Infidelity among men and women

Today morning,in radio the topic for debate was "Is infidelity a territory of men?" Though always I wanted to listen to these debates most of the time it would be my breakfast time. So I won't be able to listen it. But today I decided to listen it at any cost. Sure, I missed some part of it still it turned out to be good. There were three panelists. A lady who is a counsellor, an IT professional who is also a member of All India Men's Welfare Association(I never knew such an association existed) and a psychiartist. The lady panelist told the men are more prone to infidelity than women. She quoted from history the stories like Kannaki. The IT professional told that in India the punishment for infidelity is only for men(Section 97) not for women.i.e. evn if a husband same to know that his wife is unloyal to him the person getting punishment will be the other man not his wife although she is also involved in it. Wow...I think when our frist law commission drafted IPC they would have never imagined Indian women will never be unfaithful to their men. Anyway today we know how the situation is and that debate ended with the conclusion that in the case of infidelity both men and women are equally responsible for a man is unloyal to his wife 'coz of another woman unless and otherwise he is a gay. Still all were happy for the fact that in the insitution of marriage Indian marriage is the most trust worthy than anyone else' in this world.I remember reading a survey conducted by a magazine which reveals appalling number of extra marital affairs in Indian metros a few years before.May be its a small minority but still that is the reality. We also have movies and daily soaps which endorses this and the TRP rate for all these we all know how high.So as the number of divorces increases day by day and trying to emulate all which is Western or American I wonder how long we can boast about the institution of marriage in India.
