NO, I was talking about the fact that women who have sex with lots of men are considered sluts and men who have sex with lots of women are considered, certainly not anything as derogatory as sluts, and at best, lucky. HUGE double standard.

No, different criteria. Females (not just human females) supply sex and offspring, males supply resources (territory, food, other resources) in exchange.

A male who can get multiple females for sex is a successful male. A female who can get resources from multiple males is a successful female.

A female who gets taken out for dinner, gets males at her beck and call to do her favors, who gets males to serve her in the hope of getting enough in her good graces that she will sleep with them, and yet never delivers any, is the type which corresponds with the male "player" (who gets sex without having to deliver on commitment).

That is correct, and it fits with biology. A woman who is selective with her mate(s), has a high SMV. A woman who is not selective, has a low SMV.
