Contrary to | Contrary to the general impression within the [[manosphere]], there is not much evidence of female promiscuity having sharply increased in recent decades, with female promiscuity seeming to have stabilized in the 1980s in most Western countries. In [[demographics#Germany|Germany]], [[demographics#France|France]], and the [[demographics|In the U.S.]], sexlessness has increased for women in the recent decades, likely due to weaker monogamy norms, later marriage, feminism shifting women's focus from reproduction to work, increasing social atomization, low birth rates and the resulting 'helicopter' parenting. | ||
For the U.S. studies are indicating a shift from an average of 2 | For the U.S., studies are indicating a shift from an average of 2 lifetime sexual partners for women and 6 for men in 1970 to about 4 partners for women and 6 for men in 2006,<ref>http://www.claremontmckenna.edu/pages/faculty/welliott/Sexrevns.htm</ref><ref>http://www.iub.edu/~kinsey/resources/FAQ.html#number</ref> however, the first study reports medians and the second means, and this change can also be possibly explained by women having become more honest about their sexual lives. | ||
Nonetheless, a minority of women | Nonetheless, a minority of women does seem to have "lots of sex" and can get it substantially more easily than men,<ref name="ref33">https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_get_2-3_times_as_many_casual_sexual_relationships_from_Tinder_than_men</ref> | ||

This figure may be explicable by women's ruthless drive to exploit their generally higher mating market value by maximizing the number of men who are competing for their affections, in effect leading men on and only choosing a minuscule number of them to have sex with, as there does not seem to be evidence of the general population of contemporary women being wildly promiscuous in comparison to men. However, this seems to vary by age cohort. | |||
A minority of men also has plenty of sex, perhaps more than ever before.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#The_top_5-20.25_of_men_.28ie._.22Chads.22.29_are_now_having_more_sex_than_ever_before</ref> | A minority of men also has plenty of sex, perhaps more than ever before.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#The_top_5-20.25_of_men_.28ie._.22Chads.22.29_are_now_having_more_sex_than_ever_before</ref> | ||
So, even though people, in general, have overall [[demographics|less sex]], and there is possible a larger amount of people who have very little sex, a "sexual elite" appears to have much more. | So, even though people, in general, have overall [[demographics|less sex]], and there is possible a larger amount of people who have very little sex, a "sexual elite" appears to have much more. | ||
Perceptions of increasing female promiscuity may be driven by a substantial minority of sluts engaging in [[dogpill|increasingly shameless sexual behavior]] and disseminating proof of these acts online for mass consumption. | |||

One could argue that the (historically unusual) large amount of young single women play a role in this, with these women not having a male partner to induce them to dress more modestly and with these women also being prone to dressing in a revealing manner to advertise themselves sexually to desirable male partners, also increasing intrasexual competition among both sexes. | One could argue that the (historically unusual) large amount of young single women play a role in this, with these women not having a male partner to induce them to dress more modestly and with these women also being prone to dressing in a revealing manner to advertise themselves sexually to desirable male partners, also increasing intrasexual competition among both sexes. | ||
[[anglo girls|There are countries]] where female promiscuity does seem to be extreme in terms of sexual promiscuity. For example, a 2000 survey conducted by the condom manufacturer Durex found that New Zealand women reported an average of 20.4 sexual partners, much higher than the New Zealand male average of 16.8.<ref>http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/22444/Kiwi-women-most-promiscuous-in-the-world</ref> | |||
New Zealand was the only country in the survey where women confessed a higher average sexual partner count than men. | New Zealand was the only country in the survey where women confessed a higher average sexual partner count than men. | ||
So there do seem to be substantial country-level variations in female promiscuity and sluttiness, even among Western countries, and arguably also variation between different subcultures. (However, it should be noted that the survey by Durex has been criticized for undersampling, a criticism that reveals a lack of statistical nous as even relatively small surveys can be valid as long as the sample is representative of the general population).<ref>https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/05/12/methods-101-random-sampling/</ref> | So there do seem to be substantial country-level variations in female promiscuity and sluttiness, even among Western countries, and arguably also variation between different subcultures.
