Detailed explanation-1: -The Coolidge effect is a biological phenomenon seen in animals, whereby males exhibit renewed sexual interest whenever a new female is introduced, even after sex with prior but still available sexual partners. To a lesser extent, the effect is also seen among females with regard to their mates.
Detailed explanation-2: -The observation that men desire more sexual partners than women do is known as the “Coolidge effect.” Under certain limited conditions, women display the Coolidge effect as well. The desire for multiple sex partners appears to increase as men get older.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Coolidge effect is a phenomenon observed in both men and women (and male and female animals) in which an increased willingness to have sex in the presence of new receptive partners is demonstrated (Brown, 1974). In other words, it alludes to the tendency to notice and feel attracted to novelty in the sexual field.
Detailed explanation-4: -Some evidence for the Coolidge effect has also been observed in humans. For example, one study investigated sex differences in the desire for sexual variety and found that, across cultures, men reported desire for a greater number of different sexual partners than did women (Schmitt 2003).
