    It's because people think that if you sleep around then you constantly need reassurance that you are good enough. It's very weird though, because you would think that people with low self esteem wouldn't even want anyone to see them even half naked.

    I know it's a ridiculous assertion by people who aren't getting laid.

    Mainly because of projection.... by psychologists.
