Considering how little we know about the situation what makes you think she was the seducer and not the employee? Seems somewhat sexist to think the woman is the one to blame.


Seems a bit more sexist to assume that if she was the "seducee", that she was somehow helpless to prevent herself from sleeping with the guy.

The known quantity is that she was married to the OP. It's her responsibility to not sleep with someone else or terminate the marriage if she decides that she wants to


Sure, but we still get to judge that the guy is also a piece of shit.


I never made a judgement about whether she should have broken her marriage vows or not.


You said we shouldn't blame her necessarily, implying there would be some circumstance which absolves her of responsibility in the matter


I am pointing out it's sexist because the grandparent post automatically assumed the woman to be the initiator in this affair.

Now did she break her marriage vows? Yes. That's unrelated.
