Relationship standards

I had a rather random conversation today, the upshot of which was the following:

• Why is it that the idea of a woman in a heterosexual relationship being intimate with another women is often relatively acceptable, if not arousing, to their corresponding partners? Why is the reversal involving the partner with another man generally less acceptable to the woman?


• Why is it that some men don't regard their girlfriend kissing other women as cheating yet if they kissed another man it would be a serious offence?


• Do men and women have different attitudes towards cheating and does this result in some hypocrisy in the actions of either?
