TruthInTelevision. Sometimes, the experience of getting a girlfriend gives men newfound confidence that makes them more attractive to other women. Sometimes, the fact that a man isn't on the hunt anymore makes them more relaxed and natural and thus less awkward. Finally, the fact that he has a girlfriend signals to other women that there is ''something'' desirable about him, an effect which in RealLife is called "pre-selection" or "social proof." There's also a belief that after having sex, a man releases pheromones that make him more desirable (again going back to the "proven desirable" mentioned above.) This may or may not bode well for the relationship.

* George Costanza of ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'' once heard that women dig married guys, so he goes to a party wearing a wedding band and pretending to be married. Pretty much every woman there comes onto him, when they likely wouldn't have looked twice at him otherwise. Of course, [[MortonsFork he doesn't get anywhere with them because they all think he's married]].

This can also happen even when the girl is still only a LoveInterest, which makes it even harder for the guy to beat off the other girls and convince her that she's his OneTrueLove ([[FirstGirlWins which she is]]).
