In the latest Barna study, the data was put forward that for the most part, men and women admit to being tempted by the same things at about the same level. There are a few temptations that seem to affect men and women differently.
On the men list
- Pornography (28% versus women 8%)
On the women list
- Gossiping or saying mean things about others (29% versus men 22%)
- Jealousy or envy (68% versus men 20%)
- Eating too much (58% versus men 52%)
- Spending more money than you have or can afford (39% women versus men 32%)
I personally think eating and spending more money are really close and should be called a “temptation tie.”
