Inside The Messy Psychology Of Sexual Double Standards – Cheating’s OK For Me, But Not For Thee

David M. Buss, The University of Texas at Austin College of Liberal Arts Sexual double standards – in which women and men are judged differently for the same sexual behavior – will probably sound familiar to most people. The classic one centers on multiple sexual partners: Men who are promiscuous are lauded as “studs,” “lotharios” or “ladies’ men,” while women who have a lot of sex get called “sluts” or “whores.” Men who cheat on their wives aren’t exactly praised, but they’ll often get a pass. Women who do the same, on the other hand, risk sullying their social reputations. There’s a different sexual double standard, however, and it’s one that exists between two partners. In my new book, “When Men Behave Badly: The Hidden Roots of Sexual Deception, Harassment, and Assault,” I spend so...

Virtual Is Here To Stay: 5 Creative Ways People Are Connecting In A Digital World

(BPT) - A year into the pandemic and a virtual lifestyle is the reality for many people. Remote work and online education are just the start - many people have taken a virtual approach to the way they shop, socialize, stay connected with friends and family, and much more. The interesting thing is that research shows this shift is here to stay. "Working remotely has accelerated the use of video meeting platforms that keep us connected, whether that's through a computer, mobile device or - as we ease back to offices - conference room system," says John Knightly, chief marketing officer for BlueJeans by Verizon. "What's interesting is our research shows that these platforms are being used for personal reasons more frequently than ever before. People are handling personal to-do's and connectin...

The Misconceptions That Arise From Pornography

Women can engage in sexual activity indefinitely because they are unresponsive with a lover. In porn, so-called multiple orgasms offer a way of explaining how women could apparently be re-aroused indefinitely. Porn actresses moan intermittently throughout the male performance. They build in some smaller climaxes along the way to bring the man on. It's as if women are aroused and re-aroused on a never-ending basis until the man has had his orgasm. Finally when the man is about to ejaculate, the woman is miraculously also simultaneously satisfied. Ideally she brings her vocal accompaniment to a final crescendo coincident with the man's orgasm. Porno actresses provide vocal accompaniment as a male turn-on. Men don't have to make all that noise to convince a lover that they have had an orgasm...

Sex As A Bargaining Chip In Loving Relationships

Relationships of any kind are an inevitable compromise. No two individuals, even of the same sex, have exactly the same priorities at exactly the same time. When we are single, we can focus on our own selfish needs. But when we have a relationship with another person, we need to consider their needs as well as our own. Sometimes these two demands conflict. A key principle of heterosexuality is that a woman offers intercourse on her terms. Intercourse is a privilege that a woman confers on a man as a sign of her approval. Naturally this causes men to feel controlled by women. A woman wants a man to be affectionate, interested in her concerns and willing to respect her wishes (requests she makes about issues that she cares about). Many men reject these requests as unimportant because they se...

How A Woman Can Interest A Man In Having Sex

In the early days of a relationship, a couple may explore different approaches to pleasuring. Given women's sexual passivity, it is typically the man who takes the sexual initiative. A man has the motivation to explore a lover's body because he is aroused by doing so. A woman is not. Typically men try different approaches to sexual pleasuring with the boundaries set by a woman's objections. Over time instead of this random and silent approach, a couple may want to invest in more open communication about their sex life. A woman could suggest, outside the bedroom, the activities she would like to try or how she would like a lover to stimulate her. Women should be more proactive with a lover. If a woman has read erotic literature or watched porn movies, she may identify with the role of givin...

Helping Make Society More Respectful And Equitable – Nurturing Dads Raise Emotionally Intelligent Kids

Kevin Shafer, Brigham Young University When my oldest son, now nearly 13, was born in July of 2008, I thought I could easily balance my career and my desire to be far more engaged at home than my father and his generation were. I was wrong. Almost immediately, I noticed how social policies, schools and health care systems all make it difficult for dads to be highly involved and engaged at home. Contradictory expectations about work and family life abound. As a fatherhood researcher with four kids of my own, I am convinced that fathers are transformative figures for children, families and communities. But a man’s mere presence, paycheck and willingness to punish misbehaving children is not nearly enough. Many of the benefits of fathering for children come from dads being nurturing, lovi...

Men & Women’s Perspectives On Relationships

Sexuality is about a sexual relationship, which includes social, emotional and sexual aspects. Long-term committed relationships are vital to supporting families over the decades needed to raise children. A woman wants affectionate companionship but a man focuses on his sexual needs. We have two sexes, which complement each other by being different. Men see their personal status as central to how others value them. They enjoy erotic fantasies and genital activity. A man is sexy because he is responsive. Women are emotional. They enjoy love and companionable activities. A woman is sexy because she makes effort to attract a man and fulfill his needs. If men and women wanted the same things in life, then we would have a much easier time getting on with each other. Of course, no two people are...

How A Heterosexual Man Can Have Sex More Often

When talking about sex, adults often fail to take into account the very different experiences we have. We may also have very different responses to the same experience because of our different personalities. Nor it is acknowledged that the frequencies with which a woman is expected to be amenable to intercourse are related to her partner's sex drive not her own. Some men like to engage in foreplay. This male behavior focuses on prolonging male arousal. Educated men look for a deeper emotional connection with a lover in their sex lives. A man who wants an engaged partner, puts more pressure on a woman because he expects a response of some kind or a performance. This make sex more onerous for a woman so she becomes less willing to invest the extended time in having sex. One of the main justi...

From 1950s ‘Domestic Goddess’ To Modern Day Maverick: How Cleaning Routines Have Changed Over Time

Taking care of the space we call home is human nature. There is evidence that as early as Neanderthal times we were decorating our caves with ornaments, and painting on walls to share stories and entertain loved ones. Nowadays, we are more likely to be fending off unwanted phone calls than a predator in the wild, but our drives when it comes to our home remain the same. We may be more sophisticated with the resources at our disposal, but there is one thing we're lacking more than ever before. Time. Our busy lives have evolved in such a way that they have shaped how we clean and take care of our home. Many of us are juggling commitments like a family, full-time job, part-time business, social life, and community activities - all in the same week! Previous decades were exceptionally hou...
