Of course, hasn't everyone?!
In that case you'd be aware that, while, of course, a guy has to be in the mood and have a bit of energy, the art of becoming able to partake in "the sacreligious act of fornication" is more physical than anything else;
yes, physical, which means one has to be up to the physical challenge, want it, be in the mood for it, willing to do it, have the energy to do it.
whereas the female equivalent tends to have much less to do with physical factors.
I feel you are blurring 2 different issues. I wasn't talking about sexual response at all, so I can see how you would misinterpret what I meant. I was talking about the physical act of sex, not only getting off.
Research evidence of this is that you can touch me all you want, but unless I want there to be any type of effect, there wont be any
While this of course is valid, it really has no relevence to what I was saying and therefore does not serve as a rebuttal to it. Whether or not you get an effect from being touched doesn't make it extremely difficult or impossible for you to have sex (like it does for a guy), as I said, you could be unconscious and still have sex, whether you come or not, just as for the guy, is not relevent to the initiation of the act itself, it's just a likely result of the act.
As a woman you have no touble having sex when you are too tired or not in the mood, you may not want to but you can still do it - not only do you not have maintain a state of high arousal in order to fuck but you don't even have to be wet since we have saliva and lube so readily available.
whereas my boyfriend needs very little stimulation to be physically ready... no matter how tired (doesn't mean he still rather wouldn't want to roll over and go to sleep, though).
I wasn't talking about sexual response/orgasm, I was talking about the physical act of sex. The duration to arousal, etc, isn't relevent in a discussion talking about the will/energy to do the nasty.
The only time your statement is true is when you're screwing a dummy and remembered to pick up some lubricant.
I've never screwed a dummy so I guess I'll have to take your word for it!
The fact remains that for men sex is a much greater effort than it is for women. While the sexual responses in men and women are obviously different is does not change this fact.
What do ya think? hehe
