Do you think promiscuity affects women differently than it affects men?

Question

D_Bone_Steak · Accepted Answer

I think it does. Women tend to retard their ability to pair bond after sleeping around.

To put it another way, the female gender tends to really compare someone new to what they've been with. Like, instead of this man being an individual that his himself... he gets categized as a man. Now, somehow, he's responsible for every wrong other men has done to her, and not doing everything right that other men has done for them.

If any of that makes sense, but I don't expect a pink account to make sense out of that because I know there's a good chance that I'm just like all the other men, unless you actually think on a deeper level like that.

Really though I think for the most part, they retard their ability to pair bond. There was this statistic out there that shows the number of sexual partners equaling a certain negative aspect in relationships.

I've had sex with literally thousands upon thousands of different women... then got married and it's over 20 years now as married. My brain doesn't really judge my current partner off of some slut I banged in the bathroom at a bar. They're different people. And that's why I think our genders are fundamentally different. ... without education that is.

I mean you expect me to naturally know shit about fashion without education? I'm not even gay and can't even tell if other men are attractive or not. My male hetero brain thinks the Undertaker is the ultimate man, but I already know most chicks out there would disagree with me.

Yes, men and women are built differently. It's for a reason that men have had multiple wives at once over the course of history and still there are cultures who deem it right.

A man can impregnate multiple women at once and they will know who the father is. However, a woman who has multiple partners in her life can not know who the father is.

Women are more emotional than men and sexual inter course works more differently for them, they have more emotional value to it, men see it more as a deed of pleasure.

I think it damages them the same, just men (the ones who hook up constantly or consume too much porn) are too emotionally stunted to realise the effect it’s having on them (emotionally and mentally). They’re out of touch with their emotions, but they’ll display anger instead or go cold and moody on the women they’ve hooked up with and people think “oh he’s just UNAFFECTED” — they do this because it’s affecting them, NOT because they’re unaffected. Decent men who are emotionally intelligent and are in touch with their emotions also realised that they feel bonded to people they have sex with. Immature, porn addicted men with barely any life experience just let their emotions out in more damaging ways. I’ve noticed this through working as an escort/dominatrix/stripper… a lot of them didn’t want me to leave after the sex, which shows they felt some kind of emotional attachment and most guys wanted to cuddle or started talking about their feelings and got emotional. I think some men don’t understand what they’re feeling and why etc. whilst women do. So it’s just a matter of men being oblivious about how they’re feeling and letting it out in different (possibly more destructive) ways.

In terms of society? Women are given more pressure under purity culture, and that alongside just basic patriarchal culture can create a lot of cognitive dissonance where you have to be pure, but you can’t be a prude, but you also can’t be a slut, and you can’t be too picky about your partners, all that.

Oncewildtwiceburned · Answer

For one, parental certainty. Before DNA tests Men wouldn’t know For sure if the child was theirs until they grew up. Women generally would know.

In the harsher realities of the environment before the luxuries, we enjoy today, like air conditioning, birth control and welfare, Women were extra vulnerable when pregnant. So, women needed to be taken care of just like children. These are some reasons why women were generally regarded as property (to a certain degree) of the father/patriarch of the family or their husband in the vast majority of most cultures worldwide (its a task And takes mental gymnastics to find the few that weren’t like this).

Nowadays Men have to invest a lot of time and money, even if they’re good looking to be promiscuous without having to outright pay for it. We all pay for promiscuity in the end, each sex. One payment is that the relationships we have at the end of our lives might be bittersweet, as the other partner knows we didn’t give them the prime/younger part of our lives-We gave that to ourselves. Women generally tend to be cooler with this if the man is a good provider.

Many studies suggest that women have a harder time pair bonding after being promiscuous (their ho phase). After many thousands of years of that trait being very negative to a woman’s survival and ability to reproduce viable offspring, It makes sense. I’m sure they’ll be someone commenting with biologically more in-depth reasons as to why.

Men today also pay for promiscuity, Whether they cheat or whether their wife cheats or the mother of their children cheats on them, They usually have to pay child support And lose Time with their kids due to Family Court.

Women pay, sometimes in court, But usually in the form of raising dysfunctional children, Or never having children, Or having one child with a man (a beta provider) They’re bitter over settling with At the end of their fertile window.

Purpleronnie · Answer

My opinion is that since men generally place value in confident women with a high degree of self worth.. promiscuity is directly tied to that “self worth” and and so level of respect whether that be right or wrong so a woman with a voracious a high number of partners detracts from their perceived “worth” or value. I can’t say this is at all fair or these days but also affects men or rather “boys” as there is a growing stigma here to but still feel it’s weighted more against the fairer sex.

