 {{Quote|"The plasticity of the female sex ''drive'' [note: not just behaviour] offers greater capacity to adapt to changing external circumstances as well as an opportunity for culture to exert a controlling influence. From the global perspective of the broader society, if controlling people's behavior is the goal, women's sexual patterns are more easily changed than men's."}}
-This observation is in line with women's [[sex drive#Female_passivity|passive sexuality]], higher agreeableness and conformity<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#90.25_of_victims_of_workplace_mass_hysteria_are_women</ref> meaning women may tend to more likely comply with whatever rules are imposed on them. In fact, women may have been selected for conformity due to the historically highly prevalent social rules constraining their reproductive behavior for the purpose of [[paternity assurance]].
+Roy offered a few possible explanations
+*Women have to change their minds about sexual opportunities more than men because of being [[sexual selector]]s,<ref>Baumeister referencing (Buss &
+Schmitt, 1993)</ref> making their inherent sexuality more flexible to environment, and this suggests that women follow broader sexual scripts.
+*Male power, physical strength, and political power gives them leverage to coerce women into being sexually flexible
+*Women's weaker sex drive makes it more prone to being malleable than mens
