I think the radio show hosts make a valid point when they say that if the tables were turned and a girl was calling to break up with her cheating boyfriend, the comments that they received would have been very different. More people would have supported a woman catching her cheating boyfriend.

I'm so tired of this double standard. She cheated on him for 5 years and her boyfriend trusted her enough to feel at ease "knowing" that this guy was her best friend and not someone who she was messing around with. Trust is earned and over the course of 5 years, she earned his trust only to have him find out years later that she was completely untrustworthy. She gives a bad name to women who have legitimate best friends of the opposite sex with whom they are not trying to have sexual relations.

Only idiots handle their business in the public domain. There's no double standard in being an idiot.
