Women are still lagging behind men in at least one area ... rule-breaking. According to recent studies, men have lower moral standards than women, especially when they have to defend their manhood, Scientific American reports.


Studies show that men are more likely than women to minimize the consequences of moral misconduct; to adopt ethically questionable tactics in strategic endeavors; and to engage in greater deceit, Scientific American reports. In other words, whether you're engaging in a business deal or choosing a life partner, you might be better off trusting a woman.
Guys are especially likely to be "immoral" in when success means proving their masculinity -- and yes, the workplace and the playing field both come to mind. But we have to wonder: Are guys more likely to engage in this sort of behavior because they're still more likely to be competing in these arenas than women? Or are men intrinsically more immoral? What do you think?

But honestly, I think if there had been a 'both' option, I probably would have opted for that one instead, because I can see it from both ends of the pole.
This reminds me of magazine articles and quizzes from days gone by that get recycled over and over like "How to please your man", "How to be a sexpot".. things don't change.. the only thing different are new generations who don't know it already.
Where is the link to the study, what are the statistics and how many people participated in this study?
While I've seen many men who make decisions that can be immoral, I've also witnessed a lot of women who can be just as bad if not worse than some men.
I think it really depends on the situation given as to whom will either bend or break their moral compass.
Does this mean that all men cheat? Not at all, but I believe the women with loyal husbands need to give them a little more credit than what they currently do and realize what a great thing they actually have -- because it takes discipline and a lot of it (this IS my opinion).
No offense, men, but speaking generally, it's obvious and very true.
Personally I've found men take longer to mature than women do. I will say there are a few decent men I'm around every day I work. So I know there's hope yet.
But in all seriousness, it's actually pretty dumb to say women are more moral than men, especially when it's not true at all. There are men more moral than any woman and more immoral than the most disgusting man... I'm sure you actually DO realize that, right?