Personally I have never wanted to know the number of sexual partners any of my ex’s have had , me judging on that would feel ridiculous and contradictory.

Lucy68 · Answer

Men can sleep around and not get judged, in fact some of them are seen as "manly' and a "catch". Whereas, women, they're deemed as being slutty, whoreish, minx, Jezebal, etc etc. It's a double standard, sad but true and a straight facts.

ManOnFire · Answer

It most definitely does. It damages women more emotionally than it does men, even if those women don't realize or want to see it. There is a reason why a lot of female porn stars have committed suicide over the decades. A woman giving her body away to lots of people causes more inner pain to themselves than they realize.

PeachyPie93 · Answer

I think women hold onto things more then men do.. so I think most men can sleep with tons of women and not feel anything for them or even remember. But I think a woman would remember every guy and feel horrible when she really liked the dude but he just ghosts her to never be seen or heard from again.

Sadia26 · Answer

It does, because women are built to be more emotional and sensitive to energies. And sex is not just physical pleasure you do exchange energies. Women can and do engage in casual hook ups but the thought process they have... you can just tell she's broken inside after having one or two discussions.

jshm2 · Answer

Yes. You tend to get three types of promiscuous women. Those who will put out to anyone who asks, those who will put out only if drunk, can find the excuse, and those who put out if it gets them some goal.

Guys tend to be more binary. They either will cheat or they won't. You will rarely get a "only cheat once"

genericname85 · Answer

in some sense no, in some sense yes. no cause it reduces their chances to end up in a stable and satisfactory long term relationship for both pretty much equally. but yes cause women who live promiscuous are looked down upon. simply cause getting sex is easy for women. men are looked down upon for it aswell but less so, cause at least it's a challange not every man "can" do if thy wanted.

Makeushiver · Answer

I think it does if they are person is you'd after a few drinks but pretty much uninterested when aober. It really bugs me when someone needs a couple of drinks to take their clothes off. I've known women who couldn't keep their clothes on when loaded but can't seem to be interested when sober.

loveslongnails · Answer

Sure, it bothers them more. Men only pretend to care saying they want a non-promiscuous woman because it makes them "appear" righteously moral, even though their own body count is high.

All any woman ever has to do is tell a guy "I've only been with one other man before", even if she's been with 20. If he wants her, he'll believe anything she says.

SolitarySolace · Answer

Easily. Women are the only ones who can get pregnant when they have unprotected sex. If a woman has a boyfriend or is married and she is promiscuous, she isn’t just cheating she is intentionally risking the possibility of becoming pregnant with some guy who isn’t her partner. If a man does this he wouldn’t be the one getting pregnant. So yes, it affects women differently. Yet women do it anyway, because they have no sense of responsibility

Anonymous · Answer

yes promiscuity does affect women differently from men

neither are good either way but promiscuity has a much worse effect on women than men

it does boil down to biology. a promiscuous woman won't know who the father of her potential offspring are whereas a promiscuous man would know

of course a promiscuous man would then give the impression of greed and have other men turn on him as it has always been historically

Matt_M · Answer

I think it largely depends on your personality and isn't so much about gender. For me personally, I'm just not cut out for sex without at least some emotional connection. I know a lot of women are the same way but I suspect a lot are just the opposite too.

Shamalien · Answer

Of course, at least at the beginning. If a man sleeps around for long enough, he will experience similarly negative effects. Also depends how emotionally / spiritually sensitive the people in question are. Women trend more in that direction which is why they are more vulnerable to the consequences of such behaviour

Finchie40 · Answer

No , it’s pretty much the same , Promiscuous people shouldn't be in relationships period , because they only care about themselves , they are selfish people that should stay single and screw around without messing someone’s heart up

Anonymous · Answer

Only in the sense that women have lower standards than men do when it comes to promiscuity. Most men are put off by female promiscuity and try to avoid women with a promiscuous past. But women, not so much. I think it's because men value purity while women value confidence and experience.

Chthou95 · Answer

Yeah it does. A man that sleeps around had to earn it. A woman that sleeps around choose the man to sleep with. And typically women want experience in men when it comes to the bedroom because men who are experienced are more attractive and know what they're doing. For women, it can effect her because its easy to let a bunch of men inside you. a lot of men won't find that appealing

Bklynbadboy12 · Answer

Of course it does sex in general effects women differently. Just think about it every time a woman has sex she's allowing someone the privilege of entering her body. Do you know that level of trust that takes to let's someone go inside of you. So yeah it differently effects woman differently

Anonymous · Answer

No doubt. But it's becoming less so.

Men are much better at compartmentalizing thier feelings. So men are much better at casual sex without entanglement of feelings. Women generally need some kind of emotional connection.

Now as I said it's becoming less so. Women are becoming more like men.
