Why do men report more sexual intercourse than women?

One of the most consistent findings from studies of human sexual behavior is that men report a significantly higher number of sexual partners than women.

In theory, the numbers reported by average men and women should be almost the same, right? However, we can clearly see how we often report twice as many partners as the fair sex (on average, seven for women and 14 for men). Why is this happening?

Men, on the other hand, tend to generalize those cases when sex did not work out, but basic consent was given (for example, when the amount of alcohol affected the erection, but the girl did not object).

3. men tend to average indicators (many said “well, about 10” and “about 15-20”).
