WOMEN are monogamous, men are not. This is our heterosexual script, dating back 10,000 years, which tells us that when it comes to relationships, we are either swans or rabbits. Women are swans, mating for life, showing less interest in sex as time passes (“not tonight dear”). Men are rabbits, always keen to have as much sex as possible with as many partners as possible. This is because men like sex more than woman. Women bond with one man, and that’s it.
