TORONTO - They may have success in bringing home the bucks, but new research suggests female breadwinners may be less victorious in the love department when it comes to their male partners staying faithful.

The study found that men who are economically dependent on their female partners are more likely to cheat on them. What's more, the results proved to be quite the opposite when gender and breadwinner roles were reversed.

Women dependent on male partners were less likely to cheat, according to research presented Monday at the annual meeting of the American Sociological Association in Atlanta.
 
"It's when the man ... doesn't have a strong sense of himself, and he needs to have some sense of 'I'm powerful over somebody,' they'll go out and seduce somebody."

Called insecurity.
