There's a web site called Hoot Island that I was recently pointed to. It has a really remarkable variety of silly sex articles -- like a story about finding sex toys in the road, a demonstration of difference in romantic points of view, and something I've considered before but not written up about how people should stop saying "sucks".

And it contains a very large number of lovely phrases like "She's 8" tall and will make you the envy of every bobble head collector. I'll give you a few moments to appreciate how pathetic that sounds."

Oh! And they like Asia Carrera too! Having read their interview with her, I have a new favorite quote by her:

"I don't watch pornos! What do I look like, some kind of sicko?"

No, I don't think the woman is thinking like a romance novel, nor do I literally think that a guy (me or otherwise) is likely to be literally coming up with a baseball team in his head. That would be exaggeration for humor value.

Do I think women pay more attention to the setting and overall mood, before and during sex, than guys generally or me in particular? Statistically, yes, I think so.

Ah. Well then, that I can perhaps agree with you on. But I don't think it's such an extreme difference that you can't really boil both parties down to the one primal "I want to have sex" urge. I mean, sheesh, give the female sex drive some credit here.

While the female sex drive deserves a great deal of credit, my experience has been that it's more likely to be affected by the "who, what, when and how" of the situation. Not that men are unaffected by those factors, just that they're more likely to be into the sex because, hey, sex!

And yes, women do that too. But in my experience it's not to the same degree. Many women spend a certain amount of time doing that, and it's not a long time, and afterwards they frequently refer to it as their "slut phase".
