Getting divorced after discovering my wife of 25 years had been cheating on me for several years, including during a bad Covid infection. Anyway, I was looking for movies about cheating wives facing the consequences of their actions. However, I discovered these films are very rare. Usually these kinds of movies depict the Male as the cheating scumbag.

I also discovered that many of the few films which do depict female infidelity often humanize them as just needing some excitement outside the relationship, as if there aren’t other outlets besides infidelity.

The other commonality depicted with female cheaters in movies is that is somehow the man’s fault. They blame the man for the infidelity of the woman because he’s boring, he works too much or did not treat her like a princess. I think I found maybe one or two movies that actually show female cheaters getting facing the consequences of their bad decisions.

Can any of you think of any movies where are the female cheater faces the consequences of her selfishness?
