The same thing applies to men. How many of you guys check-in with former girlfriends or crushes on a regular basis to see if they are available. I know this has happened to every woman I know.
Well, I guess that says a lot about the people who read and take polls by the Daily Mail, lol! Seriously, OP, you must be scraping the bottom of the barrel in your search to come up with indictments against women. Or maybe not quite the bottom: you haven't posted from the National Enquirer, yet.
I wasn't searching for "indictments of women" I saw it posted somewhere else and thought it was interesting..
I've been the fallback guy three times and it is absolutely amazing when looking back on those experiences, just how hungry the women from my past were that tracked me down in an attempt to rekindle what we previously had. Two were married, and one was engaged at the time.
And when I say hungry, I mean hungry for attention, passionate sex, excitement and a chance to feel free again and almost feel like they were in control of the primary relationship they were in by re-securing a previous partner along with keeping it a secret.
I would get texts stating things that there was no way they were telling their primary partners. Engaging in sex that was out of control and on a level way beyond what they were doing with the guys they were with. The one that was engaged told me 9while laughing0 when we were laying in bed that she told her fiancé that they couldn't have sex until they were married. I was like, WTF?
What is absolutely insane, is that in two of those cases, one: the married failed and she made a transition to being with me. The second one, the wedding didn't happen and we were together for a while. . . . . .
But in each case, once I was actually in a relationship with both of those women:
I instantly became, the boring, normal, primary partner and they kept their options open for something new. And in each situation, eventually cheated on me with new fallback options.
This is the Daily Mail, so keep in mind that you are quoting something that is the scholarly equivalent of the National Enquirer. Also, it seems a given that the more attractive a person someone is, male or female, and attractive in many ways (not just physically), the more attention that person will have throughout his or her life. Other women like my husband, for instance. He's handsome, smart, and considerate--what's not to like? Attractive people are attractive. However, knowing that Bob in Accounting likes my shape and the lasagna I bring to potlucks doesn't mean Bob would be a viable "fallback partner," just someone who would probably say yes to a date. The article makes a huge stretch, but that is a Daily Mail for you.
I was just about to post this, then saw yours. EXACTLY. Having "options" doesn't mean they're on standby. Most people know SOMEONE they could and/or would date if they happened to be single, but that's not the same as having a fallback partner.
While I certainly believe what the OP says, I don't see the point of women having a backup. There are always plenty of men out there ready and eager to snap up a newly split woman. In fact I know a few myself. They've casually dated lots of them.

It's a crazy world.
It's cute that you actually admitted this with so much enthusiasm, like it's something to be proud of.
I cannot think of a single man I know who would admit to being a "fallback" once, not to mention three times. I guess I can give you credit for the optimistic spin you put on it, though. " ... because I am so good in bed!" LOL
