i think men and women tell different kind of lies.  the lies men tell tend to get them in a lot of trouble.  the lies women tell don't appear to have as many ramifications and women are a little more shrewder by nature.  maybe that's because as james brown sang, 'it's a man's world, but it wouldn't be nothin without a woman or a girl.'  that woman or girl uses all kinds of coyness moves to get the man.  view some of the articles in cosmopolitan magazine.  i also have heard and seen very often when women cheat the man does not find out, like when its vice versa. women find out more when men cheat.

I really do not think lying is gender related some or a  lot of people nowdays would rather climb a 15 foot tree and tell you a lie then stand on the ground and face you and tell you the truth.  Me I guess I am just old and cranky sometimes, but I do not tend to sugar coat anything anymore......

look at the prison system.

I think the answer is woman ,but i could be lying

In my experience,  men tell more lies but then, I'm a woman and I talk to more men.........

Men tend to lie more about affairs and sex.  As for women: spending money.

I am probably wrong here but what the heck.

In my own, personal experience, it has been men. My ex husband and certain friends who lied just to be lying...........

Some people who sell cars, or anything else for that matter, are very honest.

Men tell more lies to you

As in:

"These drinks come premixed, so there not that strong."

"You know i really love you babe."

"A slut you, noway."

Women tell more lies to themselves.

As in:

"O.k. just one drink, then ill go home."

"He loves me  no, really he does."

"I'm not a slut."

why is this relevant?

Truth is that we all tell lies, it's just that you remember the ones that hurt you the most. That's what the question is really about. Women remember having their trust broken by men and visa versa. That's what my intention was behind the question...

Don't know, thanks for the heads up...
