First off, it's usually women who harass each other for having a lot of sex. Most men could care less, or actually like that behavior, as long as it's not a woman they plan on starting a family with.
The drive here is biological though I would argue. In almost any living population the burden of discretion and choosiness is placed on the sex with less genetic material. Infinite sperm, limited eggs - I think it's obvious which sex this is in humans. This is why the drive of the male is basically fueled by diversity and visual stimuli and often for females it is more complex and varied. This is something you could write a book on though, so it's not worth getting into all of it here.
Just Google the subject though, these social conventions regarding female and male sexuality weren't just "invented" to keep the woman down lol - sure women are treated much worse in the world in general overall - but sex is the one area they really have the power (ofc not counting forced rape or anything like that) and with that power comes social responsibility. The ironic part though, is that it's the other women in their social circle usually ostracizing and keeping them accountable.
Interesting fact - in our closest primate relatives, females will literally turn their back on a promiscuous female within a group/family every time she attempts to socialize with the group until her behavior is changed. Google it I'm not making this stuff - seriously I wish women were more promiscuous in general life would be a lot more fun for us guys haha. I have no problem with a woman having many partners (within reason, not >50-60 probably) as long as I could count on her to be faithful anyway.
