The crap about guys cheating more is a myth. A study taken here at the University of Texas (sorry cant find the link) tested this.
Group 1 female: Women were interviewed about their sexual past and questions concerning cheating. Showed about 17% of women admitted to cheating
Group 1 male: Same as above, showed about 45% of males admitted to cheating.
Group 2 female: Women set up to a fake lie-detector (had an actual detector, just the pens were altered so they didnt depend on the actual person, but were predone to show lies when and where. Showed 47% of females admitted to cheating.
Group 2 male: Same as above, 48% of males admitted to cheating.
Followup interviews were taken. The women in group 1 who said they never cheated (later turn it around and admit to it) used loopholes. Myriad of excuses, mostly simple as "he cheated first" or long-distance relationship.
What this shows? Yes, men cheat more, but only about 1.5-2%. They are just more open about it.
