I enjoyed reading this article. It is interesting how differences are made between women and men sexual desire, sexual orientations, relationships and sexual plasticity. The reading says that research show that w0omen are less likely to initiate sex, that they literally have a lower libido, they are less aggressive during sexual relationships but are more likely to change their sexual orientation and are most likely to be the compliant partner. I agree to a certain extent because I believe that women are conditioned to not show sexual interest openly, to b reserved when it comes to sex and to f0ollow along with the men. I also agree that educated women, college graduates as mentioned, are more sexually opened. What is also interesting about the article is that it considered heterosexual relationships, as well as homosexuals which gives a broader and more generalized insight on the subject.
It also brings back the quote that says that need a connection to be intimate as opposed as men. I believe it is not totally true, the fact that women are so conditioned might lead to believe that hey need a reason other than physical attraction to be intimate. However, women, just like men, are capable to do so. Many women have the desire but are too scared to act upon it because society defines it as wrong and not women like. A lot of these assertions about women, collected through researches, are either observed or gathered through interviews. I believe that these findings would be different if women allowed themselves to be free from societal rules, and frankly answer without the fear to act appropriately.
