That's a broad brush you paint men with there.

It's not meant as invective.

But just as everyone says we need to recognize the truth, such as "women are different from men", we need to be able to state it from both sides.

This article (and more, the replies to it) essentially states women aren't as sexual as men - that they "need a reason", and all that. Which I guess is "painting with a broad brush".

The flip side of that is that men are more sexual - AKA more promiscuous, and hence more likely to give in to those temptations.

Why is it OK to say it 1 way and not the other?

All they did was, if you will, bring women down to the level of men. ;-)

I think it was well put. It's always been a double standard.
