And without any research, one can assume that men are more frivolous and flighty in this regard.
However, scientists decided to check and came to an interesting conclusion that the tendency to cheat is not determined by gender differences alone. Some things depend on age.
According to the latest research by American scientists, the tendency of spouses to cheat is determined not only by the difference in gender, but also by the age of the cheaters.
From 18 to 29 years old
In this case, the statistics are not in favor of women. 11% of the fair sex admitted to cheating, while the stronger sex cheated only 10% of the time.
From 30 to 39 years old
Clearly, something happens to men that forces them to take the path of marital infidelity and never turn back.
14% of men and 11% of women of this age admit to cheating.
From 50 to 59 years old
Peak of adultery. It is quite obvious that men are losing their heads. Here we have "gray hair in the beard" and everything else.
31% of cheating men are confronted by 18% of cheating women.
For women, the peak of infidelity occurs between the ages of 40 and 49, after which the rate declines.
60 years and over
Even at this age, 24% of men and 16% of women cannot settle down.
And after reaching 70-79 years, 26% of men continue to cheat. For women, this figure drops to 13%.
The main reason for infidelity, according to respondents, was dissatisfaction with the relationship or the other half.
