Nonsense. Men are not hormone driven alley cats. They are perfectly capable of holding to moral standards as they expect women to. Laying all the responsibility at women’s feet is lazy and blame shifting.

• It's only the "top" 10-15% of all men (the so-called "playas") who are getting any "action." Vast swathes of the male population are virtually "invisible" to women. So the majority of all men are blameless here.
• The testosterone level - responsible for the sex drive - of men is 7 to 8 times than that of women. It thus costs women far less "self-control" to abstain from wanton sex with multiple partners than it costs men.

It’s still blame shifting responsibility.

No, it's assigning well-deserved blame to the parties (here: the females) who actually have most of the power and thus most of the responsibility in the situation.

In their late-teens and early 20s, women hold all of the cards. They are at peak Sexual Market Value. It's a Seller's Market for women. They have all the agency. They thus bear the lion's share of the blame.

The majority of men are regarded as worthless and forced to keep the margins. And our "woke" society now amplifies these forces.
