double standard when it comes to marital infidelity
there's no double standard about marital infidelity. men who cheat on their wives are (and should be) considered disloyal assholes by 90% of other men in western, developed nations. yes, there's that small portion of men who celebrate it, but there's an equally-sized portion of women who celebrate when women cheat due to "empowerment" or whatever bullshit. both are terrible, devotion to your family is the highest virtue in a relationship, but the fact that a small portion of the population supports infidelity doesn't mean that's the norm.
It's the double standard about sexual activity in general. Women who have lots of sex are disgusting, defiled sluts. Men who have lots of sex are total hero studs.
i've talked to a lot of people, both male and female, from all sides of the political spectrum. literally no one i've ever talked to has felt that way. leftists either celebrate having tons of sex no matter who you are, or they celebrate it in women but in men view it as proof you're a predator. conservatives, on the other hand, think the purpose of dating is to find a spouse and start a family, not to play the field, so they view promiscuity negatively regardless of who you are; they look down on men who have casual sex, or who've had more than a few relationships, just as much as they look down on women doing the same.
both of you are forgetting that
this is a porn game forum, not real life. the primary virtue here in non-NTR games is loyalty to the main character, so getting cheated on is what's evil, regardless of who does it. in a non-NTR straight male protagonist game, that means women who cheat are bad. in a non-NTR straight female protagonist game, that means men who cheat are bad. in both cases, the protagonist is generally allowed to play the field because these games are power fantasies; these games should not be taken as genuine reflections of reality, because they aren't.
