THE GUYS were asked a few questions recently about sex:

Do GUYS want sex more than women?

Are all GUYS sex addicts?

Can Guys be monogamous?

We got in touch with "OUR INNER RAM" and answered them as best we could.

    It's our take the GUYS think about sex all of the time, but it seems that women are just as interested....as often....as GUYS. Has it always been that way, or just now in a more liberated society?

    I'm looking at all the 'recent viewers' avatars...and no one posted a comment!

    Come on guys...we're males...it's hardwired into us that we want sex! Duh!!
  3. dbowles1017
    Women want sex just as much.

    no.

    yes.

    just like some women are addicted to sex, and some women aren't monogamous.
    1. MissSuzie
      Agreed!
    2. Sam1982
      where can I find these women you speak of???
  4. nothingprofound
    Depends on the guy, depends on the woman.
  5. Agit8r
    It is predicated on numerous factors, from physiology to societal conditioning. As others said above, it depends on the individual.

    Our bad if it's mislabeled. It's habit to put in a link.

    But really, we do see it all the time in these discussions and really don't think too much of it. Meaning if we decide if we're interested in the topic, we comment whether there's a link or not.

    We'll click on the link if we want to read more. Not really anything else going on. But sorry if it was taken the wrong way. Our mistake.

    Still interesting to hear people's opinions. Thanks for sharing.

    Well .. you know what they say ..
    (according to Men's Style men.style.com/details/blogs/thegadabout/2007/09/are-you-really-.html# )

    Men are in their sexual prime early twenties
    Women are in their sexual prime mid-thirties

    It's a cruel joke indeed, but one always worth investigating.
  9. jeremyjanson
    No, but they do want it more consistently. Your body is primed to desire sex when it is fertile, which for guys is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with the peaks at night and morning and the troughs at midday (afternoon delight, LOL) but always present. For women, it depends upon their current place in the cycle, and at times they will not desire any. Of course, it is a matter of basic human nature that emotions with sudden onset are always the strongest...

    Oh, and by the way, monogamy's a choice.

    And of course, whenever you are speaking of genders, you are always speaking in general. In General, because of weight distribution differences, slower metabolism, et cetera, women are slower runners, but there are women alive who could beat every guy I used to run with.
    1. Daviddsouza67
      So true.. intelligent reply
    2. bringbackpluto
      You covered that quite well! Love the "afternoon delight!"
    3. jeremyjanson
      Yeah, I had to add that in!
    4. HollytheHousewife
      Yes jeremyjason.....very good reply
  10. sjtavo
    No - I think it's an equaly opportunity desire as long as the woman is completely open about her needs and desires. I've actually been told that I couldn't not be with a guy because he wouldn't be able to perform to my (at least once a day) expectations. My sexual desire is a 24/7/365 kind of thing - and there's never enough. The more I get, the more I want.
    1. bringbackpluto
      There's a lucky man out there waiting!

      But seriously, it's all about good communication. Like you said, being totally open with your desires and needs.
    2. jeremyjanson
      Yeah really. Hubba hubba, where ya from darlin'?
  11. HollytheHousewife
    I'm not speaking for all women,but I want love more than sex
    1. jeremyjanson
      Yeah, I think a lot of guys want love more then sex too it's just 1) you're not supposed to admit it in this society and 2) it's kind of fun to joke around about. Love has a gravity that sex will never have, and as such you don't really josh around about it.
  12. HollytheHousewife
    Well I don't get it then. I'm just not a casual sex girl. To me there is no such thing as casual sex. I know I've heard girls say its just sex.... I have never felt that way and never will
    1. jeremyjanson
      That's actually a good thing. Casual sex has a tendency of leading to superficiality and, eventually, self-hate.
    2. jeremyjanson
      Yeah I hope you don't think I support a lustful approach to romance, I don't, I was mostly just giving the girl a compliment. If I actually was serious I would speak a lot smoother then that.
    3. HollytheHousewife
      Um we're not married jeremyjason...u owe me no explanation
  13. bringbackpluto
    Yes, love is important to men but it probably looks different than for women.

