Does it take big effort for women to stay loyal?

Some man who spoke as if he was the representative for all the men on earth; he and some men like him, kept on posting things tried to stress that men don’t find monogamous, loyal-to-wife lifestyle as ideal. The answers agreed to his post seemed to receive many thumbs up either, on the period where the forum was occupied mostly by men. While we may still wonder are all men like that or only the thoughtless ones, are women the same thing? Do women, deep inside the desire, if not for the thought of responsibility on marriage and family (other than religion or moral factor), would love to cheat the same way men would?

Update:

Victor: men may not need to say 'no', coz they are usually pursuer, not receiver - they have nothing to say 'no' to. if they can list which women they like/dislike,which one's to approach/not, that sure indicate pursuing or not pursuing indecent behavior of having affairs with more than a woman is still under their choice and control -as how we know it, men do have brains. they aren't automatic clueless shooting d*cks (sorry if that's what you believe). if men are leaders, as how many men think they are, knowing better what they do, they should have been more thoughtful and have stronger self-control in this, speaking of preserving dignity, male version.

    i don't believe that you think men are the only ones that cheat.there's lots of women out there the same as men.who have the same attitudes that fool around on their partners.women want a man to be their one and only all the time .if you wanted to keep him help him out a bit.he needs to know your interested in him to. don't stereotype all men because of something happened in one relationship.there's good and bad in all

    "Do women, deep inside the desire, if not for the thought of responsibility on marriage and family (other than religion or moral factor), would love to cheat the same way men would?" ----Women do cheat just like men do.

    For anyone with self control, it would not take a big effort to stay loyal.

    There are some men who do like monogamous relationships, and they are usually men with some maturity. All men are not like that. Both men and women can be loyal if they want to be. I would not feel good about myself cheating on my man.

    Personally, no effort whatsoever. I am intelligent enough to realize that though I can find other men attractive, I do not have to act on that attraction.

    I consider cheating, be it on the part of a male or a female, disgusting. I think that people that do this lack character and integrity. Unfortunately these days there seems to be a lot of them around.

    Women have for decades projected their own disdain for commitment onto men. Women love receiving a commitment, but there is nothing a woman hates more than giving one. When a commitment is given, a certain element of power and control is given, and there is nothing on this planet more obsessed with power and control than a human female.

    Women cheat more than men:

    But I'd say it is harder. Men have the weird phenomenon where women are more eager to be with them when they're in a relationship, whereas for me and most women, saying "I have a boyfriend" is the perfect way to cut down any unwanted male attention :)

    As long as you're rich, they'll stick to you like flies on sh*t.

    Easy one. Women have a lot of practice saying "No" and they are good at it. Unfortunately, guys dont have any practice saying No to sex. Look at Charlie Sheen.
