Women aren't the only liars...

The story shows how all of the women (except one) at the court of King Arthur are unfaithful. By being revealed as unfaithful the women are also revealed as liars. But they are not the only liars at the court of King Arthur. The men are liars as well, they even admit to it. They admit that if they told the women the truth, the women would not want to try the mantle on, so the men lied in order to get the women to try it on. So why are the women shamed and ridiculed for being unfaithful and liars, when the men are liars and deceivers as well? Why are the women seen as evil, while the men are seen as the victims? Even though it was the men who started the whole thing.
