The feminine never quite get it.

Mens sex drive is mostly physical. Men need sex like they need food. Love without sex leaves then unfulfilled.

Womens sex drive is mostly emotional. Women need sex like they need love. Sex without love leaves them unfulfilled.

It seems obvious that if a couple share enough love and enough sex they will be a long way towards a good relationship. If the basic differences aren't acknowledged there will be little understanding.

I think women have the easier task. If a women gives her mate as much sex as he wants, even if she is "faking" her own desire for sex that often, the man will be happy. It is very difficult, however, for a man to "fake" the emotional responses that many women desire from their mate, even if he wants to please her.

Take care of each other and celebrate the differences, even if you know you'll never really understand each others "drives".

You are correct but there is more to why surveys like this come out periodically from leftist 'research' organizations. Remember the goal of feminism, is to turn women into men. And when that's not practical then turn men as much as possible into women, so that in the end they are the same. It's plain old liberalism -- with equality of outcome being the goal. Anything men can do, women can do too. Anything men do, women must do. The physical act of sex and sexual gratification seems so unfairly biased toward men(not a question of fairness, just how things ARE) that the feminist movement insisted that women have sex with the same frequency and recklessness with which men do regardless of whether their bodies wanted to or not. Thus began the free love movement of the 60s. Abortion, the fail safe contraceptive, as we all know was the guarantor of freedom from personal responsibility.

As for the underlying theme of this particular survey -- its that men and women are basically the same, with only slight differences in the way we react to circumstances. Make no mistake about it. That IS the theme. I saw it right away and thus post # 2.

Very good explanation.

The trouble with stupid “surveys” like this one is that they leave normal woman feeling inadequate.

Is she is “faking” her own desire for sex when she wakes you up from a sound sleep in the middle of the night?

ps. I love it now that we are retired and have the house to ourselves.
