It used to be that gay men's tendency to have many short-time sex partners was seen as perverted and wrong. Then as a society we mostly moved past that and accepted consenting adults do whatever they want.
We did the same thing with female promiscuity, from demonization to celebration, especially in mass media. Sex and the City was over 25 years ago and it was not a trailblazer.
Somehow this understanding hasn't been extended to heterosexual males. We still present womaniers as people who "use" women as if women were unable to make choices of their own and having sex with a man was taking something away from them.
