- perfecthjrjth 4y agoExactly, what people say and what people do are different.
- carabiner 4y agoIt's called a revealed preference, but here, the impetus is virtue signaling. Women have virtue signaled about sexuality for thousands of years because they would be killed for not being virtuous. It's a defensive trait that has evolved over time since prehistory. A few decades of feminism, sex positivity hasn't erased that.
- nroets 4y agoIt's not just a defensive trait. It also makes them look more attractive in today's world. And it gives them a good excuse to reject a man. That's still a valid defensive strategy because rejection is one of the top reasons why men get violent.
- gedy 4y agoI like to think of it as: Women would definitely like charm, humor, success, kindness, etc - in the subset of men they were already going to sleep with.
- ekianjo 4y agoYeah that is closer to the truth.
