Pervasive Myths About Cheating

One common myth dispelled is the notion that 'it takes two to cheat,' implying the victim's fault. Another myth addressed is the belief that 'once a cheater, always a cheater,' which research does not support. Additionally, the idea that women cheat for emotional reasons and men for sexual reasons is refuted, emphasizing the individual nature of motivations for infidelity. Cultural influences and patriarchal norms are highlighted as contributing to these myths.
