Sex thoughts

I think most of us assume that men are sizing us up as a sexual partner the minute they decide we're attractive.

>>Yea! Why should they get to have all the fun thoughts?<<

I think there's an assumption that women are not as sexual as men, and I think that's entirely untrue. It makes me laugh when people are surprised that a woman thinks about sex. People quote the stat that men think about sex every XX seconds (can't remember the exact number), with the idea that we should be appalled at it. But, there are days that I think about it that often. I certainly do when there's an attractive single man in the vicinity.

We don't necessarily need to look at photos of naked men to do so, so maybe it's not as obvious, but we are definitely sexual creatures.

So, yeah, the men already don't have the "fun thought" market cornered. ;)

Another thing that always surprises me is that people assume this is a new thing, or relatively. They act like before the '90s, women didn't think about sex at all. They may not have talked about it with their girlfriends they way we do, and they probably didn't discuss it with complete stangers they way some people certainly do, but you bet your ta-tas my grandmother, the mother of 13 had sexual thoughts! You think women were hvaing more babies back then and thought LESS about sex? I highly doubt it!

So true!

My great aunt was a flapper and quite liberal - I can't imagine she was a prude. My great grandmother had 10 kids - same thing. :) And my grandpa was still patting my grandma on the butt when they were in their 80s and he had that "glimmer" in his eye. Sex and sexual thoughts are not just for the young and modern, or for one gender alone. Ahh, ain't it grand?

I start sizing men up the moment I see them! ;)

The physical attraction comes first, including the "would-I-have-sex-with-him"-aspect - it's there before I even know I've noticed the guy, and if I'm not attracted to a man physically, I won't give him a second thought. All this because that's how we're made - it's simple biology. And it's fun.

Two questions:

1) How did men get this reputation of only wanting sex and thinking dirty thoughts?

2) Is anyone naked???

I think that any man reading this thread will throw that assumption right out the window!

>>It's not ALL I'm after, but by golly if I've decided he can have me, I better get my way with him often enough! <<

and he'd better darn well realize that you have sexual needs as well, and you're not just there for his pleasure alone. :)
