From the Paper:

"Why are men more prone to committing adultery and why do some seemingly happy and satisfied wives seek sexual alternatives? These questions that seek to explain infidelity have so far remained elusive. The concept of human emotions and the instinctual need to reproduce is something that remains undeniable. Sexual instincts or the 'mating' instinct is strong in most animals and humans are no exception. Evolutionists are now claiming that the human's male and female's are prone to be unfaithful at a certain time during their biological body clock."
