Play refers to the amount of romantic, flirtatious or sexual attention given to someone by the opposite sex. Play is short for playing time (PT) like in an athletic sport. If a guy gets a lot of play, that means that he gets a lot of attention from women and a lot of opportunities to be with them sexually or romantically.
