Are Women Bigger Liars Than Men?
Susan Shapiro Barash, author of "Little White Lies, Deep Dark Secrets: The Truth About Why Women Lie," interviewed 500 women nationwide who answered her Craigslist ads seeking females to confide what they fib about. And this is some of what she found:
* 75 percent lie about how much money they spend.
* 50 percent harbor "mixed feelings about mothering."
* More than 60 percent cheated on their husbands.
Women read Craigslist? There's lie #1.
MISS-LEADING
THE TRUTH ABOUT GALS' SERIAL FIBBING

Adulterer Lauren Cleri, 26, got caught lying on national TV when a lie
detector buzzed as she claimed she was a good person.
March 2, 2008 -- Deceit, thy name is woman.
Most females lie "more cleverly and successfully than men" about everything from infidelity and facelifts to barhopping and shopping binges, according to a new book.
"Women lie as a survival technique, but also to get what they want," said Susan Shapiro Barash, author of "Little White Lies, Deep Dark Secrets: The Truth About Why Women Lie," published by St. Martin's Press this week.
Barish said a Rockland County woman stripped of her secrets on Fox TV's reality show "Moment of Truth" last week proves her research true.
Lauren Cleri, 26, admitted on air she had cheated on her NYPD cop husband and preferred an ex-boyfriend. But she failed a polygraph, and lost $200,000, by answering "yes" when asked if she believed she was a good person.
"It supports my thesis that women are talented at lying - but perhaps not enough to pass a lie-detector test," Barash said.
Barash interviewed 500 women nationwide who answered her Craigslist ads seeking females to confide what they fib about. Among her findings:
* 75 percent lie about how much money they spend. For instance, they sneak purchases inside their homes after shopping or hide the price tags.
* 50 percent harbor "mixed feelings about mothering." One told Barash, "I look at these children and I crave sleep and free time. They wear me out and make me jealous of working women who have no children, no husbands."
* More than 60 percent cheated on their husbands. A 32-year-old mother conducted her trysts while telling her trusting husband she was working late. Even in asking for a divorce, she withheld the truth: "I didn't say I had fallen for another man. He was better off with my lies."
Many women use the "betterment lie," as Barash calls it, as a means to an end.
A 30-year-old model romanced a middle-aged married man for the money. After snagging him, she faked her affections: "I say 'I love you,' and don't mean it."
Some lie to cover up childhood incest or domestic abuse, or taboo behavior like drinking, gambling or Internet-porn addiction.
More than 80 percent believe in "beneficial lying." A New Jersey mom doesn't tell her well-behaved daughter about her own wild teen years of marijuana and partying.
Urban women favor the "competitive lie," Barash said. "You lie about money and cosmetic surgery. Your out-of-work husband is a 'consultant.' You embellish your kids' accomplishments, or downplay their SAT tutoring."
In the "lying to yourself" category, the book mentions Hillary Rodham Clinton, who as first lady went on TV to blast the Monica Lewinsky scandal as a political attack against her husband. She later acknowledged Bill's cheating.
Others lie because "there's too much to lose," Barash said. Rudy Giuliani's wife, Judith, guarded a secret that she was married twice, and not once, previously. The truth, which Rudy apparently knew, hit the front pages when he ran for president.

Generally speaking I would say yes. The main reason being that women are not as aggressive and outspoken and are more likely to use manipulation to get what they want. Men, are more likely to take what they want and tell it how they believe it to be.

Oh yes, how about the 'I have a boyfriend.' lie.
Well, what's his name? I ask.
Uh.. Mike.
Mike what?
This usually makes them flee.
I remember being in college and some faggoty pasty fucks and their fat women (wiccans) came into our religion class to tell us about Wicca. The said that women were more spiritual than men and intrinsically better. I said 'That's a load of Bullshit.' The professor told me that we were not to make value statements. And no I am not a Christian.

You can pretty much always tell when a female is lieing, her lips are moving.

