* GirlOnGirlIsHot: One segment segment recommends casual same sex experimentation and conclude with "forget the guy, giver her a try." This is something which Guy Code never recommended nor discussed.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: Pretty much the entire cast is either this or full on TheLadette. Given most of the subject discussed involve, well, drinking and partying, it wouldn't be very useful to have a quiet teetotaller's advice.

Your Cheating Heart is an index, not a trope.


A Creator/{{MTV}} series which discusses a deal of tips and tricks for the modern young woman in the city. It is a DistaffCounterpart and {{spinoff}} of ''Guy Code'' on [=MTV2=]. Each episode has the cast (composed primarily of female actors, musicians, and comedians, though there are several guys as well) discussing four topics (such as [[YourCheatingHeart cheating]], [[ButWeUsedACondom pregnancy scares]], [[TheLadette being farty]], and many other aspects of life). Between these segments are the occasional vignette showing comical encounters a girl might run into, and segments like "Is That Weird?" (where a member of the cast shares an anecdote or habit and asks if it's weird.

* ViewersAreGoldfish: Between the opening that shows clips from throughout the show, commercial breaks that show multiple talking heads before each break, and a recap at the end of each episode, about half of each episode is shown twice.
* YourCheatingHeart: Had its own segment, and frequently comes up in other segments. The general idea is it's an awful thing that no one should ever do... but everyone will eventually do it anyway.

adorkable cleanup, now it's YMMV. removing misuse and ZCE, and moving appropriate examples to YMMV


* {{Adorkable}}: Esther Ku and Carly Aquilino qualify, both being a bit stilted in their speech but it makes them more endearing.

!!This work includes examples of the following tropes:

* ADateWithRosiePalms: Discussed very frequently.
* {{Adorkable}}: Esther Ku and Carly Aquilino qualify, both being a bit stilted in their speech but it makes them more endearing.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Discussed. Long story short, they decide that yeah, they do... even though it's a bad choice.
* AllMenArePerverts: A fairly significant amount of advice on the show boils down to "guys will bone you for anything."
* AllWomenAreLustful: ... and on the flipside, well, a lot of the girls' comments boil down to "well we'd bone them back."
* TheLadette: Many of the women in the talking heads segments.
* NiceGuysFinishLast: Subverted in the "Bad Boys" segment. Even though they also freely admit that at this point in their lives, they do get the short end of the stick, the cast as a whole says that, in the grand scheme of things, nice guys usually wind up in a better place in life so girls should be pursuing them.
* SassyBlackWoman: Most of the black female cast, though Nicole Byer is the foremost example.
* UniversalAdaptorCast: There's no continuity in the clips played out between talking heads segments, so the girls can play any role.
* ViewersAreGoldfish: Between the opening that shows clips from throughout the show, commercial breaks that show multiple talking heads before each break, and a recap at the end of each episode, about half of each episode is shown twice.
