I like the shout out, but I wasn’t implying woman loose value when they have sex with more ppl. This is red pill narrative, I don’t subscribe to at all. My point is a lot of people judge their social status, based on their romantic status and options, and having someone loyal to you, even though in realit, they could be having sex with someone of higher status. This is why there is a cultural push back even from woman to poly relationships. Mediocre men having their mates sleeping with people will reinforce where they are in the social hierarchy, and cause resentment, just like economic status causes resentment. People are very status driven with men being more status driven at the median and extreme. This is a theoretical concern, as we have not seen how poly relationships play out in a large scale when woman are financial independent, and even men who make low six figures probably don’t have enough disposable income to make woman forego another mate who is offering emotional labor.
