Adultery refers to having sexual relations with persons other than your legally married partner.

Almost every country in the world that practices monogamy frowns at cheating, infidelity, or adultery. However, when it comes to cheating, these countries are ‘presidents, generals among the nations,” so to speak.

As per a Statista report, Thailand, also referred to as the “land of smiles,” has the highest rate of adultery worldwide, with 56% of married adults admitting to having extramarital encounters. Furthermore, according to a Durex survey, 54% of Thai males admitted to cheating on their partners, making them the most unfaithful group.

Most French people are all in favour of infidelity. France decriminalised adultery in 1975, and a Pew Research Centre survey revealed that 53% of French respondents were in favour of sexual relations that were prohibited, suggesting a high level of tolerance for adultery.

Since going public in 2010, the website Ashley Madison, which assists users in scheduling affairs, claims to have amassed about 1.1 million subscribers in the United Kingdom. This suggests that a large number of British people wish to cheat on their partners.

On our list of the top adulterous countries worldwide, Germany comes in at number three. It seems cheating is a way of life for the Germans. According to a World Population Review study, 45% of German married people admit to having cheated on their partners.

In May 1978, a revision was made to the Spanish penal code that removed adultery as a crime. This could have had a significant role in the increase in infidelity cases in Spain. Approximately 30% of Spanish respondents to a 2018 Statista Research survey acknowledged having had one to three sexual partners over their lifetime.
