Yes. The disparity is so great, that even retribution against the perception of cheating is seen as punishment for something gotten away with in the past or for something that will be gotten away with in the future.
A lot of fixing that double standard lies with men calling out other men on infidelity, or changing their own attitudes such that they no longer consider cheating to be scandalous to anyone. Which is many centuries of institutionalized B.S. to get through.
