I don't think there is anything Machiavellian about it. I think its more gut reaction and primitive and it manifests itself that way. There are things we do everyday that we can't easily explain, we're just hardwired that way. I read somewhere women typically don't like other women who are promiscuous because they fear the promiscuous women will attract their mates away from them. So next time you hear one woman call another a "slut", it may be a reaction to insecurity or fear of losing her mate. I'm thinking more along those lines in regards to the original topic: that men don't want other healthy males around their mates unless they fully trust them.
