That’s all irrelevant for the sense of uniqueness I explained, which has do with behavior and interchangeability.
And you’re still missing my point: the behavior you describe can be generated by many different beliefs or perceptions internal to the person generating the behavior, and you cannot know (unless you ask, or at least perform a more detailed test than the one you’ve desribed) whether the person is willing to meet many different women because he does—or does not—consider them unique.
That is, until you ask, you can’t know whether his thought process is, “Every woman is unique, so no matter who I meet it will be a fun and interesting experience to discover what she’s like,” or else something so crude I won’t render it into actual words here.
What I have been pointing out is that there are people who state, teach, and promote the mindset I have spelled out here. Certainly, there are people of the other mindset, and disagreeable as it might be, I don’t argue with the fact that mindset also exists. You seem to be denying, however, that the more enlightened mindset also exists.
My original point was about particular individuals, womanizers that I’ve had conversations with and one of whom I knew very well.
I’ll agree that womanizing might arise out of thinking every woman is unique in a non-trivial (albeit not necessarily benign) sense, as you have suggested, but my point was that there is a tension between maintaining uniqueness and considering them fungible (even if they’re not totally incompatible). I’m not in the slightest interested in PUA and dating/seduction techniques and related topics, so I don’t have anything more to say on this topic.
