Why do men think about SEX all the time? (Page 14)

I see. From what I understand, biological evolution is simply a change in the allele frequencies from generation to generation. But evolution has no intelligence or 'reason' in that sense. It's just what is more environmentally beneficial for someone to survive. Those fit will survive more in numbers to pass similar genetic materials to their offspring, and those unable to will eventually perish out. In hundreds of thousands of years, environmentally beneficial genetic traits are what will sustain in biological population. Since men 'sowing their seeds' and women being more nurturing and emotional was what was beneficial, that is the trait that triumphed in the end. Hmm...of course this is just what I could devise myself. Maybe I need to go take 101 course on evolution.

@Angie/RTH - I agree following the course of evolution may not always be the best case. We have made moral values that protects the right of individuals and not the whole pack. Like you said, sexual promiscuity is only natural (especially by men) - and is also evolutionarily beneficial as it ensures the survival of the species - but we have devised systems like monogamy or life-long commitment. To be fair, monogamy is also reported in many animals so it's not exactly biologically unnatural.

Actually I've heard woman gets horny the most at a particular period in a month when she has the highest chance of getting pregnant. Isn't that evolutionary too, because it's beneficial to have sex at that time.

Do men think of sex while they're on the shitpot?

Do men think of sex when they hug their mother?

Do men think of sex when they're with their children?

Do men think of sex when they find out they have cancer?

Do men think of sex when they play with their dog?

Do men think of sex when they play with their cat?(JOKE, men love dogs, not sissy cats! DOGS RULE YEAAH)

If the answer to any of the above is no, then this debate was founded on an incorrect statement.

Are You Kiding Me??

so their families are feed by your Swiss account ? will you say the same for the men in your family ?

I doubt anyone can think about sex while reading this post. A good amount of time has to be spent pondering what it is about and what the point exactly is.

If we are taking evolution into consideration here - the explanation is simple. In homo sapiens the culling of the weak seed is not a natural process like those in say deer - in a herd the strongest stags will fight each other and the ultimate winner gets the first dibs so to say. This ensures only the physically strong and capable stags get to mate. Homo sapien females unfortunately do not get to choose - therefore men need to copulate with as many women as possible in order to ensure that there are enough offspring - remember only one in a million sperm is capable of fertilizing the egg.

With women being selective (though socially there doesn't seem any probability of their choices being validated) is a throwback to the animal instinct of selecting partners that could be good providers or protectors of the herd (family-unit).


But evolutionary history has little to do with social jingoism. Fact is that most men use that adage to act like jerks, and society (male-centric ofcourse) permits and propagates that myth. Nor is it laudable that we allow the male of the species to actually gloat about the fact that "they controlled their urges".

Remember when a 4 yr old pees in his or her pants we scold the child - it is about toilet-training. We do not reward the child every time he/she runs to the nearest loo, do we? The same thing goes with using a fork and knife, learning to write, playing with other children - these are all rites of passage and part of raising your children right. The last rite of passage is Puberty and how to handle it. Why is it that we are unforgiving about incontinence and punish it severely but are willing to  ignore inability to control a sexual urge?

Nopes men are not to be pardoned for inability to think of sex all the time nor are they to be praised for controlling their urges - no more than the 10 yr old who is jumping up and down all day long telling you he needs to go to the loo. Both are equally silly and both are simple physical urges. To put it plain and simple men need to realize whether they are limited to an organ that is an adjunct to the rest of the body or are they something more than that.

Perhaps it is time that men decide how they wanted to be treated in an evolving world - as replacement for an inflatable battery-operated doll or as rational contributing members of society; if the latter they have to themselves rise above the myths about male-sexuality and prove it in thoughts, actions and deeds and not hide behind adages

^What myth are you talking about?
