Do all men cheat? This is what 6 women have to say

Before you read any further, ask yourself this simple question: is your man completely loyal to you? That got you thinking, right? When it comes to fidelity, you can't call men its brand ambassadors. Men and fidelity, in fact, have a very precarious relationship.

This age-old question whether all men are cheaters, has gained momentum once again, after one Mumsnet user sparked a debate claiming that EVERY man is a capable of cheating. "People who are absolutely certain their other halves won't ever cheat are deluding themselves. There are some sanctimonious people on Mumsnet who are so fucking certain that their other halves won't cheat, it sets my teeth on edge" she wrote on the website.

Mumsnet is a parenting site and pretty popular in the UK. So, within hours the topic turned into a mainstay of some very heated discussions on the Internet.

Let's be honest. Don't you keep a tab on your bae's WhatsApp messages, just to see who he has been chatting to? Or go through his inbox to satiate your sense of insecurity or curiosity? Come to think of it, where does this feeling of constant vigilance emerge from? Why do you think you need to pry all the time, just to make sure he is not straying?

The answer is plain and simple: it's not easy for women to trust men. So, we got around asking a few young women on what they think, and their answers did surprise us.

That's Stupid. Not All Men Are Cheaters Brigade
"No, all men don't cheat. It all depends on their morals and upbringing. You can't paint them all with the same colour. Like all women are not the same, similarly all men are different too", said Sonakshi Kohli. OK! Point noted.

"See, the tendency in men to cheat is higher because they are more sexual, and also because of the kind of society we live in. But, there are men, as rare as they might be, for whom intimacy and bonding in a relationship takes precedence," says Somya Abrol. Hmmm... we agree. Society does play a pivotal role in shaping the perceptions of both men and women.

"It's mostly a state of mind and being true to a relationship. There are men, who don't fall prey to temptation", says Pragya. Are we talking about men or unicorns?

"No. All men are not cheaters," says Megha Chaturvedi, fiercely. "It all depends upon the relationship they are in."

All Men Suck Brigade
"Most men in my life are cheaters", says Ananya Bhattacharya. "Though it's a blanket statement, I am personally tilted towards it", she adds.

And she is not alone.

Charu Rathore agrees with her. "ALL MEN ARE BASTARDS! I would say 75% of men definitely cheat on their partners. It's the most common thing in the world", concludes Rathore.

So, going by the stats, it seems not all women agree with the age-old belief that if he's got a d**k, then he must be using it all the time. To each her own, we guess.
