It's not about viewing women as property, it's about having some expectations of monogamy in a relationship. Now some people don't like that societal standard and that's fine, but you're clearly talking about situations where the guy is not a consenting party to a polyamorous relationship. I didn't like using the word "taken" but it was just for lack of a better way to say that succinctly.

Again you're going off about the guy being a "bitch" and "evolutionary reasons", just sounds like a bunch of bro science shit that you're doing a poor job of trying to dispel the idea of it still being a part of PUA culture. People are allowed to have failed relationships but what you're talking about is a really gross, emotionally unhealthy way to come to that conclusion and hurts all three people involved in the long run.

I find the whole premise ridiculous anyway. You don't know anything about the couple's personalities or relationship dynamic when you approach them as a stranger, you're just projecting your own assumptions to justify that behavior. Maybe some dudes like to let their partner go off on her own for a bit and talk to people when they're at a place together, because they aren't insecure alpha bros who view every night out as some competition to impress the ladies the most. It's kinda hard in that case to know if a guy is hitting on her unless you're just sitting in on her every little convo. Plus drunk guys at the bar flimsily hit on women all the time. It's not crazy for a guy to think she can handle it herself. In fact, a lot of women would be put off by the idea that they need their guy to be a "protector" on the lookout to bat the alpha males away from her.

It's not that hard, don't hit on people clearly with a partner just to prove your "skill", and don't cheat on your partner just because they don't have some animalistic protector instinct.
