Eric is sensitive, smart, kind and handsome. He’s an attentive lover, the sort of man who, on Valentine’s Day, draws her a bath surrounded by candles and arranges rose petals into a heart shape on the bed.

Do guys really do this?

[Cringing Negativism Network]

I dunno.

Just saying... I dunno.

Sounds like yet another woman, seeking yet another unconventional spin.

Couldn’t swear to it, but I dunno.

[yldstrk]

If guys would just realize that sex starts hours before “doing it” and that women don’t want to just “hit it” and they hate it if the men expect them to act like porn stars, things would get better.

The jaded, the unhappy, the perpetually seeking stimulus, now has quantified themselves as a disease state. Sort of like the new disease obesity. It is all about who pays for the therapy. For lots of folks under the current stressors, sleep is the new sex.

Thanks for the post.

Disgusting.

How about NOT ‘$&’$@?&/!@/!ing at all? How about holding it until you marry?

Idiocracy is already here, I already wrote it here today. Yet another thread!

[tflabo]

Why so complicated.... ????? Sheeeesh!

[traditional1]

The male push to get women to become "Sandra Fluke", i.e., easy to bed and leave without responsiblity. The whole movement is successful (just like "Liberated" women now give it away for free to casual partners) and men win, again.

Nothing is saved for marriage anymore, and you see that in the marriage numbers....why buy the cow, when the milk is free?

Of course, the rise in faggot/dyke activity is related to the "what else is left?" after destruction of any intimate bonding between sexes, NATURALLY.

Her research, which uses a plethysmograph, a miniature bulb and light sensor placed in the vagina, suggests women’s desire is as omnivorous as men’s

Women generate light "down there?"

I guess you learn something new every day.

Her research, which uses a plethysmograph, a miniature bulb and light sensor placed in the vagina, suggests women’s desire is as omnivorous as men’s; they’re equally aroused by a range of pornography and are far more responsive to stories involving strangers than long-time lovers. Yet when asked to rate their arousal, women downplay it, particularly when the stimuli aren’t socially acceptable.

Which illustrates the old maxim "ignore what women say, watch what they do".

[Lazamataz]

This is actually interesting research. It may well be that familiarity breeds boredom in some women's sex life.

And that, dear readers, is the reason I attempt to bed every woman I see. I'm merely trying to make the world a slightly happier place.

Y'see.

[backwoods-engineer]

This research is bull.

There is an overall poor correlation (r = 0.26) between women's self-reported levels of desire and their VPG readings[8] suggesting that vaginal blood flow is not a reliable indicator of female sexual arousal and a better method is needed. Men using the penile plethysmograph have a far greater correlation between reported arousal and blood flow.

See the Wikipedia article on vaginal photoplethysmography. Not the greatest source, I know, but better than the OP's source.

[tanknetter]

It strikes me that there’s way-too-easy a correlation being suggested between couples’ meeting, becoming intimate, conceiving, having a baby and getting that baby through the first 6-12 months of life.

When the child will be ready to be claimed by the state and put into state-mandated care. While the parents go about their merry way in meeting, becoming intimate with, conceiving children with ... other partners.

There are damn good reasons why the monogamous parents/family unit developed as the foundation of society. Yes, it involves some degree of discipline to overcome various primal instincts (discipline that too often enough breaks down for too many people). But that’s why humans are supposed to be blessed with the gift of reason, right?

A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE!
There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights.
The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor,
but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.
On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

‘That’s nice,’ she thinks, ‘but I want more.’

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.

‘Wow,’ she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.

‘Oh, mercy me!’ she exclaims, ‘I can hardly stand it!’

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

I didn’t need to read the article to come to the conclusion, if they don’t want it:
THEY’RE DOING IT WRONG!
Nuff said...

[Lancey Howard]

She theorizes that, within monogamy, women’s narcissistic need to feel desired is not being met: they feel their partners are trapped and that “a choice—the lust-propelled selection of her—was no longer being made.” One of the women interviewed in In What Do Woman Want?, Sophie, reveals how she compensates to summon lust for her husband: by fantasizing about being ravaged by Yankee shortstop Derek Jeter.

Here is what the theory boils down to, as far as I can tell: women want to be raped by men who are overcome by their lust.

[LongWayHome]

Women are not that different from men.....they just hide their secrets better, incluing their sex life.

[elkfersupper]

No man can ever know what a woman wants. Hell, they don’t even know themselves and wouldn’t tell you if they did.
