You might be internalizing those movie scripts and your own lived experience. A cursory Google search indicates the opposite.

What do you mean? I am saying what happens in the movies, the movies which mostly women watch. I didn’t say it was real.

So you meant to say:

And most of the time it is women cheating in those movies.

Which, fair enough if that's what you meant.

Honestly that seems a little pedantic. I read their comment and understood just fine they were talking about those.

I mean, the rest of the comment did not help. It feels like a misogynistic critique of "how women are". Glad you were able to pick up on that interpretation; but it obviously can be read, you know, the way it is literally written.

I mean, you could only read it like that if you ignore the post's context, as well as the next sentence that clearly talks about the movies.

We were talking about movies. So yes, I was talking about what happens in movies.
