Feminism and sex

of women from men.

and how widely it has been followed,

all aspects of gender relations in America.

Cindy Meston directs the Sexual Psychophysiology Laboratory
at the University of Texas at Austin.
She is a past president of the
International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health.
If there is something you want to know about what turns women on,

“We spent six years of research on why women have sex,” Meston says.
They compiled 237 reasons.
Duty sex. Revenge sex. Pity sex.
Bored sex, engaged in because women simply had nothing better to do.
“Of the 237 reasons why women have sex,” Meston says,
“not one was looking at a man’s genitals.”
