Male and female sexuality: two sides of the same coin

This is a follow up to this take I wrote.

Men and women are similar in which we are both humans but we are also much more different. Each new discovery uncovers more biological differences than similarities. Perhaps one of the most notable differences between men and women has to do with sex.

This has to do with biology not “social programming” and yes I know each person is unique but biology is a lot different than sociology.

Male and female sexuality: two sides of the same coin

1.)Men are visual creatures: Let’s first address the elephant in the room. Men are very visual when it comes to physical attraction, in fact some people say that physical attraction is the result of being visual. There’s a reason why partially clothed women are used for marketing purposes and not partially clothed men. Partially clothed men do nothing for women, while partially clothed women turn men on.

2.)Partialism is a male behavior, not so much a female behavior: Partialism is a type of sexual behavior attributed to finding a specific body part that isn’t the genitals to be sexually appealing. For example, Alvinophilia(navel partialism) and Pygophilia(buttocks partialism) are mostly male behaviors. It’s mostly men who find women’s navels and butts to be sexually appealing but not vice versa. Have you ever heard of a woman wanting to see a man’s navel or butt due to sexual arousal? I never have. The list goes on and on. Partialism is predominantly a male behavior even though there are very few women who do have partialism, but they are exceptions.

Theory about alvinophilia(navel partialism): Some people believe the reason why some males find the female navel to attractive is because the navel subconsciously reminds them of a vagina. This theory is further supported by the coincidental occurrence that many women who have navel partialism are either bisexual or lesbian.

3.)men are kinkier: Kink behavior is common amongst both males and females but men are almost always the kinkier ones. While most women’s kinks are the basics(bdsm, oral,wearing lingerie and wearing leather) men have a wider range of kinks(corduroy, velvet, smelling female flatulence, navel play, role play etc.) For example, a woman wearing corduroy pants will instantly turn on straight and bisexual men who have corduroy kinks.

4.) women get sexually aroused by sound: Women primarily get turned on by sound. Some things that turn women on are the sound of a manly voice, a man singing and a man saying dirty things. Yes, there are women who claim they are “very visual” when it comes to attraction but in reality they are only referring to it in a non sexual aesthetic manner, like looking at a artwork. Hence many women admitting they are not as visual. There are some women who are truly visual but they are only exceptions.

5.)Men subconsciously search for fertility: Another reason why men are visual is because men search for signs of fertility(youthfulness, big butt, curvy body etc.) Almost all of the things men find attractive in women have to do with fertility.

Theory on nurturing characteristics: Men also search for signs of a nurturer. Such as a woman who can defend herself, in the animal kingdom a mother will defend her offspring by any means necessary. This could be why guys find it hot whenever they see a woman practicing martial arts and female gun enthusiasts. Other signs of a good nurturer are compassion and the ability to care.

6.)Women are subconsciously attracted to signs of power(the ability to provide and protect): There’s a reason why women are attracted to male celebrities, wealthy men, soldiers, police officers, firefighters, athletes and confident men. They all show signs of dominance and power. For example, look at how many women go crazy for men like Liam Hemsworth(actor) and Todd Howard(video game developer). Look at open weight full contact sports, whenever a smaller competitor triumphs over a larger competitor, many women will go crazy for that smaller competitor because it’s a sign that he is able to be a good protector. While women also go crazy for wealthy men because their wealth implies they can provide. All of these types of men are “Chick magnets”.

Even though most women aren’t “as” visual when it comes to attraction, they still check out men’s physical attributes for signs of power, such as strong hands, muscular arms, broad shoulders, broad chests, masculine faces(strong jawline, hollow cheeks, male dimorphism etc) but it doesn’t mean women are sexually turned on by the sight of the male body but rather by what the man can do with his body.

Male and female sexuality: two sides of the same coin

Theory on women liking men’s hands: Women may like hands for two subconscious reasons, one is that a man’s hands are what provides and protects. The second reason could be that the fingers remind women of penises.

