Abstract:This paper uses two hypotheses, namely, "compensation hypothesis" and "excitement hypothesis" respectively, in an examination of the differences between men and women in viewing the quality of marriage and extramarital relationships. Based on the data from "the Survey on the Status of Health and Family among Chinese People" in 1999-2000, this study finds that women's marital experiences have a negative effect on their views of extramarital relationships, which have no close connection to their satisfaction with sex inside the marriage. Men's marital sex satisfaction, however, has a very strong effect on their attitudes towards extramarital sex, which are not affected closely by their feelings towards their partners and personal characteristics.
