That is funny, in real life its usually the other way around, where its much more likely to be "just sex" for me but for women, it's something much more serious. This makes sense from an evolutionary point view, men benefit much more from impregnating as many women as possible but women have to invest a TON of energy into having kids so they benefit much more from having a single powerful man. Women cannot have a bunch of kids at the same time and fooling around would make it far less likely for them to get a man who will help them raise the kid.

Both genders are possessive cuz there is advantages to both; women wants to make sure that the man does not split up his resources and men wants to make sure that the kid he's taking care of is his. In terms of who fools around more though, men win by a long shot. Women are also more forgiving to men who cheats than men are to women who cheats, which contributes to men fooling around even more. There's an evolutionary reasoning for this as well but I've rattle on long enough. This is why rich powerful men of the past tend to have harems, btw.
