Why Women Have Sex is a book by Cindy Meston, a clinical psychologist, and David Buss, an evolutionary psychologist.
According to a new book, there are 237 reasons why women have sex. And most of them have little to do with romance or pleasure…Opppss
“People just assumed the answer was obvious,” Meston says. “To feel good. Nobody has really talked about how women can use sex for all sorts of resources.” She rattles off a list and as she says it, I realise I knew it all along: “promotion, money, drugs, bartering, for revenge, to get back at a partner who has cheated on them. To make themselves feel good. To make their partners feel bad.” Women, she says, “can use sex at every stage of the relationship, from luring a man into the relationship, to try and keep a man so he is fulfilled and doesn’t stray. Duty. Using sex to get rid of him or to make him jealous.”
My Highlights;
-”Why do the faces of Antonio Banderas and George Clooney excite so many women?” Im not in that group
-Love: an insurance policy Ohh!.. NO
-The idol of “women do it for love, and men for joy” lies broken on the rug like a mutilated sex toy: it’s orgasm, orgasm, orgasm. “A lot of women in our studies said they just wanted sex for the pure physical pleasure,” Meston says. Yeap, that’s me
-”In Masters & Johnson’s [1966] study of over 300 flaccid penises the largest was 5.5 inches long (about the size of a bratwurst sausage); the smallest non-erect penis was 2.25 inches (about the size of a breakfast sausage).” why sausage?
I love sausage
-”Medicinal sex; Women use sex to cure their migraines. This is explained by the release of endormorphins during sex – they are a pain reliever.” I get migren everynight, please heelp
Anyways, it is a VERY interesting article and Im sure the book is even more interesting.
