You've Got To Be Kidding

Human Extinction Must Be Near Because Women Allegedly Don’t Want To Have Sex Anymore


You know that whole “Fifty Shades of Grey” craze? It’s in no way indicative that women enjoy getting it on. “How to Stay Married” author and long-time journalist Jilly Cooper says sex is no longer a thing because “women don’t want to have sex any more.” News to me.

The writer argues that it’s less marketable today than in the past because the friskiness of females has decreased considerably:

“Doctors’ waiting rooms are absolutely brimming these days with women suffering from low libidos. Ours is now a terribly under-sexed society. I have talked to a lot of young women about this and they just don’t seem to do it any more. Honestly. I suppose it’s because we all have so many other demands on our time now.”

On the widespread “Fifty Shades” obsession? She says people just like the “zeitgeist” of it. Gotcha. Forget the jump in sex balls sales, “Fifty Shades” classes, or popularity of the sex books. Clearly, we’d rather read about it than do it. I guess the end really is near.

    Funny, I just scheduled sex with the boyfriend for my lunch break. Guess now I have to cancel because, as a woman, my libido is just soooo low. Perhaps doctors’ rooms are swarming because women actually WANT to have sex now.

    Scheduled sex?  Wow…how exciting.  Gives new meaning for the “To-DO” list, though.

     It is, actually. Anticipation and what not.

    Environment. Specifically in America, we are over-worked and prone to self-loathing (in contradiction with the conservative narrative that everyone outside of the 1% is lazy and prone to frivolity). This pressurized, and often joy free environment, affects libido and more pointedly, puts strain on human-to-human interactions. 

    Who wants to bang your significant other when you just had a 45 minute knock down drag out over the cable bill?

    Perhaps, with a long life, people were not built for monogamy and some women would simply prefer to shut off than seek a more compatible partner.  And upon further speculation, this in turn could be a product of an idealized and fulfilling romantic life promised to women by the media.

    If women are going to doctors in droves in order to fix their libido, I’d say women want sex more than ever.

    I used to have a decent amount of sex.  Then I got married.  Then I got divorced and started having sex again.  6 of my friends have gone through the same process.  We are all early 40′s.  What’s with you women…we commit to you, and you commit to abstinence.

    You are pathetic. If you and your friends think marriage is about just sex then it is small wonder you and your friends are divorced. It is about sharing a life – including sex. With too many of you guys the “life” part is simply ignored and then you wonder why sex starts to diminish? Grow up!

    well you obviously have your priorities screwed up.  Maybe she’s a conservative and thinks you’re lazy and can’t focus.  Just a thought.

    If any partner of any sex is not satisfying the other.There will be a problem.
    Do you want to keep your partner?
    Keep him or her satisfied.

    Seems like a broad statement,

    and these broads need to snap out of it.

    Hmm…I see you opted to make this personal, rather than challenge the general social environment of my argument. Sorry to say that my argument wasnt a cover for a personal agenda, formed from bitterness.

    You dont have to hold your breath any longer. Im good in the sex dept.

    “whats with you women”

    Dismissive, insulting rhetoric like that might be YOUR problem.

    I wouldn’t be surprised that women don’t want sex any longer.  And maybe it has to do with Internet porn and the absolutely wrong ideas men are getting from it.

    Men need to understand that about two-thirds of the time with the lady is foreplay:  dinner, maybe the cinema or postprandial walk in the park or along the seaside.  Don’t forget the red/white wine, a chocolate.  Much of what happens is before the clothes come off:  caressing and kissing.  Some get warm in 5 minutes, some take an hour.  If she’s hot, then it’s well worth the patience.

    Is this the new PROPAGANDA as the “in thing” (after admitting to be lesbian) so to “stem population growth”? Probably.
    Those who take polls have an AGENDA and thus don’t trust their results.

    and you had no trouble making it political.  You still sound bitter.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_C6VTISVWOSMPSEMO36TZKUCXKU Dante Goodman

    Yes. Our social environment is governed, controlled, and narrated by political forces.

    Both me and my girl work 2 jobs, scheduled sex is all we get.

    They left a little bit of information out of the story. 95% of the women who have the low libido are married to Republicans.

    If the GOP succeeds in outlawing contraception, neither sex is going to want to do it.
