Look at ancient times. The men are running around, first they are young boys sleeping with older men, and then they become young men and sleep with each other and with women, and then they become older men and chase after young boys meanwhile they also have wives and lady slaves that they have sex with, or they have the four wives or whatever the fuck their culture allows. Meanwhile the women are sitting home with their legs closed waiting for husband dick. It's all about culture and society.

Women of this era grew up with women being extremely sexualized. Even playing cellphone games on my phone, I see it. There are so many advertisements for other cellphone games or apps and it's all hyper-sexualized big breasted, scantily clad women and young girls. There was one ad recently for a 6ix9ine music video with jiggling woman butts everywhere (I'm literally playing a game meant for little kids, how is this happening?) I had to watch that thing (five seconds of it) over 30 times in 2 days to get all my game points. This is all meant for the male gaze, but women are human too, they see it and they internalize it. They want to be one of the boys so they start sexualizing women too. I mean it's much more deeper than that, I'm over-simplifying it but you get what I mean. Would you say women in 1860 were sexually fluid? Would you say women in Saudi Arabia in 2021 are more sexually fluid? It has a lot to do with culture.

Love this answer. Was gonna take a stab at it but I like yours better. I think it's a highly questionable assumption to just blanket-assume that women (female sex) are all more sexually fluid just because of their sex and not socialization, e.g. through sex stereotypes... and yet I have heard people I know IRL parrot this shit like it's proven scientific fact.