7.)Men are biologically programmed with a urge to spread their seed: Another reason why men are visual is because men have a primal urge to spread their seed. It also explains why men have higher libido. This urge is absent in women. Men compete with other guys to impress specific women.

8.) Women want the very best they can get: Instead of having the urge to spread seeds, women wait for the best protector and provider to come along and impress her. This behavior can be seen amongst many wild beasts in which the males will wrestle with each other to show dominance and attract a female mate. Human females wait for a man who has a good personality, is financially stable(or wealthy) and can protect himself. This is a possible reason why women rarely make the first move and why women need a emotional connection to find a man attractive. Ever notice that this is more common

than this? Only a few women who are often called Amazons want this.

9.) peculiar porn habits: People often question the sexuality of women who confess to watching lesbian porn for obvious reasons.However, studies have shown that women get turned on by erotic imagery in general, it doesn’t matter who or what is taking part in sexual activity, the brain activity of the woman reacts the same way. Thus why some people believe that women’s sexuality is more “fluid” than men’s. People often ask, “why do straight men watch straight porn knowing there is a male?” The answers vary but the main answers are that men don’t focus on the man, they focus on the women, while other guys say that they imagine themselves in place of the man involved. I personally don’t watch porn, it never fascinated me. The stuff I’m into isn’t even considered porn.

Male and female sexuality: two sides of the same coin

10.) Women have stronger orgasms: While men are kinkier, women are known for having far more intense orgasms, which are the result of women being able to hand multiple/full body orgasms per session. Men only have one orgasm per session which still feels amazing. However, men can still learn how to have multiple/full body orgasms. It just takes practice.

Male and female sexuality: two sides of the same coin

Summary: While both men and women do experience sexual arousal, it’s a bit different for both sexes. Men are turned on visuals and the ability to nurture, while women are turned on by the ability to protect and provide. Men have a wider range of kinks than women but women still have stronger orgasms. Men have a urge to spread their seed, while women wait for the best. Women on average have a more fluid sexuality while on average, men have a fixed sexuality hence the peculiar porn interests.

The above regarding Males and females can be explained through a biological perspective which is why men and women shouldn’t be forced to change their behaviors. Men and women should just embrace who they are.

  • So, knowing all this to be true, are you ready to accept that a woman can find a man just as attractive as he finds her even if she initially did not find him physically attractive?

    Just wondering...

    • I’d say men and women feel different kinds of attraction to each other to the same extent. Women will probably never understand the attraction men feel towards them and us men will probably never understand the attraction women feel towards us.

    • So I can’t answer that with certainty because I don’t know what kind of attraction women feel towards us.

    • You can only find someone physically attractive initially, unless the later change their looks. By definition physical attraction has to derive from the physical, the tangible. Most women are not actually physically attracted to their boyfriends.

  • This is a good take and generally fits the majority of men and women. Your points 6&8 describe why I find a man like Wladamir Klistcho so attractive.

  • I agree with all except #9 if she watches and gets off to lesbian porn then she isn't straight. Vice versa with guys. Sorry.

    • I know straight women who watch lesbian porn because it’s all about pleasing a woman,.

    • Women who watch lesbian porn are not "straight". Good one 😂

    • It’s like how guys watch straight porn despite another man being in it, except women focus on how they want to be pleased like that by a man. Straight porn tends to focus on pleasing the man rather than the woman, so straight women watch lesbian porn instead.

  • I always found the idea of women being attracted to a protecter really weird to be completely honest, along with the whole "women want just one of partner who is the best" compared to the whole "spread your seed element" considering that the former is a product of society whilst the latter is more biological. Considering women cheat only a tiny bit less than men, less than a 5% difference, there must be something wrong with that philosophy. It's pretty well argued that women, much like men have great benefits in having lots and lots of partners, along with biological markers to suggest this behaviour.

    • There are always exceptions.

    • No these aren't exceptions.

