This implies that there's some sort of evolutionary advantage to getting sloppy seconds. I don't know how I feel about that.
Everyone loves a good underdog story.
ftfy
Well, do you think women consent was at thing back in the early days of homo sapiens?
Yes I do. Do I think every sex was consensual? No. Do I think at least 1% of women had at one point consented to sex? Yes.
nah poligamy were just the norm
Polyamory is the word you're looking for polygamy assumes marriage
oh, i didn't knew that thanks
However "-amory" implies romantic relationships. We're talking sexual interactions, not love.
When discussing animal social behaviours, "polygamy" is used.

Oh, so that's why it's such a turn on, it's evolutionary advantage!
We are animals, monogamy is not a part of humanity like it is in penguins.
Our penises reshaped over millenia of orgies just to get all the other guys cum out. We are sluts of the animal world, like rabbits
It implies that there were enough guys getting sloppy seconds for dick shape to give a reproductive advantage.
While it could have been from a lot of free love in the ancient past, I suspect it's more likely much darker than that and the evolution of cuckolds is intertwined.
I wasn't equating women with anything, nor making any sort of generalization. If that's what you saw in that, that's on you.
Female human here. I've honestly always just read it literally, a person having sex second in a multiple partner scenario, and it being sloppy down there for all involved. There's just as much guy in the statement as there is girl, doesn't seem all that problematic to me.
Second human woman here, I concur. I always just thought that term implied the...goopiness of the act itself in a humorous way
Goopiness is a great word.
Female humans on the internet?
Impossible. I call bullshit.
Please don't tell on me, I don't want to go back to the bad place.
Reddit?
shhh, mention not the name of the bad place. it triggers.
shut up
