It's false - but it's based on a related truth.
For most women, RELATIONSHIPS are her top priority, and her sexual desires aren't really unleashed until she has an emotional connection with someone.
For most men, SEX (including casual sex) is his top priority, with relationships being a much lower priority (at least until he is able to get sex regularly).
Men don't understand why casual sex is such a big deal for women, and women don't understand how men don't share their interests in relationships and why they are so interested in sex (especially casual sex). This leads to an enormous amount of confusion, hurt feelings, and misunderstandings between the sexes.
But men don't actually fall in love through sex - sex will not make a man develop feelings for a girl, and guys tend to fall in love very quickly when they do fall in love.
Generally agree. Not only that but men and women both seek out different things in mates. Women are focused on choosing men then benefit in some way genes, success driven, good looks, can protect them. Men are much less shallow about what a person can do for them they're more into attractive partners who want to put out. They care less about things else than women. A man isn't going to be as judgmental if a woman doesn't have a job or isn't as smart.
@Caaarl What about women waiting for marriage? What Is the general opinion of men about women with those strict beliefs?
@Blunique find someone who shares the same values because celibacy goes against human nature.
Men don't need sex to love. At least for me, those are two completely different issues. I can have sex with someone repeatedly without developing any kinds of emotions. On the other hand, I once dated a girl whom I had zero sexual contact with. Our relationship was purely platonic but I still loved her.
I would actually argue that reality is the complete opposite from how you stated it in your title. Women are the ones who tend to fall in love with someone simply because that guy had his penis inside of them.
I think men and women fall in love with the most popular! The one with the most power!
Wrong. Men don't create an emotional connection through sex like women do. I'm convinced that men develop feelings just like women do. Starting with a small crush and ending up head over heels. A man needs to get to know a woman. Her appearance attracts his eyes (lust), her soul attracts his heart (love). If she is easy as fuck and shallow, he will see her as nothing more than a fuckbuddy.
A woman on the other hand releases a certain hormone during sex which makes her bond more with the person she is having intercourse with (an emotional attachment).
If that statement was true though then there would be no fuckboys and sluts would be the biggest lovers.
What an answer. Are you speaking from experience or do you just have that insight?
I get my knowledge from science (studies that have been done) and I could relate due to personal experiences and from what I've seen.
In my case... my boyfriend and I started out as fuck buddies. So I had sex with him well before I fell in love. He told me he always knew I was special, and I guess having sex cemented that. So... kinda but not really?

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!I used to think that, 'cause it made sense logically before I fell in love. But I fell in love with a woman through a 2000 mile LDR, and we kept it up for 4 years through texting, til I finally brought her to me and... Turns out I was an asexual. I had no idea, I figured I'd enjoy it as much as anything I had seen in media or my friends bragged about. But... No, it wasn't all that fun, more of a chore than a pleasure. So I'd have to disagree, men are (or at least one is) capable of falling in love emotionally first.
Maybe this is usually common but I don't find in my case. My girlfriend and I both love each other very much but I would definitely say she is always more intent with the more sexual side of things. We're almost even though.
I think everyone falls in love with food
No I don't
I'm not a guy but I don't think that is true. My aunt was obese when she started pursuing my uncle who was tall and fit and they got married and she was his first girlfriend. Now my aunt makes millions running a law firm in China and my uncle is her chauffeur, chef and secretary.
I mean, there is truth to it. I liked this quote, "Intimacy sometimes results in sex, for women; sex sometimes results in intimacy, for men." I feel like that's more accurate; but, even so.
But I've had sex with a decent amount of women who weren't looking for love. Well, maybe some of them were. But even so, women just like sex, too. I don't think women need love to comply to sex. They just need comfort and security.
I think that is kinda the biggest lie society tells us. I think it's just slut shaming, in a way. A lot of guys tend to think that way. "Oh, I have to talk to her for a year and get her to love me, before we can have sex." Naaa man. You just have to be playful and poke a bit of fun at her; get her comfortable with you, then horny, then make a move. It's kinda fucked up that women can't just be like, "I wanna get laid," without the fear of being slut shamed. How DARE you like sex!
