Media personality Toke Makinwa has stirred debate by claiming that women are more likely to cheat than men, though they tend to be more discreet about it.
Speaking on a recent episode of her podcast, Toke Moments, Makinwa argued that women have a greater propensity for infidelity due to the relative ease with which they can engage in it. She contrasted this with men, who often invest substantial resources, time, and effort when cheating.

“Cheating is not a dealbreaker for me, but it comes with a caveat,” she said. “When I say this, some people think 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. Men will spend money, effort, and time to cheat. But we, we are the ones receiving. 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.”
Makinwa’s comments are likely to reignite conversations about gender, relationships, and fidelity, drawing attention to long-standing perceptions about infidelity dynamics between men and women.
