Jamaica Observer: More women are cheating on their partners, a feature of changing gender roles in the Caribbean, according to a tri-nation study carrried out in Jamaica, Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
The report, commissioned in 2011 by Panos Caribbean and which is to be released here this month, also confirmed “very strong links” between infidelity and transmission of HIV, the virus which causes AIDS.
“In highlighting infidelity, focus must be on the role of both men and women in perpetuating the spread of HIV. While in the past, it was usually the men who played the field, now many Caribbean women are doing the same,” the Panos Caribbean study said.
