Men: is all the posturing about marrying a virgin a way of avoiding the...

...uncomfortable truth? Since many women are having sex with the same few men, since the number of sexual partners is more evenly distributed among women while with men, a few have many, many partners, while most have relatively few, and since the men having many partners tend to be the most attractive, most men will have to accept a reality they may not find too appealing...

Most men will end up married to a woman who has had more, and more attractive partners than he has. That's just the way the numbers pan out.

(Women who want to dispute this, please don't bother: this isn't even addressed to you.)

So the question is: how does a man deal with that reality? How does his ego accept that? I mean: once he gets past the posturing (and for most men, it is posturing) that he's some sort of "player" but is somehow going to end up marrying a virgin?
Maybe you're an exception or maybe you're fooling yourself. I am just describing the situation confronting the average man, not all men.
Marrying a woman who is not a virgin and marrying a woman who has had more and more attractive partners than you are not really the same thing. I am asking about the latter. I regard the former as something most reasonable men have long since accepted.
