I suppose if my husband overtly flirted with pretty women I would be anxious. Happily for ME, I had no worries in that regard.
The only ones I had angst about were the home wrecker ones seeking conquests no matter who or what they destroyed with their, dare I say it, promiscuous ways.
I don’t think a study needed to be conducted to arrive at those results. It’s basically, “Well, duh!”
Ditto. Never worried.
So, if the wife was to say put on 50 pounds or so and cut off sex to once a month, the man may wander.
“ must be unusual, as I’ve NEVER worried about other women in the context of competing for a mate.”
There’s an old joke about this, can flip to male or female.
A girl came up to her lady friend who was looking a little down. “What’s wrong, she asked, weren’t you supposed to get married this week?”
“Yes,” replied the lady friend. “But my best friend ran off with my fiancé.”
“Your best friend?! That’s horrible! What’s her name?”
“I don’t know. But I sure appreciate her keeping me from making a terrible mistake.”
A lot of truth in jokes. :-)
We should always bless those who prevent us from making a terrible mistake, however it is they do it.
Past 30 a woman is more likely to poach another woman’s man. Not because she is interested in a relationship, but because she is seeking validation as an attractive woman.
The irony is the farther ages past 30, the more vulnerable she becomes to the predations of married lotharios.
So you're saying the sweet spot is post-menopause but pre-obesity?
They see the threat and as often as not, misbehave accordingly.
Hey ladies! Want your husband to stay home and not go chasing skirts? Give him what he wants regularly, whether you’re in the mood or not. He’s always in the mood. If you’re stingy, he’s searching.
I can think of one...
Don’t try to understand women, women understand women and they hate each other.
I think their next study will reveal that water is wet.
I take it the authors of this study don’t date much.
I always told my wife that I would never cheat. I also told her that I did not get married to be celibate either.
Stayed married 35 years till her passing last year.
“ their apparent willingness to compete for men and their physical ability to attract them.”
Duh.

Some women like to go after men in a relationship.
Every time I was dating or in a serious relationship, other women would come on to me.
When single...crickets.
Must be the scent of a woman! /groan
I am a firm believer in the scent of woman, and it works both ways. They can tell if you’ve been on an extended losing streak and won’t have anything to do with you.
My eyes tell me that obesity hits (for those that let it) far, far before menopause. I don't get how even the young ones don't seem to care. I've been overweight before and hated every minute of it.
They needed a “study” to figure this out? Who was paying for it—USAID?
