It's a norm for most men
Even if they love their partners, most men will always end up cheating just to have more sex on their side, an American sociologist has claimed.

According to the study, men who do not cheat are setting themselves up for ‘socially-compelled sexual incarceration’ however, men who cheat, enjoy best of both worlds.
The study, which surveyed 120 undergraduate men – both gay and straight, revealed that 78 per cent of those with partners cheated, ‘even though they said that they loved andu00a0intended to stay with their partner.’
Blame it on daddy!
A study has revealed that cheating really does run in the family, at least as far as men are concerned.
A team of Czech scientists carried out the study that confirmed the old adage ''like father like son’.
They concluded that while men and women both had affairs, men were more likely to stray if their fathers had been unfaithful as they were growing up, reports a major newspaper.
The scientists, based at Charles University in Prague recruited 86 couples for the research.
They found that whether or not a man was satisfied and happy in his main relationship had no effect on the likelihood that he would stray.
Men usually have affairs because they want sex and a greater number of sexual partners, not because they are fed up with their wives, he said.
It's a matter of power!
Scientists believe that it is a person''s power, rather than gender, that plays the greatest role in infidelity.
A team of researchers conducted an anonymous Internet survey of 1,561 adults and found that there is a higher risk of unfaithfulness in people of positions of power, no matteru00a0the sex.
The study revealed two key discoveries to why powerful people cheat.
First, there is a strong association between power and confidence, and the amount of confidence a person has is the strongest link between power and unfaithfulness.
Second, the researchers found that among powerful people, gender made no difference in past digressions or the participants’ desires to cheat.
