In the spirit of
promoting better understanding between the sexes, here's some deep dark
secrets about how men really feel about sex.
1. We Don't Actually Want Sex All The Time
We just think we're supposed to want it all the time, and
unfortunately, this seems to be what women think too. It's
extraordinarily difficult for a man to say no to guaranteed sex, not
only because it's considered unmanly, but because women tend to assume
that something's "wrong." Nothing's wrong. Just like women, men only want
sex... when they want it. The problem is that men are often terrible
at knowing the difference between sex they want and sex they don't want
until the awkward post-coital embrace. They really need to work on that
one.
It Is About Power
The domination thing is no myth, but it's not a scary bad thing
either. Men want you lost in a raging, out of your mind, forgetting your
own name, ocean of ecstasy. They want to you to completely lose control
and they want to be the guy who took it from you. But, really, it's not
about power 'cause everybody wins, right?
3. We Appreciate Sex for Sex’s Sake
Having said that about
intimacy, sometimes a little “throw-me-down sex” is the right medicine.
According to Joe Kort, PhD, a psychotherapist and sexologist, “Men want
their wives to enjoy raw sex, not just endure it or take it personally.
For men, it’s not about dominating a woman, but ravishing her.” On
occasion, try letting him ravish you.
4. We Always Need It, But Not for the Reason You Think
Men
are accused of being sexually insatiable, but women should rethink this.
“Men see sex as a celebration,” says Dr. Schaefer. “They wish women
would take more of a ‘carpe diem’ approach to it. We move through life
at the speed of sound, with multiplying challenges and pressures. It’s
easy to allow demands on our time and energy to rob us of the joy,
pleasure and opportunity that sex affords us. On the long list of
priorities, it should not be on the bottom rung.” If that doesn’t make
you want to “seize the day” (or something else), consider the health
benefits: Orgasms release oxytocin, which has been called the “bonding
hormone,” bringing couples closer together while it alleviates anxiety
and stress, reduces blood pressure and promotes healing.
