+Does Gender Play a Role in

Infidelity ?

40.5% percent of women felt guilty for cheating on their significant other.

It was found that both age and gender had a joint affect on the likelihood of cheating.

People under the age of 40 regardless of gender reported no differences in their reported infidelity.

More men seem to feel once they are married they will want to cheat compared to women.

Gender plays a role in some circumstances, that women will cheat for more emotional reasons as for men who cheat for physical and sexual reasons. Yet one can say gender does not play a role, since both genders cheat.
