Sitcoms, cartoons, romantic comedies, and books always depict men as having these insatiable sexual appetites. Wherever we saw it, we’ve all witnessed the picture of a woman reading her book in bed, rejecting her partner’s advances. A sad, blue-balled man is left in the dark after his partner says, “Not tonight” and turns off the lights. But that’s not what real life is always like. Not only do I have a much higher sex drive than my partner’s, but a lot of my female friends report wanting to do the deed far more frequently than their boyfriends and husbands do. What’s with these guys? Don’t they know they’re supposed to be horny all of the time? I’m just kidding, of course. There is no way women or men are supposed to be, but I can’t help but feel a bit funny being the pursuer of sex most of the time in my relationship. Here’s what it’s like when your libido is much higher than his.