    • Are you saying that most women are open to having multiple partners?

  • Partialism might be due to the body parts often covered and sexualized in many western cultures though. Fertility and aesthetics play a role in what men find sexually attractive. But for instance, in the middle east where women's heads are covered. Men can be excisted seeing a woman's hairt like we can be see a woman's ass. And a lot of it is the taboo and sexualization and tension from body parts flaunted but covered. Men aren't as crazy about boobs in cultures where woman are casually topless thus treated in non sexual context. The male body is often show casually and nothing really forbidden other than dicks, but dicks are ugly so... And I believe my orgams can match that of women's, so mabe that's true in general, but not completely.

    I agree with the rest. And saying what I did, I do believe men are still more visual, but our obsession with ass and tits is them covered and taboo which really adds and hypes up the attraction there already is. We would still find boobs and ass quite sexually attractive even if women were topless casually as men in tribal cultures, nudist clubs and countries where women can be topless and do so at the beach. They all still find women's bodies still sexy, but not distracted or obessed about them like cultures like here where you can't see such parts unless in a purely sexual situation.

    • by the way, what do you like that isn't porn? I feel that way too ha. I generally don't like porn except for very select stuff, but not much of so don't look through porn often. But I like non porn stuff as in the sense of porn meaning nudity/and/or sex

  • I dont know. I don't seem to follow any of those "scientific" generalizations.

    The way I see it, yes there probably are generalizations you could logically make about men and women, but the important thing is that you don't use them as a rule of presumption. People are individuals first and foremost and should be treated with that in mind. As a person my own brain and feelings, I'll tell you what I find sexy and what turns me on, not the other way around.

    • Hence the word “subconscious”. As I said at the beginning, everyone is unique but there are explanations for why people like what they like.

    • What do you mean "hence the word subconscious" ? People like what they like whether the reason for it is conscious or not. All I'm saying is people dont fit into molds like you're entire take is implying. What I'm gathering is that you relegate anyone who doesn't fit your generalization as a rare outlier, sure you acknowledge that some people aren't typical, but the real picture is a spectrum not a dichotomy with a few rogue elements. Do you see what I mean? I'm not disagreeing with you entirely because plenty of people do fit in the generalization. If they didn't there wouldn't be a generalization in the first place, but just as many are different from slightly to moderately to completely opposite. Anytime you try to put people in a box and say "men are this, women are that" humans will embarrass your presumption by blurring the fine lines you draw. Does that make sense?

    • That’s why I said there are always exceptions.

  • This take is garbage and demonstrates what I dislike about soft sciences.

    It's all a bunch of projected generalizations. Real people rarely fit such molds, and the spectrum of human behavior is so vast that these silly horoscope-like descriptions have no real value.

    Much of the differences expressed are even explained by mere semantics. As a woman I love strong pecs, but you claim that's merely due to my subconscious desire for a protector while for a man, hiss love of my breasts is due to his visual nature. That's nonsense.

    • So basically you are saying we like what we like “just because” without any biological explanation?

    • You are trying to over- generalize. Connections between stimuli and arousal happen for a number of reasons and a good number of those reasons are personal experience. Exposure to porn is required for an addiction to porn. For some, who live in ultra- conservative communities, a flash of a woman's ankle is more exciting than a woman's breast in cultures where women do not wear tops. Each person is programmed my a combination of the environment they were born into, the conditions of their growth in the womb, the genetics they carry, the treatment of them by others, and the choices they make. It is naive to think a single trait (genetic programming) is the answer to most questions.

    • You do realize there are many examples I could have used right? Of course there are many other things people are attracted to but they are not just random occurrences, there are logical explanations.

  • Good take!.. Although I don't agree wit # 10... I don't think women have strong orgasms than men.. I've read where there really is no difference, and that it depends on the individual.. I know women have longer orgasms, but 10 secs.. But Stronger... Eeeehh.. That's subjective..

