We humans find it always hard to live with contradiction. It is tough to think in one way and then behave in another. Like the married man who tells his wife he is madly in love with her then goes to bed with another woman that same night. Psychologists call this dissonance which is not easy to live with. It eats you up inside, it does not make sense. God created you with a mind that tells you when things do not add up, and when it is so, you feel uneasy. Avoiding the inner turmoil and anxiety, we need to root out contradictions in our lives. We need to come to terms with ourselves and our values. Maybe we could harmonìze our behavior with our beliefs.

That has been a male thing since time immemorial. Jacob, otherwise known as Israel, has four wives. Men, by nature, are polygamous. That patriarchal societies still exist today is bizarre. Men even take children as young as seven to be their wives. But true. Men should increase in continence. Men must reeducate themselves that human beings are actually holy creatures trying to be human.

Inner contradiction is not a gender based issue, it is something that transcends gender.

@Junbals Nymphomania is a condition for some women. Generally though, women are not promiscuous.

That married man is bad and the women should divorce him.

That looks like a logical move to do. :)

It doesn't come easily. But then it is possible to get with conscious effort and being aware of it

That's so true, we always need to give ourselves some time for self reflection, if we ain't honest and in a good terms with ourselves it's going to be hard to keep our relationships with others going smoothly
