Man cheats: Hey, he's just a man with urges! It's very common for men to cheat, and everyone makes mistakes. Forgive him and move on with life.
Woman cheats (or is identified as the person the man is cheating with): Slut. Whore. Homewrecker. Didn't you think about your own kids, or his kids? Bitch.
I'm not saying everyone holds these views, and I certainly don't see much of that here on AF, but go read some other articles about AM, and the comments are just appalling.
Oh my gosh, I hate that SO MUCH!!!
Few things bother me more than double standards in general, but the woman/man double standard when it comes to sex is particularly annoying. Also, if a girl sleeps around, she's a slut, but if a guy does it he's just being a guy. Ugh.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
