Sexual economics: Women more sexually promiscuous as "price of sex" declines

There was a time when having sex with a woman meant a wedding ring, a court ship or at the very least, dinner. But social psychologists say those days are quickly coming to an end as women become more promiscuous, Yahoo Shine reports.

Other things that are said to have contributed to these changes include gender equality, birth control and internet porn.

Yes, they should also gather the eggs, wash the clothes, feed the small ones, and code some serious X windows apps, after making my breakfast, rubbing my feet, and generally doing what I say.

Got a problem with that?

Coding apps is not woman's work. The rest is spot on.

[JRandomFreeper]

I always wear Nomex(tm) underwear.

But thanks for your concern.

Coding apps is not woman's work.

And that is why I remain single and celibate to this very day.

a) it's much safer. 
ii) I don't always get the nuances. 
3) It's fairly safe, for Aeroflot.

Rules to continue to live by.

Let's not forget internet porn. There's always a silver lining.

Thanks Slings and Arrows.

There was a time when having sex with a woman meant a wedding ring, a court ship or at the very least, dinner... Other things that are said to have contributed to these changes include gender equality, birth control and internet porn.

...and ridiculous sex discrimination in child support / visitation / custody, community property bullsh!t, divorce, constant drumbeat of hatred for (especially white) men throughout daytime TV and public schools, classic hysteria for Bill Clinton's underwear and Zero's ass formerly known from old footage of Beatlemania...

[Louis Foxwell]

Right, Johnny. Every time I consider violating my 15 yr celibacy I look more closely at the object of my desired trist and notice a web of entrapment that is not worth the momentary pleasure. The fantasy has died.

[JRandomFreeper]

I just look at my bank balance. It's much, much cheaper to be single, celibate and sane.

I think you're closer to the real reason. More men have lost interest in the idea of marriage or even long-term relationships, creating more competition among women for the men who might still be interested.

In a more competitive environment, if one girl doesn't deliver, it's easy enough to move on to the next.

“, birth control, internet porn, and fat chicks.”

Hey watch it fred!!! or my big fat white Queen Latifa a$$ will sit on you!!!

And speaking of porn, I have actually seen porn that involves women with a Queen Latifa a$$ bigger than mine!!! So there are men who dig that!!

[JRios1968]

And speaking of porn, I have actually seen porn...

For scientific purposes only, right?

SLUTS!

Where??

Is that Chaz Bono?

[PapaBear3625]

I would also add that you have a higher degree of more women chasing the same group of men. Women want a man who makes more than them, is taller, handsome, and witty. That subgroup will have a lot of women chasing them, and will get most of the action.

Then the women get disappointed because the sought-after man has more incentive to move on to the next woman than to commit to the current one.

Dude I did not see the the movie!!! Was at a flea market and a vendor had porn DVD’s in the back of his normal stash. Saw chicks bigger than me on cover wearing Victoria Secret (their size) lingerie!!! I picked it up and looked at the DVD because I was amazed! I guess in the porn world there are all kinds! I did not want to watch the movie, I needed Dramamine just to watch “the Blair Witch Project”.
