Are girls or guys more honest in relationships?

[foxsquirrell]

Girls are more honest

Guys are more honest

[Anonymous]

In general, women lie about 50% of the time their mouth is moving. But most women lie so much that they believe they're telling the truth even when they are lying. And a lot of these are lies of omission. Women (unless enraged) calculate what they say. Conversations are like chess matches to them. They're not only calculating what they say but how you'll react and think 3 or 4 exchanges down the road. They're always trying to steer the conversation to get whatever desired response out of you they are seeking.

[foxsquirrell]

Best answer. If I remember Ill give you most helpful answer when the option pops up.

[MisterWack]

I voted “guys are more honest”
However listen: BOTH genders can cheat, BOTH can lie (and for different reasons whether justified or not), BOTH can break it off at any moment, etc.
I don’t believe majority or minority when it comes to this since it is the individual’s character & actions & personality.

[MisterWack]

@foxsquirrell I don’t believe guys are more honest, just voted it because it is 1 or the other which it should not be

[Baublebar234]

I would say it’s based on the person than the gender but just based on overall context, I will say a lot of men do lie to women to get what they want (ie: sex). A lot of men tell women exactly what they want to hear (wanting something serious for example or being interested) just to get in their pants or use to their benefit for example. There are slim chances where a guy is 100% about just wanting sex with a woman because they know that most likely they won’t get it from being honest.

[foxsquirrell]

Yeah sure, and on the other hand a lot of woman lead a guys into believing that they are in love with them to manipulate them and make them sacrifice one sacrifice after the other to their benefit!
So even though some men lie to have sex, that's all that they want (and it is something that the girl herself might actually enjoy as well!) While on the other hand the woman's lie typically drains tons of finances out of the poor guy! So whose lies are worse even they both lie? Whose venom is worse?

[Baublebar234]

Very good point. Some women do that as well. I would say both lies are pretty terrible. And it’s a double edged sword. ME personally, I’d rather be used for money than my body if I truly had to choose. Money comes and goes and you can get back money. Giving your body to someone who is using you is kind of worse. Not to mention the risks on top of that. There’s more emotion to having sex than giving money.

[Lalalove11]

Girls are definitely less direct. But I've met a lot of guys who string along in dating and are not direct about what they are actually looking for from dating if that makes sense. But generally I'd say girls might lie more 😅

[foxsquirrell]

Good!

[AI Opinion]

Ah, diving into the timeless debate of who's the keeper of truth in relationships, aren't we? 😉 Well, love, honesty isn't about gender; it's about personality, values, and, dare I say, the courage to be real with your partner. Both gals and guys can be masters of truth or, unfortunately, the puppeteers of little white lies. It really boils down to the individual's character and their commitment to transparency in the relationship. So, instead of putting bets on who's more honest, let's focus on fostering communication and trust with our significant others. That's where the real magic happens! 🌟

[DishLady]

I don't think it's gender-specific. Some girls/guys are brutally honest. Some girls/guys love to play games, be players, or whatever you want to call it...

[foxsquirrell]

Yes, but don't you think one group are more dishonest than the other on average?

[MisterWack]

@DishLady Try educating this guy, he claims only guys are more honest which I don’t support same way I don’t support women are more honest. Depends on the relationship, scenario, circumstance, character, etc.

[DishLady]

@MisterWack Ignorance is bliss sometimes. We both know that some guys are honest and some guys are textbook "terrible bastard 2.0" ... And the same can be said about girls... Honesty simply isn't gender-specific, racially-specific, religiously-specific, etc. etc. etc. If he's actually 39 he's probably just licking his own wounds from a bad relationship. Let him be...

[MisterWack]

@DishLady Smart, sharp, wise and honest as always. Thanks for the insight & food for thought.

