By Ian Douglas. My colleague Emma Wall has written today about how she believes first-date sex makes men think of women as slutty. I couldn't disagree more with her piece. Those in favour of waiting who style themselves as romantics are little better. A woman needs to hold on to that power for as long as possible and use it as a tool to keep him interested until he starts to develop feelings for her.
These people need help. When psychologists weigh in, unfortunately, they only compound the problem. If the guy is a player, first-date sex more often leads to distain for a woman. Perhaps, Dr Walsh, men who quickly perceive diminished attractiveness in their girlfriends are more likely to seek out new ones, and are therefore likely to have a greater number of partners.
The entertainment industry does little to help. This idea that men assess women on their willingness to put out early in a relationship is a trope of romantic fiction and agony columns with little or no basis in reality. Women are born to date funny men. Wedding wisdom. First-date sex still only results in disdain for women. Women love erotica. They always have and always will. Offering a seat to a woman is dangerous. How men can 'think like women' to succeed. Some men make judgments about some women.
These men have their own problems and can be ignored. Legends and sluts? Men and women. Terms and Conditions. Style Book. Weather Forecast. Accessibility links Skip to article Skip to navigation.
