Are we still arguing this? Opiate ended this charade a few pages ago with actual evidence showing that men have stronger sex drives than women.

 

[jon bones]

Do they do anal though?

you'll go far here, kid

Did I cite myself as an authority, or did I cite Opiate's links as an authority?

 

[shanshan310]

I'm not even sure why you're pursuing this argument. But if you must, then here. Real world observation: in a college bar filled with mostly decent to good looking people, a substantial majority of girls and a substantial majority of guys will go home alone or with friends every night. It's not the same people in the bar every night, but the outcome is the same.

If, in this alcohol-fueled, dance music-blasting smorgasbord of good-looking people, the average woman wanted sex as much as the average man, then considerably fewer of those people would be going home alone.

I don't see how this is even arguable. I'm 99% sure there have been comedy videos on youtube exploring the idea of some hypothetical world where guys' and girls' sex desire was reversed.

I was more just curious, because a lot of your contrary evidence seems to be based on how women behave at clubs. A lot of women don't enjoy clubbing for the same reasons men do, and some don't even go to clubs, so I'm not sure that it's the best indicator of norms.

Because if something is only true in certain situations, that's a lot different from something being true all the time.

I would say rather than "only true in some circumstances", it's expressed in different ways.

I'd take Opiate's advice and sources on sexuality about as far as I'd keep dating tips in mind from Evilore.

Ouch, sick burn. But the fact that Opiate is an android is exactly why you can trust him, because he doesn't let emotion get in the way of his judgment and always stays objecitve.

 

[Amzin]

I haven't read this whole thread so I'm not sure what all has been beaten to death with a stick, but I personally don't care about which gender's drive is higher so much as how much society impacts sexuality, which I'm hoping this book goes in to. Plan on reading it soon, and my wife very much wants to read it.

 

[EviLore]

I'd take Opiate's advice and sources on sexuality about as far as I'd keep dating tips in mind from Evilore.

Based on what, exactly?

 

[Opus Angelorum]

I thought EvilLore did pretty well with the ladies. I don't recall reading anything to the contrary.

[triplestation]

CLicked this thread at the perfect time

Kick his ass evilore!

 

[Unknown Soldier]

If you expected a response, Fyrewulff has no backbone so you won't get one.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Given EviLore's account waltzed into BeautifulPeople without too many difficulties, I can't imagine the ladies are a problem.

 

[The Librarian]

Are we still arguing this? Opiate ended this charade a few pages ago with actual evidence showing that men have stronger sex drives than women.

Well, yeah. On average men have strong sex drives than women. It's why, when someone transitions from female to male, his sex drive increases.

 

[flash ban]

I just don't think women even outside clubs are that horny in general, there are exceptions though.

I've heard for example that playgirl magazine's audience is mainly gay men and not heterosexual females.
Also I've heard that male prostitutes are rarer than female prostitutes, and even though they're rarer it is said to be more common for them to get male customers rather than female ones.

Also many men spend months to years dating hoping to get laid, first day sex is not usual from what I hear.
In addition while I and pretty much any guy I know would instantly take any reasonably attractive girl on the offer of sex, the opposite is very unlikely to be true.
I'm pretty sure most girls would get very angry if a handsome man asked them for sex as a complete stranger. Would the same happen to a super hot attractive girl? Of course not, for many guys even if they were in a relationship they'd cheat right there and then.

 

[IceCold]

Does it decrease when the reverse happens? Where's trans-gaf when we need them?

 

[The Librarian]

You can do some quick googling and you'll find your answer.

 

[shanshan310]

I just don't think women even outside clubs are that horny in general, there are exceptions though.

Pretty much all of girl gaf and dudes in relationships confirmed that women generally wanted sex more. I feel like girls have just as much potential, but perhaps depending on social factors it's just not expressed as much.

I've heard for example that playgirl magazine's audience is mainly gay men and not heterosexual females.

Playgirl generally caters more to gay men in the first place. Hairy body builders don't appeal to a lot of women

Also I've heard that male prostitutes are rarer than female prostitutes, and even though they're rarer it is said to be more common for them to get male customers rather than female ones.

Again I would say this comes down to a lot of social factors such as fear of slut shaming, rape, murder, stds and pregnancy, as well as a general need to be more "modest".