Unfortunatly yes......... all women lie more, if they say they don't...they are lying. Trust me, I know, I am a woman. But men do more vile & disgusting acts than women, when it comes to rape, child molestation, animal abuse, ect. ect. ect........ so I guess we are still better as a human being than males are, sorry guys, but this is a fact, man is the worst creature on the face of this planet. Facts don't lie.

No, men are just convicted more often and now women have zero problems with murdering their offspring and claiming it was all because of men or some hormonal post partum depression. Women have mastered the legal system and used it to destroy the family and the white race. For that you are 100% accountable and you still rarely see white men fucking niggers.

women can get away with more than men and that's why they're bigger liars
never trust:
1) a chick (edit: there are a lot of honorable women out there. the women of VNN for example )
2) a cop
3) a man that goes to work in a suite

Wrong. Men COMMIT more violent crimes, that is why they are CONVICTED MORE OFTEN. DUH...it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out! Women do not master the legal system, the only legal issues women screw men over on royaly, are divorce, 90% of the time they get everything they ask for. Which isn't fair, but that doesn't put them at the top for violent crimes either. And that is a joke to blame women for the decline of our race, YOU WHITE MEN ARE THE REASON OUR RACE IS SPINELESS & PATHETIC! Look at all the outspoken nigger leaders that raise hell on a daily basis for their race, WHERE THE FUCK ARE OUR WHITE MEN???? WATCHING NIGGER FOOTBALL, BASEBALL, AND DRINKING BEER!!! NOT ONE SINGLE WHITE MAN IS BRAVE ENOUGH TO BECOME AN OUTSPOKEN OPPONENT FOR OUR CAUSE!!! The only thing you said that is TRUE, is that white men rarely date or marry nigger women. Wow.... that doesn't make up for everything YOU DON'T DO RIGHT!!! You should be our mentors to look up to in fighting the evil races that are hell bent of destroying our people, but instead some men are like you blaming women for all YOUR short comings, instead of pointing the finger at yourselves. Get a reality check, you definately need one. The truth hurts, doesn't it? ;)

men swallowed the lie that women want a "nice guy", a soft effeminate wimp. real men cry and all that bs.
you are right though, men should raise their sons to be strong. teach them that cars and beer and pro sports have nothing to do with being a man

You know.....I just really can't see how threads such as this one do anything but promote divisiveness among men and women, as if there isn't already enough there.
Do I think that women lie more than men.....of course not. I've known a lot of each in my time, and we all tell those little white lies out of good manners. We all also tell lies that show us to be the kinds of people we would like to be, and we all tell lies that don't tell the whole truth when that suits us, and we all tell lies when we think it will get us something we really want.
And in doing so, it doesn't always automatically make us "bad" people.....just human I guess. There are those who are called pathological liars, who can't ever seem to make an honest statement and who always seem to be telling lies to further their own agenda, sometimes dishonest agenda. And sometimes illegal agenda.
Distinctions need to be made for what kind of lies are being told and why and what outcome is expected. If we all told nothing but the absolute truth all the time, no one would have any friends or associates. I doubt that much would ever get done. Certainly sales people wouldn't exist.
And I'm not promoting lying, for those who can't see this.
But I think we need to be promoting healing and togetherness for white men and women, not threads that set up one against the other, particularly in a no win situation. Geez, I'm just getting a little sick of that around here.

There are some areas where women are treated with kid gloves. You are right that women, sometimes are given excuses when they kill their kids,etc., but you have to be aware that there are very real biological reasons for why men tend to be more violent than women(higher levels of aggression, quickness to anger,etc.) denying this is a reality is similar to the denial that often sorrounds this topic when people are discussing blacks as opposed to whites. The argument that men are just convicted more often, also sounds similar to what is said by those who want to make excuses for the higher level of crime among blacks. Blacks are much more violence prone that whites and males are much more violence prone than females. That is why both are so much more likely to be in prison than the other.

If we took out the words women or females here, who would it be assumed we are talking about.:p

I think men and women are equally dishonest, and its tolerated today in a way that it never was in the past.
Lying is an integral part of living in this society, imagine the consequences of telling everyone in your life how you truly feel about them hahaha.
I've done it and learned that rather than lie, silence is golden colorado :D
Cheers y'all!
