What does a cheating husband look like? According to a new survey by AshleyMadison.com, a dating site for married people looking to have affairs, he’s likely in his 40s, been married for over 10 years and has two children over 10 years old. Of the 11,453 fathers surveyed (all of whom have accounts on the website), the largest percentage of would-be cheaters work in the IT/Engineering field, a career that’s moved up on the list since placing fifth in 2010’s survey. Here’s the full round-up of occupations that harbour the most cheating husbands: IT/engineer (10.6%), financial industry (8.2%)
education (6.5%), doctors (4.6%) and lawyers (3.8%). What about cheating wives? In May, the site polled 2,865 of their married female members and found that the typical cheating married woman was in her 30s, married for five years or less and had a daughter under three years old. She is also likely to be a teacher, a stay-at-home mom or work in the medical industry, according to a representative from Ashleymadison.com.