[DishLady]

@MisterWack Right back at you! ;)

[foxsquirrell]

@MisterWack If you are going to quote me, can you at least quote me accurately?
The polls, by the way, seem to support my views. Or do you think they are all ignorant too Mr. Wiseguy. Trying to educate me. You are pathetic. And you are trying to get on this lady's good graces. You are pathetic for that too.

[foxsquirrell]

I am licking no wounds for your information. It is just my observation which by the way happens to be the prevalent view in the polls here. What do you make out of that?
Are you sure you are understanding what I am saying? Do you know what on average means? Or put simply most of the time? Do you know what that means?

[DishLady]

Your aggressive tone and trolling aren’t really helpful here, buddy. Relax. Do you know what RELAX means? Smh.

[foxsquirrell]

Unbelievable. Smh

[DishLady]

It is, indeed. Read "The Horse Dealer's Daughter" -- a cautionary tale young women for generations have been forced to read to let them know how conniving guys can be and then tell me again that guys are more honest then girls. Here's the link so you don't hurt yourself thinking: bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/.../...ers%20Daughter.pdf

Enjoy.

[foxsquirrell]

I'm not gonna thrust any links from you. But Ill google the title. And how about checking on your tone before telling me to watch my tone and calling me rude? You're the one who is calling me ignorant and stupid by implication.
You must be some middle aged woman who likes to argue on stupid little things from what I am seeing here.
Who cares that there is a story which highlights the fact that some guys can be very dishonest? I never said that dishonesty is exclusive to girls. It isn't. But on average it is girls who are dishonest most of the time not guys. So stick to what I am saying and not what you want to believe that I am saying so that it can fit your argument.

[MisterWack]

@foxsquirrell Not going to trust the link, great!
Well case closed buddy.

[MisterWack]

P. S. I clicked the link and it is safe and shows exactly what she is talking about.

[Apple1996]

Men lie more times in a day than women do

[foxsquirrell]

:O you can't be serious?

[Kingofkings1992]

that’s all women do is lie

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Women lie more times in a day than men do

[Nikki1989]

@Apple1996 Exactly.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Exactly not

[Apple1996]

@Kingofkings1992 stop lying 🤥

[Apple1996]

Seriously it's been proven lol

[Kingofkings1992]

Aww the girls are sticking together. How cute

[foxsquirrell]

@Kingofkings1992 LOL good observation!

[Kingofkings1992]

Apple likes to state things that are opposite of the truth on purpose just to get a reaction from people. She does it all the time

[Apple1996]

@Kingofkings1992
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zRV7o1psxIg

Old video but still men lie more

[Kingofkings1992]

@Apple1996 …. but women are the ones who can afford to live in a fantasy world. Men have to live in reality

[Apple1996]

@Kingofkings1992 that would really depend on the individual not gender. For myself I have too many responsibilities to live in a fantasy world. For someone without responsibilities sure they might be able to do that

[Aiko_E_Lara]

And you can also stop lying about it being proven

[Aiko_E_Lara]

It's also proven that society tends to believe in women more even if she's lying so that would also just means there are more girls lying just not getting caught.

[HawkPerception]

Both lie, but I'd say guys are more up front by nature. Girls tend to be very indirect in what they mean and expect you to read their mind a lot of the time. Sometimes they don't even know what they want half the time.

[foxsquirrell]

Agreed. I like your answer.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

There are men who will create an entire false persona just because they don’t want to be alone and then they’re shocked and hurt that, as their real self comes out more and more, she’s not attracted to it and the relationship ends.

[foxsquirrell]

And so your conclusion is?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I would think that’s obvious but I can be a bit more plain as I say: men lie more than women in relationships

[Kingofkings1992]

@cupcakethedestroyer lmao

[foxsquirrell]

I don't think your original answer is obvious. Again you are being ambiguous. I remember you from some other question I posted recently. You and I would defenitley have a lot of misunderstandings if we were for example work colleagues!
Just be more blunt can you? All these hints and stuff.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

@foxsquirrell who are you again?

