A male stripper has revealed that working in the industry has taught him that women are just as likely to cheat as men.

Nath Wyld has witnessed the Australian cheating culture up close while working at numerous bachelorette parties.

The 31-year-old, who used to be a tradesman, said he has had some wild experiences working at parties where no one’s partner is around.

“I was once doing a party where I’d travelled interstate and every single one of the girls in the bachelorette party cheated on their partners,” he told news.com.au.

“It was so crazy, and they all made a pact that they would never talk about it again.”

He explained that the amount of cheating is abnormal for a bachelorette party, but it isn’t uncommon.

Wyld claims some kind of cheating occurs at one in every 10 parties he works at. He said the numbers could be larger because people aren’t forthcoming about their single status and people aren’t always double-checking.

“Lots of girls tend to sleep with strippers in general, and they also might not tell you that they are cheating on their partner with you,” he said.

Wyld said that when he started working bachelorette parties, he was “surprised” by how crazy the girls got, and he reckons they behave no better than men do at stag parties.

“The narrative is always that the guys are always the worst, and they f*** up more, especially in a bucks party setting, but what shocked me is that women are no different,” he said.

In fact, Wyld said he believes women, in some ways, can be worse because they don’t think they’ll get caught or their partners are less worried in the first place.

“Women are the same in that setting when there’s no guys around, and they do the same, and they probably take more risks, because I think they can get away with it being a girl.”

He said he isn’t shocked by the cheating any more because he has “seen a lot”, and it has become part of the job.

“I’d say about one in 10 brides cheat,” he said.

Despite what he has seen it hasn’t made him cynical about his own dating life or relationships and he still believes in monogamy.

“If you find the right person, then you know that’s not going to happen. You just have to trust your partner.

“If you have a partner, you have to trust that it’s not going to happen and you won’t be put in that situation,” he explained.

“I think everyone’s different, and everyone makes their own choices and you can’t be 100% certain, but you have to trust that the person you are with just wouldn’t do that.”
