    Adultery \A*dul"ter*y\, n.; pl. {Adulteries}. [L. adulterium.
    See {Advoutry}.]
    1. The unfaithfulness of a married person to the marriage
    bed; sexual intercourse by a married man with another than
    his wife, or voluntary sexual intercourse by a married
    woman with another than her husband.

    Note: It is adultery on the part of the married wrongdoer.
    The word has also been used to characterize the act of
    an unmarried participator, the other being married. In
    the United States the definition varies with the local
    statutes. Unlawful intercourse between two married
    persons is sometimes called {double adultery}; between
    a married and an unmarried person, {single adultery}.
