Fellas! Why is having sex with multiple women throughout our young lives glorified? Is it really about having a good time? Or is it a mental discrepancy?

excellent question.. i believe it could pass for a little bit of both, speaking personally i lacked self control and fell for temptation easily. i never was the type to "go on a hunt" but if an opportunity were to arise i would surely take full advantage. for what?? i have no idea, either a good time or a mental discrepancy.
i dont know when or why we started glorifying the "body count", its truly morally confusing now that my consciousness is a little different.. great question.

Aside from the "good time" it seems to be overly glorified. I recommend reading Manology by Rev Run (DMC) and Tyrese Gibson, as well as How to Get Out Of Your Own Way by Tyrese Gibson. Both speak on these issues. Sometimes a guy just likes to have sex, sometimes a guy has no commitment skills. sometimes woman (A) won't do this and woman (B) won't do that so a guy has to take from both cookie jars to feel satisfied. In a relationship, sometimes the significant other is the perfect lover but bad at making love, so the guy has to find other cookie jars. Some guys are just cookie monsters and are never satisfied not even with 100 assorted cookies. Always remember that the same can apply to the other gender with majority of what we post here. (Harsh truth) Good books though.
You have guy (A) on the block. His woman is a good 7.5 or an 8 in the beauty department. She's headed for success, loyal, cool, and a bunch of other good qualities. He's been with her for 4 years now. They are destined to be a successful couple/have a successful relationship.
Then you have guy (B) on the block. He is seen with a different woman every2 or 3 months. Sometimes more than one woman per month. Some get the rating of threes and fours and some even get eights and nines. Their job status and qualities vary accordingly. The way it's looking is that he has no commitment skills, is lacking something somewhere and he may even be a bad father if he got one of these random woman pregnant because he never loved them in the first place. Somehow.... in the eyes of everyone else on the block, this guy is the man! He's so cool. They want to be just like him. But in all reality there is nothing cool about him, the women he pulls, and everything cool about the other guy. (At least after you fully think about it that is).

A lot of it comes from a lack of self control in the face of opportunity. For example, when I was in college 80% of the women I hooked up with was a simple matter of opportunity. I found it hard to say no in certain enviroments. When i was married I had to make a conscious choice to avoid those enviroments because I knew what I could handle. As far as the glorification aspect...throughout history having multiple women or the best looking woman was seen as a matter of status and virility. Not much has changed on that front
