Why do men obsess over sex?

Question

dynamicyandere · Accepted Answer

Biologically, most men have a much higher sex drive.

I believe studies have been done that concluded that male sex drive is about double female sex drive, on average.

And I’ve also heard in interviews from prison inmates that it’s not uncommon for men in prison to want sex more than they want food and water.

And I can see that.

Not having sex for days can feel similar to not having food for days.

The desire can be just as strong.

And like hunger pangs, they are persistent.

Perhaps it’s the male testosterone or male androgens.

But it’s like we have this natural aphrodisiac released into our bloodstream spontaneously via our hormones.

So, it’s easy to get caught up in what our bodies are feeling, it’s difficult to ignore, but it’s possible for those with strong self-control and discipline to keep everything under control.

Not everyone has as much impulse control and not everyone has as much reign over their desires — so it’s common for some men to just let loose and allow their brain to obsess.

This doesn’t excuse men of being inappropriate.

Just like one should control their anger, one should control their sexual urges as well.

But it’s true that men are just wired to have powerful sex drives that feel as strong as physical hunger.

To not obsess, a man needs to be focused on other things e. g. pursuing goals.

Because that’s how we were made , and that’s how we express our feelings and emotions to a girl that we appreciate and want by our side , unless he is a player and just wants to fuck any girl he can get, but most guy’s want a girl that loves him the same way he loves her , If intimacy and affection lacks in a relationship , a guy will assume she doesn’t value him anymore and isn’t in love with him anymore , that she is probably being up to no good and getting it from someone else or planning to get it from someone else. Most guy’s want sex when it comes to a relationship with a girl he gives his heart to , that’s his way of being closer to her and feels valued and appreciated by her , If she all of a sudden stops being intimate and affectionate with him he might assume the worst case scenarios and more than likely he will end that relationship or be open to meeting another girl that wants to make him feel valued and appreciated , So my advice to girl’s that want a healthy happy relationship , you are better off keeping your partner happy in the sack to show you value him and appreciate him , because if you don’t , don’t be surprised if he leaves you or cheats on you with someone else , Girls ‘ do this as well when they aren’t getting the affection and passion she craves , she will either cheat or leave her partner for someone else that wants to appreciate and fulfill her

The worse they look the worse is their obsession. Lot of 9+/10 guys prefer quality over quantity while in most average guys is the opposite the case

They were created that way by God. Nothing wrong with it as long as they control it and don't let it get out of 'hand', so to speak... lol

They’re taught to, everything important in their life can be related back to the ability to have sex. Emotional intimacy, physical intimacy, personal status among friends and family, etc.

Probably because it’s in their genes to try to procreate.

Funny. I remember times where women brought it up to accuse me of nonsense in situations where I never mentioned it. So maybe some projection going on?

My college years were a time when everyone was encouraged to be horny all the time. I generally tried to keep a lid on it. But that didn't stop any of my peers, regardless of what was between their legs, from being wild. Yet, it was also a time where, if someone didn't meet your standards, it wasn't enough to turn them down and watch them walk away. You had to personally destroy them so no one else could enjoy them either!

This has made me cautious when approaching any attractive woman for any reason, even if sex is the farthest thing from my mind!

Hormones.

OfMiceandMen · Answer

I don't think I ever obsessed over sex. Sex is a nice byproduct of being together but it was not the priority. I often enjoyed the snuggling part and watching a movie, playing cards, etc., just as much.

Pegases · Answer

Same reason women obsess over attention. We're wired that way.

Because going back evolutionary times those males who did obsess over sex left more progeny.

Plus males of all but 4 species know when the females are ovulating because the females signal it. Tricky homo sapien females have hidden estrous so homo sapien males don't know. Which means we at least need to give you a shot every two days but fresher is always better right?

The determinant is sperm is viable for 5 days in the Fallopian tubes but an ova is only viable for a day. So our sperm need to in there ready to go. Girls actually signal at ovulation "Wake up boys - go for it NOW!".

There is some thought men can sense when girls are ovulating. Research has shown strippers earn peak tips about when they ovulate and minimum when menstruating. I'm inclined to think that is because girls feel sexier at ovulation and men are reacting to that.

It's enjoyable, there's a natural urge to to do it.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

I don't, I am just passionate about everything I like in life. People who aren't intense/passionate about their interests and desires or boring in my opinion, and I feel like they are faking interest in everything they say they like.
