Are men the weaker sex?

74. Yes, I just have that theory

that the sexual revolution released everyone from the requirement of marriage, so it might tend to go back to the way it was, but without actual marriages, thus the jock gets to date a lot of women and others don't get any. They don't even have to support them.

In some Muslim countries, they can still have multiple wives, limited to 4, say, so long as they can support them. But in modern America life, no man has to support a woman if he doesn't want to and doesn't have to marry one to get sex, so the system is informal. He may not even have to support his wife. The kids he does, though, and since he's such an alpha male, he may have several by many women, but that could get expensive enough to discourage that. It's probably more economical to have all the kids in one house by one woman.
