In recent cultural discussions, some have argued that because men were historically hunters, providers, or pursuers, it is somehow natural or inevitable for men to desire multiple women or engage in cheating. This argument attempts to frame unfaithfulness as something biologically unavoidable or simply part of masculine nature. However, the Bible does not support the idea that a man “has to cheat” because of his nature. Scripture consistently teaches that human beings are responsible for their choices and are called to practice self-control, faithfulness, discipline, and obedience to God.

In Gospel of Matthew chapter 19, Jesus was asked about marriage and divorce. He responded by pointing back to God’s original design from Genesis.

Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”
— Matthew 19:4–6 KJV
