Why Do So Many Men Get Worked Up Over a Woman’s Past?
I’ve noticed a lot of fellas get real riled up when the subject of a woman’s “body count” or past relationships comes up. You’ll hear stuff like, “A real man doesn’t want a woman who’s been around,” or “She can’t love you right if she’s been with too many guys.”
Now I get it. Nobody wants to feel like they’re just another name on a long list. But I think a lot of the anger really comes from insecurity or maybe just plain old jealousy. Truth is, in today’s world, women have a whole lot more options than men do, especially with dating apps and social media. A woman can get more attention in a day than most guys get in a year.
That kind of thing makes some men bitter. So instead of just being honest about how it feels, they hide it behind talk about morality or old-fashioned values. But let’s not kid ourselves it’s not always about what's right or wrong. Sometimes it’s just about not getting picked.
Now I’m not saying folks shouldn’t have standards, but there’s a difference between wanting someone with similar values and just being mad because the dating game feels unfair. Women have always had choices — it’s just more obvious now than it used to be. And I reckon a lot of men aren’t taking that too well.
At the end of the day, everyone’s got a past. What matters is how they carry themselves now and how they treat the person they’re with
