This is debatable. This is certainly truer for women in more traditional societies where they earned less than men, but as women climb up the corporate ladders you see them doing the same things in relationships as men.When liberated from patriarchal sexual norms female sexuality seems to converge to male sexuality, but cultural understanding of sexual relationship lags actual behavior by 40 years. Studies show that women have the same hard coded visceral, visual sexual physiological response as men, but the social constraints preventing women from acting have been relaxed.
- maxkwallace 8y agoFor sure it's debatable but this is simply not true: > Studies show that women have the same hard coded visceral, visual sexual physiological response as men I don't know what studies you're looking at but you're misinformed. Women don't have the same physiological response to visual stimuli as men do. I don't know what you mean by "doing the same things" but even if we assume that women are doing those things it doesn't follow from that they are the same as men at a sexual level.
- stupidthrowaway 8y agoThe problem referred to by the article is actually predicated on the idea that women want less casual sex, therefore are able to be more selective due to supply/demand advantage.