[foxsquirrell]

I don't remember the question to which you answered some 2 days ago I think. But even then you answered ambiguously and because I told you the clarify you were like its obvious and that I must be autistic. :(

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Are you? I am too, I can get how frustrating shit can be some days

[foxsquirrell]

If I am I don't know. I never went to a professional to diagnose me or anything. So I don't know. But I don't think I am.
I do go through a lot of frustration with people, but that is because they are often dumb and there is nothing I can do about it, except to hope to meet some normal people.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

The burden of knowledge is that you no longer remember what it was like to not know something, thus reducing your capacity for empathy when someone else also doesn’t know like you once did. Maybe you should keep that in mind in the future, we don’t all learn the same things at once.

[foxsquirrell]

No no its not about knowledge, its what you draw or make up from that knowledge. When I am frustrated we often have the same information. It is the conclusion and the reasoning (or lack there of) with which the other comes to that conclusion from the knowledge in question which frustrates me. Because I think it is nonsense or stupid. My work place for instance is full of such people.

[HighValue]

More guys are honest for sure, especially when it comes to divorce and women lying to steal the kids from the father and to get alimony and child support. Plus a third of paternity tests turn out that the father isn't the person that the woman pretended it was. Women lie FREQUENTLY and intentionally harm men and children.

[OhLongJohnsoning]

Men. While men may lie upfront more, women tend to be more sneaky about it, meaning, they're better at hiding their lies, and cheating

[foxsquirrell]

Excellent. I like your answer. I think it is very true! Good job.

[ManOnFire]

Most definitely guys. Girls say one thing but do another, speaking two different languages. This is deceit/dishonesty, and was the way of the serpent in the Garden and the way of the Nagas in Hinduism.

[Billlewis]

I think we may have gotten this one wrong. Although women are, by far more cruel heartless in the dating game, I think men are more likely to tell falsehoods.

[foxsquirrell]

Interesting. I still think they are also the most deceitful (dishonest) as well though.

[Billlewis]

Well. Women are more likely to split hairs and use semantics to tip toe through the conversation without, in their minds lying outright, but as we all know, unless you're absolute bomb, you know, like I was when I was younger, sooner or later, that revolving door is swing around and you'll be a free agent once again. They're a little like the guys who car salesmen call 'curbstoners' -- as soon as they buy a car, they put a 'For Sale' sign in the back window, because you never know when something better will come along -- you only know that eventually, it will.

[foxsquirrell]

lol yeah you're right when saying that they like to tip toe through the conversation. They are like cowards who stand behind a wall of lies. They are afraid to come in the open with their true opinion. They don't have the balls to face the truth. And with that comes manipulation, treachery, and the split tongue of the devil.

[Billlewis]

They're always looking for their next long term boyfriend, while they piddle around with you while they're waiting for him to magically appear.

[Kelley1]

Girls are more honest because girl force guys to lie. That is because they reward with sex guys that lie and punish guys by denying sex if a guy tells the truth.

[foxsquirrell]

This answer looks like a cupboard upside down! I have no idea what you are trying to say.

[Kelley1]

Typically guys are seeking sex. If a guy lies and says, "You are perfect for me; the kind of girl I've always wanted," she may reward his lie with sex. However, if he is truthful and says, "You are okay for sex when I'm horny but you are not good enough to marry," she will punish him for telling the truth by denying sex.

[foxsquirrell]

I mean there is truth in what you say, but it is a tiny part of a relationship I think. But anyways, its your opinion.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

It's not really a lie if they know the truth since they are intentionally forcing guys to lie so they know it's a lie. But if they love the lies then they're lying to themselves.

[Nikki1989]

Most men lie constantly. Any man disagreeing must have his head up his butt.

[foxsquirrell]

I think you mean women lie constantly, and through to form here you are you don't admit. Never. Typical girls.

