guys= sex obsessed?

Am I right in saying that most guys are sex-obsessed, more so than most girls? It seems most guys are very sexually active either physically or mentally, and are generally open about it (well on this forum it seems that way). Some guys have told me they're open about talking or joking about masterbation, girls, sex etc with their friends, it's more awkward with girls I'd say. Girls/guys- what d'you think- is this true?

A few Qs for the guys:
what age do you start thinking about/doing sexual things?
how often do you think about sex/sex-related things?
how often do you get turned on?
how often do you masterbate? (personal I know, but it'd be interesting to know this)
when starting a relationship, are you keen to become sexually active quickly, is it something very important to you in a relationship with a girl?

Thanks

I've heard that girls are just as sex obsessed as guys, they are just less vocal about it!

1) dunno maybe 13?
2) the only time i dont is when im asleep, and even then...
3) dunno its hard to measure, its pretty random even though im past the age of random boners.
4) infrequently but about 5 times a week
5) waiting isnt a massive problem i guess.
A few Qs for the guys:
what age do you start thinking about/doing sexual things? about 10
how often do you think about sex/sex-related things? every 20 mins ? maybe more or less
how often do you get turned on? Depends how often i see a stimulus lol
how often do you masterbate? (personal I know, but it'd be interesting to know this) - err every other day
when starting a relationship, are you keen to become sexually active quickly, is it something very important to you in a relationship with a girl? nope

Thanks for the replies. Though thinking about sex every 20 mins? I'm shocked! That's an average of 36 times a day, if you're awake 12 hours. :eek:

I'm a girl and I think about sex just as often as my boyfriend, though I'm less open about it.

Thats not alot really.
Absolutely not at all.

I'm a guy and i'm not sex-obsessed.

Some guys are, yeah, but I would say all of the decent guys aren't.. like me! :smile:
1) i'd say around 11
2) every 4 hours if im lucky
3) depends on the day
4) once a day, always, every day, no exceptions. (just like a coo-coo clock!)
5) depends on the girl, some prefer to go directly into sexual things before even going out a few times. sadly, many more will prefer to go out first, i normally let the girl decide (it is a wise thing to do u know? :wink: )
definatly not true! some guys im sure, but girls just as much, the men i know im worse than all of them put together probebly! and me n the girls always talk about it just like the men do!
Some girls are very sex-orientated and open about sexual matters - I'm happy to talk about sex in detail with some girl friends (sometimes they give waaaay too much detail!), although a few others are very guarded about sex and hate talking about it. I think girls are less likely to talk about masturbation than boys though, and maybe talk more about sexual health matters.
I certainly think about sex alot! (I'm female)
Sex drive is linked with testosterone levels which are 20 times higher in men, on average, than women.

what age do you start thinking about/doing sexual things? 12/13
how often do you think about sex/sex-related things? Quite a lot!
how often do you get turned on? Often.
how often do you masterbate? Probably daily on average - maybe twice daily.
when starting a relationship, are you keen to become sexually active quickly, is it something very important to you in a relationship with a girl? Not really...
Where you could say "guys are obsessed with sex". I don't see it that way whatsoever. It's all relative, I see girls as tending to be sexually fridgid and guys as being normal.


what age do you start thinking about/doing sexual things?
Very young.. From about 8-9 I thought about it naively. From 12 was when I started "doing" sexual things.
how often do you think about sex/sex-related things?
Every time I see a nice face/shape/cleavage/ass on the street/tv/magazine. If I smell a nice perfume or hear a girl with a scottish accent.. Most of the time I require a trigger, but it takes very little.
how often do you get turned on?
Almost everytime I think of sex, which would be a lot. If by turned on you mean erection, the two don't always go together (unless you need them to, and even then some people still have probs)
how often do you masterbate?
On average? Twice daily.. I'm not in a relationship
when starting a relationship, are you keen to become sexually active quickly, No, not really. I prefer to build up to things. More fun that way IMO. It also depends on what you mean by quickly. If I'm a month into a relationship I expect to be getting laid (at 22 I mean come on).
is it something very important to you in a relationship with a girl? Even though it's not something I'd like to rush into it is very important. Physical intimacy is a large chunk of a relationship, otherwise you might as well just be brother and sister.

1. Around 15ish
2. A lot if I am chating to ladies, but don't let them think it
3. A lot, more if I am interviewing girl rock bands for my magazine.
4. Once or twice a week, if I be chatting to girls more.
5. Try to keep it very much how she likes all the time

That's a little harsh. You can still have a healthy sexual interest and be a decent guy.

it's hardly our fault we love to think about/do that kind of stuff - we're biologically hard-wired that way :wink:
