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?

Men also voted the most for men. What does that really say about men?
Getting down to the differences... Men apparently do things more that are immoral in appearance. Women apparently think about the immoral action and either hold back from actually doing, or do so more subtly.
People tend to look only on the outward appearance and so the consensus is that men are more immoral. However, God looks on the heart/mind, and has stated quite emphatically that if you actively think/contemplate it, you are guilty.
ACTUALLY Romans 3:10 says " FOR " ALL" have sinned and come short of the Glory of God So Spiritually all humans Men and Women are in the same boat.
It's hard to say who's worst because one would have to compare all men against all women to have a truly honest answer.
WHO WAS WORST IN THE GARDEN ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE? ADAM, EVE, OR WAS IT ACTUALLY SATAN WHO DECEIVED EVE?
Satan was already condemned, Both Adam and Eve sinned against God by disobeying so both was punished
As for who was guilty in the Garden... There were 4 guilty parties.
1)Satan, as you say, had been previously condemned and was again/still guilty.
2)Eve entertained the temptation, misquoted God, acted on the temptation. Later, when confronted tried to pass blame to the serpent.
3)Adam stood by and let it all happen without lifting a finger or his voice to prevent disobedience and then join in said disobedience. Later, when confronted, tried to pass blame to Eve.
4)The serpent allowed itself to be used by Satan.
Result...
1)Satan still condemned. His ultimate defeat by Eve's descendent (Jesus) prophesied.
2)Eve cursed to want authority that belonged to Adam (and that characteristic passed on.) Cursed to have painful child bearing. Prophesied to be the G.G.G....grandmother of the eventual Savior (Jesus.)
3)Adam cursed to have a tendency to avoid the authority that is his responsibility (and to pass on that characteristic.) Cursed to have to labor to earn a living (whether direct via farming or indirect via business/employment.) Cursed to pass on the sin nature to descendents.
4)Serpent cursed to change form. No longer would it be the intelligent, beautiful speaking creature that it was created as (aka dragon.) ...

4)Serpent cursed to change form. No longer would it be the intelligent, beautiful speaking creature that it was created as (aka dragon.) From then on it would become the lowly snake... low intelligence, forked tongue, slither on belly and eat dust. Further prophesy indicates the typical enmity between women and snakes and ties into the prophecy of the coming Savior (Jesus.)
YES those are true too Good points
Ted stole my girlfriend, therefore Ted is a douchebag. Man logic.
Emily is prettier than I am and has nice clothes, therefore Emily is a whore. Woman logic.
Men seem to be just as adverse to abortions as women. There are male abortion doctors. Men pressure women into abortions. Men don't generally feel Post-Abortive Depression (it exists), so they can't even "learn their lesson" about abortion the way women may after they have one. Historically, men killed unwanted infants just as much, if not more, than women. In China, gender-specific abortions occur against females (something that I'm sure the men are more likely to decide than women).
I'm not arguing that men are worse, just that the abortion statistics do not prove that women are worse than men. We do not know how abortion statistics would be if men could get pregnant, and I won't propose a hypothesis except that they would likely be about the same.
Both sexes are equally immoral.