    I think men equate appreciation and respect for love. And the physical piece is mixed in there as well.

    But I guess for both genders it's difficult to define in exact terms.
  14. HollytheHousewife
    Yea,y'all are saying that now,but just let me walk out the room and the strippers come out from their hiding spot,haha.
    1. jeremyjanson
      Read my post above. You can't ignore the physical, but no, I believe in great sacrifice for the romantic side of life. I believe in monogamy. As for that little joke, that's what it was Holly. A joke.
  15. bringbackpluto
    How'd you know??

    We call that a "security breach."
  16. HollytheHousewife
    Because I know what goes through a man's head more than u know.
    1. jeremyjanson
      Which man? Beyond that, don't you believe that what people want because of their values and foresight is every bit as real as what they want as a result of momentary emotion?
  17. bringbackpluto
    Actually I was being very serious about the love piece. To me family is most important. I would never do anything to jeopardize that!!
    1. jeremyjanson
      Yeah I wouldn't say family is the most important thing to me, but depth certainly is. Family or not, I don't want to be surrounded by superificial friends and lovers, or live superficially myself.
  18. HollytheHousewife
    Well,now ur getting sentimental...is this where this thread was supposed to be headed
    1. bringbackpluto
      It's organic. It goes where it goes.

      OK, that was way too serious!!
  19. HollytheHousewife
    M'k boyssss I'm gonna go y'all have fun...
  20. lotusb
    Personally I tend to have more of a sexual appetite than most of my partners. With the exception of my current beau, I have always been the "wild one" in the relationships. However, I assume this varies with the woman or man your dealing with.

    I think it's hard to tell since men's sex drives are usually short lived compared to women's. While there's is an explosive display of fire works, our is a slow burning flame building up to a raging forest fire.
  21. HollytheHousewife
    That is a good analogy lotus. I would take out the word sex,and insert the word LOVE, then you have fireworks.... no 4get fireworks...have u ever heard the song bombs over bagdad? Haha
    1. lotusb
      I think this describes sex more than love. In my experiance a man's love grows the same as a woman's love does...more fonder and deeper rooted every year. Sex wavers, and changes...love is usually pretty solid if it's real.
    2. Agit8r
      love is musical. Sex is explosive
  22. HollytheHousewife
    Well yea... this thread discribes sex... I'm saying if you can be with your true love,then there is no comparisson. Wouldn't that be awesome...
  23. Agit8r
    Getting in touch with one's "INNER RAM" sounds dirty... o_0
    1. bringbackpluto
      Rams get a bad rap I guess.
  24. Mail4ms
    Okay, here it goes.... I think as people everybody is different. When I was single I did not think it was bad to have casual sex. Of course, not with different people all the time or unprotected. I mean no strings attached, feel like an itch on my back and need a scratch type of sex. It's normal to desire the opposite sex and need it. I have definitely experienced a male's point of view when I had a partner who usually did not want sex only once or twice a month!! I thought I was going to die when I heard that. He thought I was crazy when I said 3 - 5 times a week. We argued our sides but in the end he's right, everyone has a right to be who they want, want when they want it, and express themselves as they wish. That is why you need to get to know a person inside and out not only the sex. Because the sex can be oh so good and you associate the sex to the relationship when there is nothing there or little sex and great relationship. There needs to be a balance, at least that's what I think, be open with your partners about what each of you want in bed. But no, sometimes I think guys get a bad rap for always wanting sex. Joking aside, it's natural for women to be ready after climax and it takes men a bit longer to get started again or some are finished after the first try. So let's not jump the gun, women are able to go the distance, more than once a night, but some of us go the lazy way out when we want. In men, I've met cuddlers, romantics, and straight up all nighters. Be careful, be safe, but most of all be selective!! Don't just hook up with whoever and whatever.
    1. bringbackpluto
      The Guys and I couldn't agree more. Being selective and finding the right partner, not just with sex, is very important. Many people choose a partner for the wrong reasons and are sorry for it later.