[Kingofkings1992]

“My opinion is fact, and if you disagree you must have your head up your butt.” Very mature

[HH1488]

Girls because they are so removed from honesty and accountability that it's your fault they lie 25/8 366 days a year

[foxsquirrell]

LOL you're right.

[lil_will_12]

Cut this “male vs female” stuff, you people act like children istg

its equal, it depends on the person, not the specific gender 🙄

[rienna888]

i'd say it depends, both aren't always honest. Some men will pretend to want a relationship, to get sex. And some women will pretend to want a relationship, to get money or company.

[foxsquirrell]

Exactly. Now who do you think is often more honest, or conversely more dishonest, boys or girls?

[rienna888]

Lol this is a difficult question. I wouldn't say men are more honest but they're easier to read and more transparent, so i'd say men. And if they don't like you physically, they're more likely to show it through their actions. I'd say if I wasn't attracted to a guy, I'd still be polite and kind towards him sometimes and that could be confusing.

[foxsquirrell]

See, you got it right. But that last part is both interesting and worrying.

[Jessikaah91]

I'm not sure but usually me and my partner are both honest to each other even if it's not what we want to hear at times.

[paledreams]

Women are more honest in their future intentions ahahaha "from day one she knew she'd divorce him for all his assets, one day" hahahahaha 🤣

[Dongie]

I'd say there are dishonest pricks in many relationships. Male and female. The trick is getting them paired so they only make themselves suffer.

[foxsquirrell]

Haha true.

[turnpost]

Guys can afford to be more honest. Just one lie your lean enough is fine. Girls though if you dont lie then its just straight to hell.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Gender is irrelevant. Being honest is a character trait, not a gender trait.

[foxsquirrell]

No one said here that honest is not a character trait. And its irrelevant what kind of trait it is. The question is who is more dishonest on average.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

How the hell is anyone suppose to know the correct answer to that?

Humans lie regardless of gender at the same rate. That's just the way humans are.

[foxsquirrell]

Do you even realize that you answered your own question?
According to you both genders are equally dishonest. On the other hand many people think that girls are generally more dishonest than guys. Its not that anyone is keeping a log book, it is their general observation.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Except you didn't really put "Equal" in your poll option so that lowkey imply that you don't accept answer saying both lie equaly.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@foxsquirrell: Yes, in the general sense I would guess its equal at the same rate of being dishonest.

Both men and women are sinful humans thus they are going to tell lies a lot of times.

If you were to ask me more a factual question then I would have givin you a factual answer.

[LiamJHayden]

Honest people are. Dishonest people are not. Sex is not relevant to the aforementioned.

[OddBeMe]

Not sure…I think it’s more just human. Either gender can lie.

[Anonymous]

Barf! Sorry! You've never seen a female Barf? Well, I'd say we're both equal.

[Sabretooth]

Sure... Just don't ask me anything that you think that I might need to lie about.

[Kingofkings1992]

Obviously men. Men couldn’t get away with half the shit that women do.

[serious]

It is person based and not gender based.

[avery58]

I don't think it depends on the gender much

[the29thhuman]

Verbally or with their body language?

[foxsquirrell]

Both.

[the29thhuman]

Can’t be both. Your question has “or”.

Someone can talk about something and their body language says something else.
You’re looking for blame and conflict, not logic or reason.
Men and Women can’t be compared. All women aren’t the same and neither is all men. It’s very circumstantial and you’re in denial about something you aren’t putting into your equation

[foxsquirrell]

The OR in my question is about the gender. Either girls or females. Both in my answer to you refers to the two different ways someone can be dishonest. They are two different things.
It does not matter how someone is dishonest. That is why I said both! Both as in both ways of being dishonest, not both genders.

[the29thhuman]

Cool story bro

[Juxtapose]

I don't think it's really sex-specific.

[foxsquirrell]

Well I think there must be one more than the other.

[worldscolide]

I think both sides are shit at communicating

[Vegasrunner]

Women 100% they can afford to be.

[Anonymous]

Some guys good, some girls bad.