I think sex is best for women when they are in love. And sex without love may be empty; but as far as empty actions go, it's one of the best.
But we both definitely seek variety. I think men seek more variety, though, because of that spreading the seed thing; whereas, women seek the best possible match, yeah.
But. Women just like sex, too. Maybe not as much as men, but they still want it. They still crave it. They still lust. They just need certain conditions met, before they feel comfortable indulging in that lust. And love isn't one of those conditions, in my opinion.
No. I have had sex before with men that I didn't love because I was pent up, horny, stressed and needed the release, I was grateful to the guys that obliged me with my much needed contact but, nothing romantic came of it later and I was ok with that. I also don't believe that a guy falls in love with a girl just because he screws her.
For certain personality types, yeah I'd say this is true to a degree.
How would that explain prostitutes and/or promiscuous women? What about the number of young women on here who have posted that their number of sex partners was already in double figures before they've reached 25? Were they seeking out love or were they in love? If women need love to comply to sex, as you've said, then they must have loved every one of those guys, right?
I don't think that is entirely true, I think men also biologically have a higher tendency towards an 'alpha/beta mentality', which is why they get all hyped about helping the team, helping the nation, helping humanity, etc, more so than girls and thus pursue such careers like science more frequently than women. So a guy might be a lot more likely to be fixated on a life or career goal in helping others. And when a guy gets to a certain degree in that sort of mentality, that is a biological drive that helps the species survive just as much as reproduction drive does. So he would then focus on his own mental state and keeping that stable 'for the sake of the species' or whatever, and would then would prioritize emotional stability higher.
I think it's true of both genders both ways. Men fall in sex through love and fall in love through sex. I think women ALSO fall in love through sex and fall in sex through love. Sex produces bonding hormones in the brain which cause people to fall in love. This happens to either gender meaning either gender can fall in love through sex. Likewise people cease to be able to think logically when they fall in love (i'm not bashing people in love that's just literally the effect of being in love as a psychological state induced by hormones). People in love do whatever they can to please their partner so people in love are far more likely to end up having sex as well. So yeah, I think it works both ways for both genders. In other words... this statement is absolutely true, but is only half the story.
Not just sex, making love is the key. As in, when the sex is very emotional for the woman, than they fall in love because you're now bringing in strong connections to the table. As well, I believe it's more of a combination of an emotional and mental connection that make people fall in love. If there is no connection mentally or emotionally, it's damn well impossible to fall deeply in love. Maybe a lustful love of a person's techniques or physical appearance and feeling will increase a more mental connection and emotions can arise out of sex. But if it was sex that always made someone fall in love or not, there would be a shit load of women butt hurt in porn or not even wanting to pursue it. Same with the sex trade women out there.
No..
Of course men are biological wired to want sex but there's a big difference between love and sex. Love grows on a person after they get to know one another over a period of time. Men fall in lust at first sight with many women but not love at first sight. Some people say that but its hind sight in my opinion.
I think this applies to BOTH genders really!
False. My eldest brother fell in love with his now wife when they were in high school. They never had sex until she was ready.
My parents fell in love and waited till they got married to have sex. Same with my grandparents. I will say though that a lot of men do fall in love through sex, it’s sad though.
Completely disagree, men do NOT fall in love through sex overall.
Plus i don't need to be in love to have sex with a guy either, i don't think many people do, i need some feelings sure, but being in love is a lot deeper than that.
No, I do not agree with that statement.
I believe there simply is a spectrum of promiscuity.
Those who are promiscuous have smaller capacity for love and romantic attraction than those who lay on the other end of the spectrum.
Promiscuous women, in my experience, give just as little of a crap about love and relationships as promiscuous men do.
no thats rubbish. i ask sex from date one. to see what he is made of. i fall in love if the sex is good and if he is confident and is gaming me well in the longterm.
Hahaha totally false. That statement it's based out of misconceptions in this society
That is a load of crap, I have never fallen in love with a woman because I was having sex with her. I also know plenty of females, that have sacrificed love and compatibility for security and social status.