      Thanks for your thoughts!
  25. flamingpoodle
    Guys just want sex with more women
  26. quack18
    i think id rather have sex with the girl i love rather that with any girl, it makes it more special i guess. alot of emotions would be involved.
  27. curlydesigh
    Hey yall...it has been awhile:

    Do GUYS want sex more than women? DEPENDS ON THE WOMAN
    Are all GUYS sex addicts? NO

    Can Guys be monogamous?NOT MANY BUT IT IS POSSIBLE
    1. bringbackpluto
      I think more GUYS can be monogamous than you think. At least the GUYS we know. But yes there are a percentage that just don't know how to behave.
  28. NatetheGrate
    Timethief -- what did you say that got bleeped?
    1. bringbackpluto
      NatetheGrate

      We'll answer that. Not sure why her comment was removed. She made a good point. We mislabeled the discussion by first putting it under General Discussion, when it should have been Shameless Blog Promotion.
      It wasn't our intention to mislabel, but more habit of putting in a link.

      But we didn't remove her comment.

      Hope that clarifies it for you. THanks!
  29. HollytheHousewife
    M'k here goes for me. I don't have casual sex,never have,never will. GOD,has put the person on earth that I'm supposed to be with,even if that person doesn't know it yet. GOD created us for one another....eye to eye,face to face,heart to heart. There is norhing on earth more precious than that kind of love. It goes deeper than sex,and more intimate that you truly believe you are one. That is what sex/love is supposed to be about....period end of story
    1. anthony9910
      So, no quickie for you ... LOL
  30. HollytheHousewife
    Exactly,I love myself more than that. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm sure I'm gonna be pretty lonely for a while,but when the right person does come its gonna be soooooooooooooooo much better
    1. anthony9910
      loool xD ok, but you know having just one won't kill you!
  31. HollytheHousewife
    What's the point if its not someone I have feelings for. Its just not me
    1. anthony9910
      For the love of your God, is just to have a little fun! What's the problem with that?
  32. HollytheHousewife
    I can have fun by myself
    1. bringbackpluto
      Good answer.

      Nothing wrong with waiting. And nothing wrong with having a little fun. To each his own.
    2. anthony9910
      Oh! LOL Never thought you admit that... LOOOL
  33. HollytheHousewife
    I didn't admit nothin boy
    1. anthony9910

  34. HollytheHousewife

  38. Selvia
    It all depends who your partner is.
  39. HollytheHousewife
    Yea...that's what I went with don't wanna feel all hootchie

    I goin out with the girls and I only dance by myself
  40. Takwa
    Guys more than girls? in their dreams...
  41. HollytheHousewife
    Well....2nite sucked sooooooo bad. Tash took me to a private party. There was no dancing..... all it was,was a bunch of college boys looking to get laid....I'm so over going out with her. She is looking for a man (which I've told her a million times,u
    Can't find a good guy at a bar,party,or a club). All I wanted to do was dance dammit!
    1. bringbackpluto
      So the red top didn't help? Bummer! Yes it's hard to find a place to just dance. That's probably why women go to gay clubs. So they won't be hassled.
  42. carlosdurangop
    Women want sex just like guys, but women not speak with mens about it!
  43. Agit8r
    It depends. Some guys want women more than sex
  44. nogueira
    I think sex has different meanings for men and women. In general, I think they have the same needs but there are men and woman who want more. Nobody is the same. And it depends very much on your partner. Men just show want they want easyly and most women have their own way to ask for more.
    1. bringbackpluto
      Very well said! Makes sense to us.
  45. jonyx
    I imagine some women want sex just as much as guys, we're just too subtle about making it known sometimes. Guys can tend to be more direct/forward about it.

    And yes I believe they can be monogamous and many are. I guess since many women are, again, not as forward as guys and for example "check them out" in a different way while men are quite free with their eyes, they appear less loyal.

    If I hardly made sense, forgive me, it's early!
    1. bringbackpluto
      I like what you said, "they appear less loyal." That is so true. We might stare, but that doesn't mean we're going to cheat on our partner.

      Very insightful!
  46. dustinriedesel
    Men want sex more. Women enjoy sex more. Simple enough.
    1. bringbackpluto
      Slight revision. Men want sex more. Women enjoy sex longer! And longer might be more.
