Anything intimate you do that you wouldn’t want your partner finding out is cheating.
Women are WAAAAAAY more guilty of cheating than men. But they just get away with it more.
Women have more flirty conversations with men all the time because they have more options for it.
Women secretly online stalk ex’s or flames.
Women have more private dm’s and texts that they delete that their partner never know about.
Women have more sexual options and therefore more opportunities to cheat.
Women have more of a hypergamous “grass is greener” syndrome therefore are more likely to monkey branch.
Women are more likely to do sexual type stuff with male “friends” and think it’s joking around fun.
Women are more likely to send risqué images to another person because they crave male attention.
So you're telling me every time that you masturbate you're only thinking about your significant other? I call bullshit. You can call it cheating or whatever but I think the majority of people want to get out of their everyday lives and fantasize about someone or something else. Doesn't mean that they're going to act on their feelings, we were given an imagination to use, I don't see how it's wrong to imagine somebody other than my wife, as the old saying goes it doesn't matter where you get your appetite as long as you eat at home
no I didn't say that at all I think of my school boy sweet heart, we nearly had sex but didn't and I wonder what it would have been like and what events could have changed so bullshit to you
And now you don't masturbate thinking about what could have happened?
The statistics show that cheating has increased like 30% in the last ten years with no sign of slowing down. With the slow decline of religious people in the newer generations, different things are becoming priority like sexual freedom and wellbeing. I think we'll see a much bigger shift towards polyamory in the coming decade, and that's really awesome.
awesome in what way,
In a way that we can live more authentically attuned to human nature and shift away from the false narratives painted by the religious oppressors that have indoctrinated and lied to us for generations
good reasoning, but only up to the point of children coming along, they need both parents
If you share it with your partner it’s not cheating
I mentioned that at the start

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!I'm glad you added "not being shared with ones husband/wife/partner" because to me cheating is when you're not being truthful. Open relationships are not based on a lie.
that is correct
Masturbation to fantasy is rarely considered by anyone as cheating, yeah some people don't like their partners doing it, but at some point everyone has, doesn't make them a cheater.
in your opinion, in mine it does if they think about someone other than their SO
Oh vyt it's ok if your husband knows avout your fantasy? * I think about my school sweetheart and wonder what would have happened if we had full sex, now my husband know I do this so I am not cheating"
You have a very different view of what constitutes 'cheating' than I have. I have had 'look' but don't touch, sex with women, but don't think of it as 'cheating' per se. We all operate on different scales of right and wrong, I suppose.

That’s a very narrow definition of cheating. By that definition I cheat a couple times a week (sometimes I think about other people when I masturbate).
well that is my opinion, whether the deed or the thinking about sex with someone else, I don't cheat in my thoughts because I tell my husband , its basically the keeping secrets that is the cheating
How does your husband feel about that?
he is the same as me, we have an open marriage, but with rules, one is that if we do something when the other isn't around then we tell at the first opportunity, now I had a sexual fling with a guy, and for reasons unknown to me other than things cropped up I didn't tell my husband for a few days, that is cheating, even though I told him later
According to the sources you look at it is anywhere from 20% to 70% of people. Nobody wants to admit it or talk about it, so actual numbers are hard to come by.
You can look up stats and get an idea. Seems like a lot anecdotally.
By your views I have cheated on my partner's when i didn't share my sandwich with them.. i think you are a bit strict on the term "cheating" .
pretty sure most people cheat... i have seen it very often. And it doesn't slow down as you get older either
It depends upon the culture, culture in which multi lover is considered :A Pride :then cheating will be too much
I'm on openly poly person and both my girlfriends know everything, so I agree with you, I do not consider it cheating!
most don't, sometimes though things just happen that can't be stopped, should be, but the need out weights what's right.
openly 10% cheaters secretly 90% cheaters.
never
so what do you masturbate about then
@Istanbulllll
