Paper Title
Adultery Laws-Gender Discrimination for Both

Abstract
Adultery was made a crime almost 150 years earlier by the Penal Code 1860, which removed women from all criminal responsibility. While certain aspects of the Code have been revised over time, the provisions concerning adultery have remained intact. And if the applicable legislative clauses tend to be discriminatory, judicial interpretations seem to support them. This essay examines the moral and societal implications of adultery in the twenty-first century. The rule of adultery is examined to see whether it is not only flawed, but also encourages extramarital sexual affairs. Despite the fact that the statute appears to protect people, its flaws render them more insecure in society and rob them of legal security. The article rationally establishes the importance of amending the Code by analyzing the problem from all angles.
