    To have sex with multiple women. The prime-directive of our genetic code as men is to spread our seed. We discriminate very little when it comes to getting off. The woman does not generally need to be attractive to us when are goal is only to cum. An average looking woman at best works for us and even a little less attractive is okay, too. But when we want to settle down, we look for the most beautiful woman we can possibly get.

    Women are promiscuous in a similar but different way. When women are looking for sex as an end, they are typically attracted to the best looking, highest-value men. This is in contrast to men, who do not care about looks as much when simple sex is the only goal. Women are genetically programmed to seek out the best possible genes for their offspring, which is why physically strong, attractive, and confident men are targets. When women want to settle down, looks become less important — in contrast to men. A financially reliable and supportive man is desired. Alpha fucks, beta bucks.

    Of course, these are extremely superficial motivations, but you cannot overlook evolutionary instincts.

    Metaphorically, 'window shopping'---
    all have but ONE life and everyone DESIRES getting
    the greatest quality experience for the precious
    unrecoverable life's time invested.

    Many modern Female Escorts offer 'sugar daddy's
    the quality role-play of "the girlfriend experience" ~

    Because they want to find someone to love and who will love them... it's not complicated.

    In fact, men are far less complex in relationships than women... just saying.

    Well, in words similar to those of a judge who was presiding over a friend of mine for beating up his wife’s boyfriend, you can’t own a man, he’s not a piece of property, so he can’t be “taken”. In that world, anyone can do whatever they want for any reason or no reason at all.

    Many reasons , one common reason I would say that there are males who does not have a reliable or trustworthy female friend , or just for some short term pleasure , but in the end dating app does not provide appropriate / no matches at all and guys start of feel more unsecure.

    similar reasons to why taken women continue to use dating apps or post spicy material on social media I'd imagine. for validation about their looks and/or to find people to cheat with. because once there is to much drama in a relationship. most modern people bail rather then trying to figure out how to fit things.

    its all over the internet you women are damaged
    and you don't want to accept the truth

    you prefer a delusion
    so dating is fake

    so i completely understand why men find other girls

    if dating is fake
    men should just not do it

    but there are still plenty of men who do not know what I know
    so i completely understand why they get annoyed

    Because typically a woman is dragging a man who they know deep down will not stay faithful from the first day, into a relationship. Thinking the boyfriend girlfriend title will change them. Most guys are pretty honest about that if that's the type of guy they are. Maybe not come out and say "hey I'm a man whore" but will let you know. It's women who hide the truth.

    Because they might not get the love they long for from their girlfriend.
    Another reason could be that they crave more attention because they need that for their own self-confidence.

    Because unlike women who get endless attention from males in public simply by dressing slutty, men NEVER get attention, so they go on apps looking for the ego boost that girls literally live and breathe daily without effort.
