Did you feel that your relationship was more passionate at the beginning than it is today? And that he puts in less effort? You might be right. Men try harder to sexually satisfy their partner when it comes to casual relationships.
Our neighbors the Americans are experts in behavioral studies. And one of them shows that men tend to put more effort into their Friends with benefits arrangements. And the more they vary, the more willing they are to perform feats in bed. So, when you know that the person you are seeing is seeing other people, you would go to greater lengths to make them climax. Unlike women.
Multiplying casual relationships is exciting for men

This is what a study by the State University of New York, published in the journal Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences. According to it, young men would try to satisfy their partner more when they are in competition (if we can call it that) with others. Would you have a little competitive spirit? Nooo, of course not, what is this nonsense, right?!
In any case, you are ready to redouble your efforts for your no-strings-attached relationships. The stakes of performance are high at the same time. Your partner frequents other men and can therefore “compare”. So, you are ready to transform yourself into a sex beast and make pleasure last. It is impossible that you are not the best.
A feeling of danger for men, not shared by women
For you, ladies, you benefit from this little male squabble. A change in behavior and feeling that puts you in the number one spot and as the big winner of this rivalry. Without men even being aware of it in the end. Men still have one good point. Indeed, they have admitted to having orgasms that are “easier to achieve” but also “more frequent and longer” when their conquest knows she is not the only one they are seeing. On the other hand, you don’t have this female rivalry. Indeed, even if you know you are not the only one, it won’t push you to do “better.” You don’t feel threatened.
But then, how to explain this phenomenon? According to authors Rebecca L. Burch and Gordon G. Gallup Jr., it’s purely scientific. They claim that the human penis changes shape (the glans widens in particular) in order to “displace” the sperm left by another man in the female genital tract. To replace it with his own, therefore. A sort of instinctive technique to ensure reproduction.
Okay for infidelity, but does it also work for adultery?
Well, this study could concern everyone. And not just those who freely frolic. Indeed, when you look closely, you realize that 27.4% of participants stated they were unfaithful to their partner. Moreover, 34.3% of them revealed that the person with whom they were cheating on their partner was doing the same on their side. Another fairly high figure: 26.8% of the panel admitted to having already played the role of the lover. So if you’ve broken your marriage contract, or if you’ve experienced a simple online affair, these figures might reassure you.
However, this study should be taken with a grain of salt. The survey sets aside important data such as the nature or duration of the relationships surveyed. Because there is a difference between casual one-night stands, year-long relationships, or a marriage of several years. Feelings are not taken into account here. Last black mark, the respondents were only young heterosexuals. So it’s not really representative of the population.
