Is a woman sleeping with another woman considered cheating

Cheating or not cheating? I've heard this question most of my life growing up and often asked it myself.

This would be like making a promise such as: "I'll never drink water again"; and then putting ice in your drink. Just like ICE is WATER, SLEEPING WITH A WOMAN is still SEX WITH SOMEONE ELSE. So...YES, it still IS cheating. I mean, I, personally, would never sleep with a woman, even if it had to do with my partner's "fantasies". I'm just plain against it. If I wasn't though, how would I feel if HE slept with another MAN?! I'd probably think he was gay, or just didn't love me anymore, so either way, I wouldn't stay with him. I'd wonder how it was that I - the woman he supposedly cared for - was not enough to satisfy him. If not, why wouldn't he just leave me?

Did you notice that that is what MOST women would think if they were cheated on with another woman? EXACTLY; therefore, it's the same thing.

I think most of the world's opinion on this, is split in half. Most women will say it's not cheating because they want to be able to do it. Most men say it's not cheating because they like the idea. The rest who say that they would never tolerate it, well...they must actually be in love! because why on earth would you be okay with the idea of the woman you love sleeping with another woman! If not for love, it must be for their way of thinking - that someone's gender doesn't exclude them from their NO-CHEATING rule. Which is true, no gender should.

I do understand though, that some guys just like the thought of it and some girls do to, but if I wanted to sleep with another woman, I would NOT be in a relationship - even a casual one - because feelings almost always get in the way, If I wanted to sleep with another woman, shouldn't I just stay single and sleep around with whoever I felt like?

Either way, if you get into a relationship and (s)he says (s)he's okay with it, then that's on them. Have a happy relationship then - they ARE hard to find - but accept that you and your partner will never have an exclusive relationship (even if it is just once).

So.....Cheating or not cheating? YES; because it's not a question of "If my partner says they don't mind, then it's not cheating right?". It is the fact that with men or women; it's cheating - no matter HOW you slice it - or with what gender.
