I don't know if someone can help me out here. There was a story that I read that was pretty awesome to me and I'd like to find it again. Basically, three women were on a game show and the losers get turned into "fuck bunnies" on this island resort. Each question that was answered incorrectly resulted in a brain drain on the women.
If someone knows where this is, I will be so incredibly grateful.

Actually evolutionary psychology has an explanation for this. I forget the name of the psychologist that coined the phrase, but he said, "Sperm is cheap, eggs are expensive". Thus, a man who is promiscuous is considered by society as a "hero", since he can go about and fertilize many females. Females on the other hand are not as flexible with reproduction and have to protect the child while it is being born. So, when society considers a promiscuous female a "slut" it is a defensive measure to ensure successful reproduction.
Keep in mind, I don't support this view 100%, is see what the psychologists are saying, but it does seem overly sympathetic to men. The more you know! |

Or you could suggest it, instead of order it, lampy. Or make it yourself if you're keen to help.

I just figured I'd add my two cents. I spend a good month last semester writing a report on gender and psychology and thus it came to mind when people started talking about the double standard issue.

So in sum, there's no reason (at least on an evolutionary basis) for the instinctual responses to male and female promiscuity to change, especially given the short time frame. And hi everyone. |
