"Why do men only want sex?"
Why do women never finish this sentence, by adding "compared to..."?
Anyway, men and women have vastly different roles in reproduction - men's job is more-or-less to fertilize the egg, which is potentially a 10 minute job. Women's job is to carry a child in their bodies for 9 months, give birth to that child, and then care for that child almost every minute for at least the first two or three years of its life. The magnitude of that difference can't be overstated, and it definitely is the reason there's such a huge difference in the way men and women look at the opposite sex.
Because sex can bring such work and responsibility for women, women are biologically programmed to desire a relationship - to seek a partner to help with these tasks and to protect and provide for her and the child during and after her pregnancy, when she and the child are vulnerable. And women absolutely benefit far more from a relationship then men do - a relationship, especially in the feminist era, has few benefits for men (and huge liabilities), but major benefits for women.
Looking at the male side, men are biologically driven to have sex and to "spread their seed" - to be in competition with other men for access to women. This competition ensures that most women will get pregnant by the best men (the strongest, the healthiest, the smartest, the most attractive, etc.), which improves the species, because women will be more likely to choose those men to sleep with. But men are programmed to desire to sleep with a hundred or more women if they can (most can't, but they still have the desire to), and NOT necessarily to get into a relationship with most of those women.
It's not that men don't want relationships - most men do - but we only want relationships with the right women and when WE see a benefit to US for being in a relationship - and frankly, a lot of women bring little more than sex to the table (and sometimes not even that), and hope to entice men into a relationship, but a lot of men today have grown up seeing most men they know being in bad relationships or being divorced and being court-raped both financially and with regards to access to their own children, and they often just don't see the value in a relationship - they're being asked to give a whole lot and to risk everything, but only get a little in return, and only if she feels like it, and a lot of men simply won't sign up for such a bad deal as their fathers and perhaps grandfathers did out of tradition and out-of-date expectations.
These men still want sex, though, and have learned that enough women are desperate enough for male attention that they'll trade sex to get it. It's not ideal, but at least it's a relatively fair deal - each gets SOME value, though neither get everything they want.
Feminists taught women that women could make huge gains in society and change all the rules and structures and expectations (which is true), WITHOUT men or the social contract changing or without any unintended consequences (which was decidedly false). Today, most women simply don't bring enough to the table to entice men to want to be in a serious relationship, and in fact, even though most women have a huge list of things they expect a man to bring to the table, few have ever thought about what they themselves bring to the table, much less thought about what men WANT from a woman in a relationship. It's kind of like bringing $800 to a car dealership and expecting to drive home in a 2020 model car that's paid for - and then being surprised when dealers don't even seem interested in talking to them about it.0 1 0 0holy shit that says so much truth
What can I do to change that so guys will actually want a relationship with me and not have sex with me.
"What can I do to change that so guys will actually want a relationship with me and not have sex with me." 1. Don't "lead" with sex. Adopt a "girl-next-door" look (natural, simple, feminine, slightly conservative) if you don't already have that look. Guys may pay a lot of attention to girls who look "obviously sexy", but those aren't the girls they pick for relationships. 2. Recognize that you are looking for a PARTNER, or perhaps a better way to put it, a TEAM MEMBER. Think of your relationship as a team that needs to work together to achieve goals. If you want to "win games" or have accomplishments, you have to work together, and sometimes make personal, individual sacrifices, to achieve the team goals (which, of course, you will have a big part of choosing in the first place). The key part of this is WORKING TOGETHER, not in competition against each other, which is what I see way too many people try to do.
I agree to your point to a certain level but it is not a generic way.
It's a myth that most men think sex is just sex. For many, sex is a very important act between two committed people. And just like most women, men find sexual intimacy to be most satisfying within a committed relationship. One reason is that long-term partners know how to please one another better than strangers do.0 0 0 0

2 13Modern women have made themselves un-want-able for anything else. Feminism is a homosexual movement psychologically transsexualizing women to an undesirable state for masculine men for other than a pump-and-dump. There is no future with a modern woman and thus men don’t take them serious anymore. Therefore, mutual respect is completely lost. Basic biology!
0 0 0 0Not everyone is like that tho. So just use them and keep looking for people looking more long term and work on bettering yourself to have that kind of personality plus look people look for for the long term types.
0 0 0 0Keep making steps in that direction.
I think you are totally full of shit, and I am offended that you assume that all me are like what you, erroneously suggest!!
Do you really believe this BULLSHIT, or are you just posting, offensively, to start a discussion?0 0 0 0If you use online dating for the most part you'll get played a fool if you think you are going to get a relationship. Most guys on there all they want is sex.
I don't use online dating, and I think you assume too many things, and judge all men as the same!
Well you aren't going to like every girl that you dated so I am pretty sure you ghost women before.
Not really, sex is damn disgusting in my opinion and I think my relationship would be far better without it.
0 0 0 0Nope, women want sex also
0 0 0 0Also lots of men want more than just sex.
Your right
0 0 0 0But why?
Because we think with the penis and not with brains or heart. Brain and heart follow latter. Men see women as a breding machine for offspring production. Love stuff comes later.
Sounds like you need to find a better caliber of men tbh.
0 1 0 0Is not true.
0 0 0 0For me it is no guy likes me.
you didn't finde the good one, i never want JUST sex. But i refus to whait for what i want.
It seems like for now I'm not capable of being in a relationship with nobody.
Nop not only men want sex but also women want sex, maybe all the things you said was right but women can do worst than that, sleep whit a man just for his money, use sex to manipulate a man to do and give her all what she want, do not want to have sex unless she have something in return
Just like men women can also do bad things when it come to sex1 0 0 0Look I like talking to this girl and despite my attraction I never bring up sexual stuff. So, gross generalization is not good anyways
0 0 0 0Cause sex is fun
0 4 0 0Not me i want friendship the most.
0 1 0 0All men don't only want sex. In fact I've known far more women looking for one night stands than I've known men to do so.
0 0 0 0What else is there for us to want?
0 0 0 0I’m so excited for the Black Widow movie.
