It's just like those threads where people complain about undercutting in the AH- it's hard to justify your price when others are giving it away.

Patriarchal and religious based society.
It's because it's much more difficult to convince a bunch of women to sleep with you than it is to convince a bunch of men. It's so easy for women to get sex, some of them just stand on the side of the street and just wait for random men to drive along. They even charge for it, and the men will pay.
So that's the reason why. All a girl has to do is shout in a crowded room "I'd like some sex" and she'll have a bunch of folks standing by at the ready. There's nothing exceptional a women has to do and she doesn't have to look exceptional. A guy would have to be an exceptional alpha (or famous/rich) to make that work. Which is why if a guy does it, he's special. If a girl does it, meh.
So while the lock analogy is kinda cruddy, that's kinda supposed to be what it means.
I've always wondered who it is, exactly, that view men that sleep with many different girls in a positive light? Anecdotal as it may be, In all my years that's never been the case at least. Not among the popular guys, not among the unpopular ones, not among women, etc etc. There is of course usually a reason for why the ones that gets laid a lot manages to, and that reason is often also a reason to view them in a positive light (ie, good-looking, etc), but in my experience that is correlation only and as such largely a misconception. At the very least, one should really, really look at confounding factors before making such a general statement. Particularly so, when automatically drawing lengthy conclusions about gender roles from it.
No, it comes from people who understand how human courtship and sex works. But I can tell you fundamentally don't understand it if you think it's just about shaming women enjoying themselves, or praising the power of penis.
The anology just refers to the fact that women tend to have higher standards than men, men are more likely to be the initiators of any given encounter (and women often want them to be), and thus women are more likely to turn away multiple men in any given dating environment before they find someone suitable, than men are going to be turning away women. If you're the kind of guy that can pick up any woman you want, easily, it's noteworthy. It's not noteworthy when a sloot walks into a bar full of young horny guys and spreads her legs, because you don't even have to be attractive to have some success with it.
In the words of Amy Schumer: "I’m probably like 160 pounds right now and I can catch a dick whenever I want, like, that’s the truth. It’s not a problem!”
Religious based society has a man sleeping with one woman...ever. They don't celebrate male sluts. The reason for this is more nature then religious. In nature females breed with the alphas. You see the same thing in humans when you see females getting worked up over alpha males and celebrities, where men get worked up over most any female that crosses their path.
When females are sleeping with lesser males it risks the chance of a weaker gene pool, and there's something instinctively "wrong" about that, though our humanity struggles to come to grips with that reasoning.
You should ask religious nutjobs, right-wing nutjobs or feminists that.

I am somewhat suprised more people have not picked up on this yet....most likely because it is real biological evidence that our current social trends might not be on the right track. Anyway.....we tend to shit on any social behaviors thst came before us.....maybe people knew what they were talking about...humans are fantastic at pattern recognition....given enough examples we can spot a trend even without knowing the reasons behind it.
When this happens you have found an exceptional female. A female who can has sex with many males and restricts it to alphas only is exceptional. As as someone else noted, it's more the other women who frown upon this behavior then men. Most men would just try to take a number and hope they can get in line.
Problematic femininity and female victimhood culture.
Some very astute comments about human biology and how women view other women in a more negative light than men if they are promiscuous. Another point I'd add is the advent of reliable birth control is relatively speaking a very recent development in human culture compared to the thousands of years of human civilization.
People being knuckleheads is too shallow of an explanation, that doesn't encapsulate the whole picture.