  • This was actually insightful and correct about women being seduced by money and power...

  • Reasonable... but why the wall of text? Writing a book? LOL

  • I think saying men spread their seed is a limited interpretation.

    Both men and women have both an urge toward investment and and urge toward 'getting around.' It's the dynamic between those drives *in and between* both sexes that optimizes human reproduction from an evolutionary perceptive.

  • I live the chicks 🐣 🐤 🐥’s on the magnet picture.

    Questions: Let’s say a woman was born with missing fertile parts or a diesase causing infertility ,(could a man sense it.)

    What are examples of sound arousel?

    What makes a good nurturer?

    • No, the man can’t sense infertility. Some examples of sound arousal are sexual noises. A good nurturer is compassionate, caring, able to protect the offspring.

  • Mostly agree.

  • that commercial made me laugh

  • You tried one of the tex mex thick burgers, hahaha, they look real tasty.

  • Bruh... girls are visual too... hence why they love ripped, tall men (also black men). Men are wired to sleep around, yes, but you're wrong in saying women aren't. Women nearly sleep around as much as men, if not more. Women are wired to fuck around in order to find the best mate.

    • What of the women that sleep with below average looking guys?

    • Below average guys only get laid in relationships. Most women engage in tons of casual sex, where they only fuck hot guys with traits I mentioned above...

    • Not that long ago, I talked to a woman who claimed to be straight but thinks men are ugly.

  • just treat women like shit lol

  • Wouw i really dont agree with almost any of it. You make generalization and take enormous leaps to explain why that is how it is. you downplay social pressure and role models immensely. What if men are more visual focused because in the community everybody says you should like hot women and its normal for you to only look for that. And really focus on it.

    • I am skeptical of the credibility of “sociology” because it seems to have become way too political and therefore biased to always be trusted as a credible science.

    • Im not saying you have to believe all the conclusions. but i hope you don't deny people have effect on you and you on others. If you use psychologie's pyramid of maslow you know that two of the needs people have are: social contact and social acceptance. But you dismiss the whole idea that society can shape the people? Specialy as a kid that is just looking at the world to learn it not to challenge it.

    • Not everything from sociology is fallacious but parts of it are. Same goes for psychology, there are many valid points in the field of psychology but there are also parts of psychology that are corrupt and outdated. Between the two, Psychology is slightly more credible than sociology.

  • I agree. Interesting myTake

  • Women who are aroused by lesbian porn are bot straight, Why women who masturbate to lesbian porn ARE NOT STRAIGHT! ↗ read that and tell me how they are straight. Hah not visual until it comes to naked women.

  • enjoyed reading your article!! in my case I think is a litlle bit diferent because my girlfriend is almost 10 years older than me , i´m 19 and and she is 29, we´ve been dating about 1 year.
    we met at church when I was 15 and she was my menttor in our bible study, and I had a crush on her the moment I saw her... she is the sweetest girl I´ve ever met, , she have a good job an im still in college , and our relationship is the best becuase we have tons of sweet loving sex, thanks girl for sharing your article.

    • I’m actually a male.

    • sorry man it was a mistake , but your post is really good...

    • Thank you.

  • A lot of stupidities. All normal people, men and women having nothing in common with the above story. Women are less sexual, they are much more maternal than sexual. Men are more involved in what means sexuality. In main you can consider sexuality is 70% masculine and 30% feminine. The rest are a lot a lot a lot of stupidities.

  • you are right about most but wrong about one , number 8, women want the very bests (plural) they can have that's why human females have no 'heat' period unlike other mammals , we have hidden oestrous cycle... meaning sperm wars exist. a woman is attracted to the bests not just one man and multi-tasks both... but men due to social manipulation used force to shame women for that...

    • There is always more than one “best man”. Nowadays men are the ones being shamed.

    • what i meant is... women have hidden oestrous, google that... that discredits your 8th point...

    • Bests is grammatically incorrect. What you are saying is the same thing thing I said.
