English analog to “Stelzbock” or why so few sexual cusses for men?

Question

german female version of Stelzbock someone told me would be Flittchen - Hussy (eng). Is there an appropriate translation? Imo, Macho and Gigolo doesn't match , to less animal-like and more a lifestyle. Male hussy or manwhore seem quite common, but are more abusing women as a group than a single man if you think about it :)

There seem to be a lot slang words describing sexual behaviour of women, but much less for men. Should be quite the opposite ;) Are the more political gender correct cusses concerning sexual behaviour for men in German? Or is this phenomenon a relict of our mostly patriarchal social history, that there are generally more cusses (not only sexual-related) for women? Are there studies viewing this discrimation of women via language. Makes me think of Hexe too, what's the male analogon?

Answer 1

Other words could be:

• Schürzenjäger
• Weiberheld
• Frauenheld (similar to Weiberheld)
• Casanova: this was actually a man that had many sexual relationships. But we use his name to call someone (in a more positive than negative way) who behaves like Casanova did.

Duden also suggests Charmeur, Ladykiller, Weiberer and Womanizer as synonyms for Frauenheld.

Answer 2

The issue was not which gender's behavior was "looser," or worse, but which gender's behavior was less TOLERATED.

A woman can bear a child by her "man" even if he is seeing other woman. On the other hand, only one man can produce a child with a given woman at one time. Therefore, a woman's "misbehavior" infringed on her mate's rights far more than his behavior would infringe on hers.

Which is why men were always obsessed with the behavior, good or otherwise, of women. And women much less so with men.
