> Are you considering the modifier here to be the word "male"?

Yes.

> If so, your statement is simply absurd. That’s like saying the term "female cheaters" equally insinuates men and women as the cheating-gender being discussed.

No, it is not. It is like saying that the using the phrase “female cheaters” to specify which cheaters are being discussed implies that female cheaters aren't the only kind, and that there are also male cheaters which are not currently being discussed.
