Actually, your statement is way too broad. For a man to be in a successful relationship where his love is bi and enjoys another woman both emotionally and physically, he cannot be jealous or insecure. I have found that most men, superficially, could handle two women at one time physically but if there is an emotional attachment to his siginificant other and there is a consistent partner of the female persuasion, then an insecure male would not be able to handle it because he feels like he cannot compete with another woman. I am sure that the rules are different and your simplistic statement might apply when the "players" are younger, immature, and in a more superficial relationship. I would also want to know your definition of what a "high value" man is. I have found out that what a man might consider high value qualities and what a woman would consider are sometimes two very different things.
i can see where youre coming from, particularly as the dynamic shifts to a long term polygamous bisexual relationship with a low value male. my statement was largely geared to more highly sexed, younger men ie low 30s max. my statement does come from experience though. the crew i hang with are...interesting lol
my definition of a high value man is of course varied, but its basically one who has all of their attraction switches turned on, is well balanced, has their financials/career sorted and so is attractive both short and long term. its hard to articulate, but we're talking about a guy who
has good social status (maybe a good job, or just how people deal with him on a day to day basis ie they come to him)
is attractive to other women and has several interested in him
is plain intelligent
is emotionally intelligent
protects his social group/family
is a leader (of men, women, social group)
is excellent in the things he does
that sort of thing.
bikinimom, you raise a good ppint - theres perceived value, and real value - but the thing with value is that in a society where there are thousands of people interacting, people with high perceived value abut low real value can only get away with it for a short amount of time, because the way human beings intereact includes testing one another for character flaws bla bla bla which influences their alignment with them. after a while, people tend to gravitate to people similar to their own value after a while, and particularly sexually, because there are hardwired drives that force us to make these decisions of sexual alignment (TEND to. there are always exceptions)
