I hear women think about sex more often during the day and night than guys. If this is true, why don't women act on it? I mean, jump the guys bones or invite that cooworker to a fun lunch or "dinner" that night. Or make those past midnight invitations for a visit.

I think it may be because sometimes women are more concerned about what others may think than men are. Let's face it, the double standard still exists. Men who have alot of experience are considered macho while women who have had alot of partners are not thought of so positively. Even though things are changing, that is still the way the majority of people think. Of course, no one reading this forum would think that archaically!

Fear of rejection... but the good thing about maturity... you don't worry about that as much as you did in your late 20's , the 30's, or the 40's .. Like fine wine, we age better. I have learned to act on impulse more because I know exactly who I am, what I have to offer, and with the right person.. impulses are constant.

You are overlooking the fact that sex has different consequences for a woman. The possibility of pregnancy influences all of a woman's sexual choices regardless of whether or not she chooses to acknowledge it. Ever since the invention of birth control, people seem only too willing to forget that the purpose of sex is procreation. The fact it feels so marvelous is just a bonus.

Birth control is no longer any kind of an issue. There are so many kinds out there that it's not a deterrent any more Rare.
Women are "socialized" to not to be the aggressor when it comes to sex and Luvs is very correct regarding a woman aging and how empowering it is for us.

We do think about sex more than men but just because we think about it doesn't mean we're just gonna hump the first male that walks in our path... Some of us have standards.

Like a pulse for instance?

It does not matter whether or not birth control is available or in what forms. The fact is that the female body and instincts have evolved to deal with the rigors of pregnancy. In consideration of the fact that is quite possible to die while giving birth and that even a successful birth requires nine months, it makes perfect sense that a woman prefers to be more selective than men. Any mother here can tell you that raising children is a formidable challenge.

I cannot even begin to count how many thousands of articles that I have read over the years whose authors predicted the collapse of civilization whenever a new product or policy to control the reproductive process appeared. "Abortion is now legal! Women will now sleep with anybody! Morals will collapse! Society is doomed!" "RU-486 is legal! Women will now sleep with anybody! Morals will collapse! Society is doomed!" "A vaccine for HPV is now available! Women will now sleep with anybody! Morals will collapse! Society is doomed!" And, somehow, even in age where the Pill, abortion, RU-486 and treatments for STDs are widely available, I can count on one hand the number of women that I have met who would jump into bed with anybody.

By the way, what makes you think it is any different for men? God only knows how many women I have chased just because they were beautiful and healthy and could presumably bear healthy children even though I have no desire to be a father. I'm willing to bet that every man here has a story like that. Anybody who thinks that we can separate reproduction and sexuality is just kidding themselves.

Aww, come on Rare. Surely you can't believe this.

In the 25 years since my first sexual experience, I've had 1 pregnancy. I can assure you I've had sex more than once. We most definately CAN separate reproduction and sexuality.

There's no way I'll ever have another child. According to your statement, I shouldn't want sex either. You couldn't be more wrong.

I don't look for a man to make babies with. . .I only want one that likes to practice.

Rare,

And believe me I am not trying to persuade you one way or the other, but:

Ever since the invention of birth control, people seem only too willing to forget that the purpose of sex is procreation. The fact it feels so marvelous is just a bonus.


Ok, let me understand, sex = procreation... does this mean once we mature, absolutely fine as wine women who are beyond our procreative days should stop having sex (or absolutely arrrrgghhhh, baby, sexy mature men who do not reach a beyond procreative stage), or as I prefer the term, lovemaking / living out our sexual fantasties / desires, because we can no longer procreate?

Bring me the individual that wants to put this into effect, and I will lock him/her in a room and play subliminal tapes until they realize that the purpose of lovemaking at any age is to pleasure themselves and their partners and assist each in the understanding that what is taking place is taking place because of feelings of desire and affection between the couple. And, if there are no feelings of desire and affection that exist and the couple is having sex because of the more basal needs of the individuals, if they are consenting adults and understand the consequences and know their partner well enough to know there will be no risk of any type of STDs or disease, should the reason for this sexual need be procreation?

Along with Nora's statement, I can vouch that I have made love more than twice in my life (I have two children and am beyond that procreative stage), and Lord help the individual who prohibits me from something as pleasurable and satisfying as making love with an individual I find to be attractive, can interact with on levels of commonality and fun!

Don't get me wrong, I am not condoning walking up to some individual on the street, grabbing them by the arm, dragging them off to someplace where we can do the horizontal (and maybe even the vertical) limbo and after the fireworks, straightening out my clothing and walking away with a cigarette say.. "now that's what I am talking about".... attitude. I need to feel at least a connection and know the individual more than in just smiling politely and nodding my head in recognition or raising my eyebrows and doing the come hither look, but solely for procreation purposes.. Lawdly no!!!!

I don't know, Rare. If your theory is correct, then why is it that I found sex SO MUCH more enjoyable AFTER having my tubes tied when I knew pregnancy was not something I needed to worry about anymore?

This may have been the case many moons ago but it's not so now. Most women I know who have finished having their babies are glad that they are no longer going to concieve and it makes sex that much more enjoyable for them.

Sex isn't just about getting pregnant. LOL I think the human race would be in serious jeopardy if we only ever "mated" just to reproduce. The fact we can procreate is a bonus if that's your intention but its JUST as much about the sex.

Personally I'm feeling very lucky that those days are over and it's not a concern anymore for me. This actually empowers my sexuality more, not diminishes it.

I wish women would act more impulsively. Seems like the ones I know all are very repressed and hold things back a lot. I mean, yeah no doubt they have the impulses but they control them far too much. Sex seems to be the reward rather than something to enjoy with someone else. To me, sex is just part of nature, something that comes naturally, not something to be withheld and only given out as the prize to the guy who manages to hang on long enough in the relationship to get it...

You're right lj.

And sounds like according to Rare -- once you have
your babies -- you should stop having sex.

Are you kidding ....

Sounds like he might make some woman happy one day.

Yeah -- Right!
