All this time I’ve been telling men and women that when it comes to sex, women have the advantage, because they have the power. But apparently, that’s not the case, and I don’t know how I didn’t know this. I may have to change my ideas, and my advice, and probably flex this muscle. But anyway, let me explain briefly why I thought otherwise, and that women are the ones with the sexual advantage. Yes, talk about sex, two days in a row, but they kind of relate in a sense. Anyway, so I was under the impression that women were under control was because of the mere fact that sex doesn’t happen if she doesn’t want it. Men want it all the time, and I know women want it too, but they get to dictate if and when it happens. That’s why men wine and dine, they bend over backwards for women, in hopes of being able to sleep with them. It’s a fairly simple bartering system, where, in return, women get either commitment, love, money, stability, a family, whatever they are craving.
Now, there’s this study, yep another study, those are fascinating, that say that men are really the one’s with the power when it comes to sex. I have to agree with a lot of what is revealed in this, and I’ll just highlight a couple of them. Apparently there are enough financially independent young women out there who believe that they don’t need men and are willing to be more promiscuous and have sex most, that as men and women get older, and women are looking for a more…stable relationship, men end up going to the younger more sexually active women, leaving older, more commitment seeking women in the dust. Is that just not crazy? First off, there are way too many factors in that for it to be too true, because honestly, I don’t know if most guys can snag themselves a young lass who’s up for a romp. But if they can, apparently there are enough out there, that you men, hold the key to the door of sex for older women. And apparently that’s late twenties and up. Yeah, I’m surprised too.
Then there’s the porn factor. Apparently, pornography is so easily accessible and guys are fine enough to take care of themselves that the population of guys who are willing to have a relationship is getting smaller and smaller. I don’t know about you guys, but I can’t live off porn alone, I think I need to have the touch of another woman and all that good stuff. Still, they find that with all the porn around, it becomes a factor for women looking for a guy to settle down with. And I guess the guys who want to settle down are too busy masturbating to care about such women. Well, the article just says that the number of available bachelors just drops because of it, and…I guess that’s true.
With the way the world is now, how many more guys are just going to the cheap and easily available porn over the more (relatively) expensive price of dating? Dating takes time, costs money, and the likelihood of getting laid isn’t consistent? Plus, you can be all sorts of undesirable and porn will never turn you down. Its a scary thought.
So ladies and gentlemen, who have the power when it comes to sex? Does this study have legs? Guys, are you content with porn or do we men need women for satisfaction?
