Men applaud this behavior because it benefits them and then trash the women that do it. (Now, just like you said before who cares what anyone thinks should be done, people are doing what they want anyways, I am just expressing my thoughts on the topic). Most of the men aren't going to call them wh*res to their face and why would they? That's just going to cut off their benefits isn't it? They will come online and say it behind their backs. I had so called 'nice guy' male friends who did this all the time. They sleep with these women and then call them skanks. Again, not saying it's right, but it's what they do. Let me tell you, you get a real education on how these men think when you're around them and not the type of woman they want to sleep with, LOL. IMO, it gets put out there (mostly by men) that only 'immature men' think this and 'real men don't. Whatever they're all doing the same exact thing.

Also, don't you think/agree this all further continues the man's views of women as a whole as 'disposable,' 'usable' 'downgrading them verbally?' I do I beleive it's all connected to the ways in which women allow themselves to be treated by them.
They aren't all thinking that though, and they aren't all doing the same thing. Maybe your friends were nice guys to you, but they sound like they were pretty immature. I've had plenty of guy friends who would find doing that completely distasteful.

As I said, selective women don't go for the guy whose going to be all "I got laid by this pig, brah" and high-fiving his friends. They go for men who behave like adults.

i suppose that depends on whether you find 'marital disruption' a suitable proxy for 'cheating'

The results presented in this article replicate findings from previous research: Women who cohabit prior to marriage or who have premarital sex have an increased likelihood of marital disruption. Considering the joint effects of premarital cohabitation and premarital sex, as well as histories of premarital relationships, extends previous research. The most salient finding from this analysis is that women whose intimate premarital relationships are limited to their husbands—either premarital sex alone or premarital cohabitation—do not experience an increased risk of divorce. It is only women who have more than one intimate premarital relationship who have an elevated risk of marital disruption. This effect is strongest for women who have multiple premarital coresidental unions. These findings are consistent with the notion that premarital sex and cohabitation have become part of the normal courtship pattern in the United States. They do not indicate selectivity on characteristics linked to the risk of divorce and do not provide couples with experiences that lessen the stability of marriage.

But anyway, what I find fascinating about this discussion is the anger it elicits from people who disagree -- and the fact that they have NO evidence to support their claim, but continue to repeat it, all the while demanding I provide evidence of my own. LOL.

When the evidence breaks down, it gets personal. I mean, look at the VERY FIRST responses I got.

What the hell does "stable" mean???

Pretty sure that differs from relationship to relationship. How can one report on something as diverse as stability...?

Alright they aren't all thinking that and it was only my set of male friends, LOL. I'm not going to argue with you on that one. Fine & as you wish....

On that last part, IMO, 'selective sleeping around' is an oxymoron.

Correct; that's why they collect data from multiple relationships.

This was reported as an HTML. I'm sure other ways of reporting would be acceptable, for example, paper.

And if you go further into the blogspot you posted, you'll find this:

Again, we aren't angry. You're a random guy on a message board. We just think your line of thinking is silly

But if you want to go thinking that you won the Interwebz today, go ahead

I'm not arguing with you either. You are welcome to your opinions, and there's really nothing I can say to convince you otherwise so who cares?

Does stable mean the same thing to me as it does to you as it does to your neighbor down the street? No.

People see stability in money and owning things.

Others see it in family.

Others see stability in their marriage.

Others see stability in their kids.

And?

That link is in agreement with what I said.

sure you are. otherwise you wouldn't have attacked me personally straight out the gates with accusations of "insecurity." you would've addressed the merits of what i'd said.

the only question is WHY does this make y'all angry?

We?

Is that the "Royal We" ? Are you a queen speaking on behalf of your court?

Or is this just a thinly veiled attempt at making your position seem "popular" and thus correct?
