In 1997, Durex, a British-owned condom manufacturer, asked 1,055 American men and women, as part of a worldwide survey, which they would rather choose sex or an unlimited shopping spree on someone else s gold credit card. Half opted for the free shopping spree. Even though women have less cultural permission to be sexually experienced, they have more cultural permission to talk about it among their friends, Paget told HealthAtoZ in an interview. When it comes to talking about sex, she says men are generally much more private than women. If you believe in the different planet theory about the sexes, then it will probably come as no surprise to learn that men and women, generally speaking, view sex differently.
Men often enjoy a fast rush to sex.
Women prefer a slow buildup. Most men absolutely love getting a tongue kiss in the ear, but most women abhor this. Men tend to be visual creatures, coming alive at the mere sight of a bare breast. Women are more aural and tactile. They need to hear and to feel a man in order to get excited.
