There are a lot of inconsistencies on this forum. We've had threads where most women have posted that their guys can't keep up with them sexually. We've had other threads where women say that 4x/week is the most any woman could do or would want to do, even in their 20's. Go figure.

So in general, while we are sexual, it's better for us to also be reserved (until we get a committed partner. Like I say, once I find a good man for a LTR he better not count on getting much sleep lol).

Oh, and for clarity, that's just my own little hypothesis. It makes sense to me because that's how I feel. There might be a time when I am craving sex a lot--but I still won't go out and sleep around or find ONSs. It's just not going to happen.
Women are human, of course they have a strong sex drive. That is human nature. Why is this news?

What you just described is not being a ****, and is a good thing. And for the same reasons, why sluts are looked down upon.

Well posting about a constant fear of STD's and waiting forever to have sex with someone doesn't quite scream "look at me I have a high sex drive."

Definitely stuff that has been known by the experts for a long time. Only social pressure makes it seem otherwise.

Men's natural testosterone levels start decreasing as they leave their late teens and early 20's. Women's sex drives tend to peak in their 40's (biologically)

Luckily I'm 25, but I have even noticed a slight decrease from when I was 20, unless it's just because I'm in a long term relationship lol.

Either way, 100% sure I will be taking testosterone once I get into my late 30's and 40's.
Men have a refractory period. After that, they can probably go up 5 or 6 times a day, some women just get started with that many....

Women don't have a refractory period, they can keep going, men can't, I don't care if you're 18, 25 or 45. Men can never keep up fully with women, pun intended.

So go buy your testosterone pills, they are still good for other things...

I have also always said this..... The other threads that are funny are the guys who say middle-aged married women don't want sex anymore.... This goes against everything I've seen IRL. Many of my happily married 30-/40-/50-something girlfriends tell me they just can't get it enough from their hubbies. Their sex drives are through the roof. They are telling me their hubbies can't keep up with it sometimes... LOL

On a forum where men complain a lot that "women don't like sex", or women kill relationships by avoiding sex, this is big news.

LOL.... I can think of quite a few posters who might benefit from reading this study... There is often an alternate reality on this forum, which I have not experienced...

I think what those guys really mean is "women don't like sex with me."

To be fair, though, there are women who post semi-frequently on the forum about how they don't like sex. I think this forum attracts a lot of young men and women at the age where women have yet to come into their own sexually due to a life of double standard social pressure. I remember in my teens and early 20's it seemed that many women didn't like sex as much as men. Holy cow did that change in my late 20's and 30's, though. Now I sometimes want them to back it off a notch so I can sleep.
