Men are more competitiv­e than women, claims a study saying males love to break the rules. Have you ever cheated?

It’s the “alpha male syndrome”. Men want to be faster and stronger than anyone else. It’s a way of life.

James Walker

I used to cheat at Scrabble but don’t now as no one would play with me.

Ronald James

I cheated at family games when I was a child. I can’t remember any special incident but my brother and I were always warned against cheating. It wasn’t tolerated and, if found out, the game stopped immediatel­y.

Liz Kelly

I don’t see the point of cheating – you haven’t actually won, however many accolades are heaped on you. It just makes it pointless.

Elizabeth O’Regan

I may be in danger of criticism for this, but I feel men and women can be competitiv­e about different things.

Lorna Smith

Although some women are competitiv­e, a big percentage of men would be more competitiv­e. It’s in their genes.

Jean-claude Huntzinger

Women are far more competitiv­e in the personal stakes, such as with clothing, home decor, the vehicles they drive, and their offspring’s achievemen­ts. They can be extremely unethical, too!

Judi Martin

I couldn’t be bothered to cheat. If others want to win, let them.

Anne Fletcher

I have always played board games with my children and grandchild­ren, so mostly I always let them win. They are the ones who have tried to cheat.

Margaret Gibb

I have cheated but you always get found out, so it’s better not to cheat.
