Gender Differences in Marriage - Blog Entry

This is a decent overview of the division between the sexes. In particular I think it's important to comment on the cuddling/closeness point from the male point of view. An excellent illustration of this is given in Louanne Brizendine's book "The Female Brain." In it she describes how the area of the female brain committed to communication and relationships is at least twice the size of that area in men. For men the area committed to the pursuit of and thoughts of sex is twice that in women. Men literally have sex on the mind, and as she puts it, sex is the "male communication." I am constantly amazed by how many women want to put off their men's advances with a not tonight blah blah but then turn around and are mystified when he's less open to cuddling and doesn't want to be close. It's obvious if you know this fact, we need sex to want to be close, you want to be close to want to have sex. For most men if sex is a regular (meaning several times a week) part of their lives, they will be more than happy giving their women the cuddling and closeness they crave. We'll spend time cuddling you in equal portion to how you spend time satisfying us in bed. Don't expect to be able to reject us and then not be rejected back when you come sniffing around wanting emotional intimacy. http://alphadominance.com
