I know a girl who used to be one of the biggest sluts I'd ever met, she was on 40+ by the time she was 20. She settled down with a guy around three years ago and as far as I know she hasn't cheated and is still head over heels for this guy even now. This made me question whether a high number count does actually affect pair bonding or if it’s just nonsense bro science.

I know of the study done on the divorce rate of women with high number counts and it did show that the more partners = the greater chance of divorce. My question is how exactly this works? A women’s brain will still release the same cocktail of chemicals when she fucks someone no matter how many people she has fucked; so does she gain a tolerance or something? And surely back in the hunter gatherer days women would have fucked quite a lot of alpha males, maybe even more so than women now. So how does this inability to pair bond after fucking a high number of people work biologically?
