Does it count as adultery for the single female if she cheats with a married male?

RIck T

She is committing adultery just as much as he is. They are both ignoring his union with his wife and the fidelity that marriage demands. Both she and he are disrespecting his wife.

Does it matter, it is still wrong...what is this a game of semantics?

Yes, if the single female/male is aware that the other person is married, they too are guilty of adultery.

By definition, a single person CAN NOT commit adultery. Adultery is when you cheat on your spouse... a single person doesn't HAVE a spouse. But the ACT of being with someone who is married is still an adulterous act that she would be participating in.

And regardless, it is not RIGHT.

Unless the married guy is already seperated from his wife and planning on a divorce before they met, I would still have a moral problem with it... she would still be involved in cheating, even if SHE wasn't doing the cheating.

Its like a person who enables an alcoholic to drink. The single female would still be wronging the woman who is being cheated on by her husband. And I'm not even going to get into the other issues involved... well, maybe just a little... like, how is the single woman's self esteem affected by dating a guy with whom she is #2, at best?

So all in all, not adultery per se... but not adviseable either.

It can be viewed in a number of ways; however, the way I view it is that it is wrong. The married person is definitely by definition the adulteress, but the single person who is allowing this to take place is a mistress. It is just wrong to embark on a relationship before the other has dissolved.

Ummm...I'd say that the married person is committing adultery, the single person is aiding & abetting. Neither person is doing the right thing, regardless. Consider - how would YOU feel if you were on the opposite end??

Adultery is a crime which normally requires (at least) 2 people...therefore both parties are guilty of the crime.

Morally, the married party is held most responsible because he/she is expected to be the responsible one by honoring the marriage commitment.

they are both considered cheaters in the eyes of God

I am thinking both...

no she is not commiting adultery as she is not married, but she is a s*** a who**, and one of the lowest forms of life, and can be sued in some states for alienation of affection by the wife the last woman who sued her husbands mistress won a judgement of one million dollars against the woman who her husband cheated with ******i dont think anyone is accusing u at least i am not, i think most of the people are reacting strongly on this subject cause it is so devasting to the person who has been cheated on

I would say both. You know it is wrong and are doing it anyway.

Yes, actually it does if she has knowledge of the relationship! The couple commits adultery as a whole according to the Bible.

Yes

Enlightened One

Adultery is a 2 way street ...yes it counts the same.

Both people are losers.

Don't down play your role in the matter. Don't want to sound cruel but you are contributing to him being and adulterer. Even if you are not the one committing adultry, you are still fornicating which is still a sin. A sin is a sin. No big ones, no little ones.