Personally I think I have quite a high sex drive, but if I was single I'd never go out clubbing looking for a one night stand with a man. A friend sure, a lady maybe, but not a male stranger. I dunno, it just feels cheap, dangerous and generally not that sexy.

 

[v1oz]

"High" is relative. But I call bullshit on this for the majority of the population not including fringes cases like nymphos/sex addicts. The differences are naturally because of the inherent differences in hormonal levels between sexes.

Why do you think there's a search for a female psychological viagra that boosts libido? I've also not heard of lots of females with vast porn stashes on their pcs, while this is a common thing for guys.

It is also the case that many women don't reach orgasm from regular sex, and many men don't bother with continuing sexual play to bring them to orgasm. So how could these women be longing for sex without orgasm? and as much or more than men?

I think this is a case of bragging.

 

[cj_iwakura]

My friend's talk about his GFs definitely support the article, in that they have way more of a drive than my friend does.

As for the whole 'girls don't hit on people thing', I've always assumed(based on no real evidence or experience) that they prefer guys to make the first move so they feel more successful in appealing to others. Or something like that. (I hope that doesn't come across as sexist.)

not only don't they usually hit on guys but they frequently turn down guys who hit on them.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Some girls also have very high standards, or are just plain mean.

I don't think this is the whole story, as there are super hot girls who end up with average looking ordinary guys but have obviously been hit by many given that they're hot.

And I'd say it's not some but most. Almost any decent looking girl has probably received her on share of male requests which she has evidently turned down.

I know a few examples of that, and I imagine those girls just get along really well with the guys in question.

What?

And I dunno dude sounds like you don't know or talk to many women.

others in this thread have already put evidence showing that in general women tend to have lower sex drives.

It is peculiar that all these guys and gals would claim the opposite, while there are exceptions, it is very likely some or many are simply bragging as the data suggests they'd be the exception not the rule.

"In general" leaves a lot of room for people to fall outside of the norm. No one's bragging that they're the exception.

 

[FyreWulff]

Because according to your adventure blog threads and other similar adventures, you seem to want others to fall in love with your checklist instead of you as a person. You seem to never feel you're actually accomplished and live a playboy lifestyle in a quest to affirm yourself as having made it, even though you already did long ago. You come off as afraid of stopping or normalizing the circus for fear you'll be forgotten.

A large percentage of this forum, including me, has neither the money or the ego to live that lifestyle and can't apply it to our situations.

I'm not sure what triggered this comment, but I have no idea when or why I've pissed you off.

As a counter argument, dildos are much more common and socially accepted than flesh lights.

Women not reaching climax from penetration is more a physical barrier than anything. A lot of people just can't finish without clitoral stimulation, but can definitely finish with it.

I think this is a case of bragging.

I'm not sure what exactly I, and everyone else, are bragging about, but you're banned so I guess I'll never know.

Bragging about getting laid and worse, enjoying it.

The horror! I guess any post about sex is "stealth bragging".

Is that really ban worthy? He comes off as a little bit obsessive or jealous but i'm not sure that's ban worthy.

[Can Crusher]

Girls these days certainly act much more lax, but I don't agree that the drive is as big or bigger than men's.

Certain women have bigger sex drive than certain men, but in general I don't think it's true.

When have I ever talked about wanting someone to fall in love with me? In reference to my Eurotrip travelogue, I jumped into that adventure as a way to get myself out of a really severe depression, and was coping with that state of mind for a while and speaking about it candidly (too candidly, evidently).

Why should I ever feel satisfied with what I've accomplished? I'm not running away, I'm running toward new experiences and challenges to overcome. The last thing I want to do is squander the rare opportunities I have. Living my dreams makes for a hell of a circus, apparently.

Fear of being forgotten? What? Everything ends when you die and every impact fades to nothing with time. I'm just here to make the most of it, be a positive influence on the world, and have some fun in the process.

You know nothing about me, and even less about the advice I've given other people, it seems. When I try to help people I do so from the shoes of someone who has lived a full spectrum of experiences: poverty and success, fat and fit, weak and strong, alone and together, paralyzed by social anxiety and going out there into the world meeting thousands of people, suicidal and content with life, without having been handed anything. When I see someone on here looking for help, odds are I have something to offer based on my personal experiences and what I've fought for.

Piss off.

I don't know about having a lower sex drive or not but this drama definitely has me rock hard.
