According to my single friends its the women who want the casual sex these days. Have had several divorced friends (males) tell me they were dumped because they didnt put out soon enough.
LOL... your friends need to graduate from locker room tales. “I’m tellin’ ya, man... she wanted it... she wanted it BAD!”
You are both right. In our society today, women and men alike pursue sex and possessions as ends in themselves, as though it were mere desire or ownership that creates value.
