Black Relationships : Why are men less likely to forgive cheating than women?

Because we know you have an emotional attachment to the guy







.
 
Because of paternal insecurity. Until recently, men could not be certain of the genetic paternity of children born into their families, yet they would risk providing resources, (financial, etc.) for said child(ren). The possibility of providing resources for another man's child(ren) is what makes infidelity more aversive to men than women, imho.

Then, I also think that men tie their manhood into sexual infidelity. That is, they might feel emasculated that another man provided something to their woman that they could not provide... maybe physically or emotionally.

But, many men do, in fact, forgive infidelity. But, unlike women, who complain to all their family and friends, men are more likely to keep it a secret, because they think it reflects badly on them, I think.

But, we shouldn't ask that men forgive cheating partners. No. We should ask that women DON'T forgive cheating partners.
