Media personality Toke Makinwa has claimed that women are more likely to cheat than men, arguing that they are simply more discreet about it.

Speaking on a recent episode of her podcast, Toke Moments, Makinwa said women have a greater propensity to cheat because of the relative ease with which they can do so.

She contrasted this with men, whom she described as often committing substantial resources, time and effort when engaging in infidelity.

She said, “Cheating is not a dealbreaker for me but it comes with a caveat. When I say it some people think that I am encouraging cheating. No. As I grow older, I realised that it is not just men who can cheat. Why are we making these men feel so special as if it is only them?

“Do you know how easy it is for a woman to cheat? It is even easier for us. But men will spend money, efforts and time to cheat.

“But we, we are the ones receiving. It is easier for women to cheat. You know, we have work boyfriend. A woman not cheating is not because she cannot cheat, it is probably because she has one thing you lack, restraint.

“Women cheat more, but they know how to hide it.” (The Nation)
