it - every single last thing is dead wrong. Women cheat for the same variety of reasons that men do - because something is lacking in their current relationship, because they want better sex, because they are bored with their relationship and seeking validation, etc.

Why on earth would a woman date or marry a man she's not actually attracted to? You do realize it's not 1950 anymore, right? Women are making more than men in 42 US cities. Men are no longer competing against other men, they are competing with a woman's peace and sanity that she has a single person. Women initiate 70% of divorces - because too many men treat their wives like a sex-dispensing house elf instead of a partner.

Women often feel less satisfied in relationships, which makes them more likely to initiate breakups. This lower satisfaction comes from various issues, like not feeling emotionally fulfilled, poor communication, and lack of independence in the relationship.

The fact is that today, women are working more than they ever have and make up a little over half of the workforce in the United States. However, in many marriages women are still seen as primarily responsible for domestic duties. Despite having more on their plates with their careers.

Michael Rosenfeld, an associate professor of sociology at Stanford University and author of the ASA study stated, “I think that marriage as an institution has been a little bit slow to catch up with expectations for gender equality. Wives still take their husbands’ surnames, and are sometimes pressured to do so. Husbands still expect their wives to do the bulk of the housework and the bulk of the childcare.”

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint. I do not feel ashamed. I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothing in between.
