Where men can feel sexually aroused even with certain thoughts or images, the same is not the case for women. It takes time and effort for them to be aroused and desire sex. We have put together a few myths about female desire.

1. Females are only driven by their emotional needs

We surely have heard plenty about how females need to feel some kind of emotional attachment to the person they have sex with.

It is true to a very large extent, but if you think females are ONLY driven by their emotional attachments, this is quite misleading.

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that a lot of women can also initiate sex without the need for emotional closeness. This case may be truer in countries or cultures where women are more sexually liberated.

Of course, to a subtle extent, there must be some kind of emotional attraction that women seek, but that is not all there is to it.

As the American TV show Sex and the City would have you know, sexually liberated women also seek sexual pleasure just for the sake of sexual pleasure itself. And that’s why dildos are important!

2. Women don’t think about sex as much as men do

In many parts of the world, there is a persistent misconception about female sexual desire. Many people are still under the impression that women don’t think about sex as much as men do.

People have this weird expectation that women are pure and innocent, and only when seduced do they fall for the seducer. This is gravely wrong because, in reality, women think about and crave sex just as much as men do.

As reported by Women's Health, research indicates that women in their 20s display a notable level of sexual adventurousness. In a recent study, it was found that they were twice as likely as their male counterparts to attend swingers' parties, dungeons, or other sex-related events. This data highlights the significance of avoiding assumptions that men are inherently more sexually driven or the primary instigators of female sexual behavior. Women are equally capable of exploring and expressing their sexuality in various ways.

Of course, in reality, we still have to check every person on a case-by-case basis. But when talking about the collective, women and men are just equal when it comes to sexual desires.

However, aspects like culture, custom, religion, and general taboos may play a role in curbing women’s honesty about their real sexual desires. With that said, there could be a cultural restriction at play, too.

3. Females aren’t visual creatures

And who was that that initiated the idea that men are visual creatures and women aren’t? That was total hogwash.

Modern fandom cultures will have you know that females are just as visual as men, if not even far more creative when it comes to their sexual fantasies.

Women really like seeing beautiful things and they enjoy observing behaviours they find attractive. This applies to both hetero and homosexual women, by the way.

Little things about the person a woman finds attractive linger in her mind and she enjoys creating her own sexual fantasies from those little gestures. Even just the sight of a man’s abs or naked arms can excite a woman.

Women also can fantasise about having sex with their favourite celebrities whilst having sex with their actual partners! So, anybody who still thinks only men are visual creatures, they are quite gravely mistaken.

4. Females have an easier time being ‘faithful’ to one partner

Do you realise just how toxic people are in general? This power struggle between man and woman. A huge myth about female sexual desire revolves around the theme of fidelity.

For some reason, for thousands of years, people make it look like women have an easier time being loyal to just one partner.

So, because it is allegedly easy for them, they must not be forgiven when found to have cheated on their husbands.

Meanwhile, men are given such an easy time for the same crime because there is this notion that men are biologically wired to spread their seeds.

When you really think about it, that’s total hogwash created to elevate the status of men and suppress women. Recent studies have even suggested that the reality may be reversed instead.

According to the study carried out by Good Therapy, there is a common perception that men are more likely to be reported as unfaithful compared to women. However, upon closer examination, the difference between men and women in this regard is not as significant as initially believed. Multiple studies have indicated that women, like men, can also experience ease in being attracted to multiple people simultaneously. These findings suggest that sexual behavior and attraction are not restricted to one gender and can vary among individuals, regardless of their gender.

Women find it easier to get attracted to many people at once, but they control themselves.

5. Females have a lower libido than males

A similar misconception now touches biology rather than psychology. A huge myth in this department revolves around the idea of female libido. Men think that all women naturally have a lower libido than men.

But in reality, this is far from the case. Studies have shown that any woman could have as much sexual desire as an average man. Women fantasise about sex, dream of having sex with their favourite celebrity, as well as watch porn when they want to.

If it ever seems like they don’t do this kind of thing as much as men, it’s only because they aren’t always obvious—especially when it comes to watching porn. Not all women enjoy porn because of the depiction of sex in such videos.

They’re intended for male viewers and actually show blatant disrespect towards women, and that’s just one reason why women prefer to fantasise on their own.

According to the research reported by the Insider Inc, libido can be influenced by various factors such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, illness, menopause, or andropause due to hormonal changes. However, these factors do not inherently mean that women have a lower sex drive than men. It's essential to recognize that individual variations play a significant role in sexual desire.

To summarize the key findings, myths are always around when people talk about female desires. There is a need to eradicate these myths so people can look quickly for facts and avoid getting confused with myths.

Understand The Basics Of Reproductive System And Female Anatomy

Both male and female have different reproductive systems, which are unique and differ in structure and shape. These sex organs aid to distinguish between male and female. The female reproductive system is located in the pelvic region. The female anatomy and other composite parts allow them to become pregnant. Some of the vital organs that are helpful for the reproduction process are ovaries, uterus, cervix, vagina, and fallopian tubes.

Vulva

The external part of the reproductive system that is visible from outside is called vulthe va. Some of the major parts of them are clitoris, mons pubis, perineum, labia minora, and labia majora. Clitoris is located at the top of the vaginal opening. It is the most sensitive private part of women, which stimulates sexual pleasure in them. Men need to understand the importance of these features so as to enjoy a better sexual life.

Vaginal opening

It is a muscular canal, which is soft and flexible. The vagina provides the necessary lubrication and sensation. Men can enter penetrate their manhood through the vagina. Apart from this, it also serves as a medium for menstrual flow from the uterus. It is also named as the birth canal as the baby passes through this during the childbirth. You can also spot hymen at the entrance of the vaginal opening and it narrows down during the sexual activity. This membrane is very thin and soft, which often ruptures during exercises and sex.

G-spot can be seen on the front wall of the vagina, which is a sensitive area. It is one of the spots that stimulate female orgasm and it contains many sensitive tissues. The other end of the vaginal canal connected to the cervix and it is called as the minuscule opening. This vaginal tube plays an important role in the stimulation of sexual pleasure and female reproduction.

Internal anatomy of the uterus

The uterus can be divided into two regions, namely cervix, and body. The uterus is also known as the womb and its function is to nourish the fertilized egg until the child is born. The cervix is located on the lower portion of the uterus and it forms the neck part of it.

It protrudes through the anterior wall of the vaginal canal. This cylindrically shaped neck connects the vagina end and the uterus and it is made up of smooth and moist tissues. One of the major functions of the cervix is to direct the sperm entering through the vaginal opening to the uterus during the intercourse action. During the ovulation, the mucus is watery and clear which is suitable for welcoming the sperm.

Ovary

The ovaries produce sex hormones such as progesterone and estrogen. The ovary starts producing it when a girl attains puberty. It can be found on the lateral wall of the pelvic region and attached to the outer layer of the uterus through the Fallopian tubes. They are capable of housing the eggs that are needed for reproduction. These sex hormones are essential for the stimulation of sexual desire and to create an embryo.

In general, a person’s reproductive organs and genes are responsible for determining the sex of a person. A girl is capable of bearing a child when she starts to ovulate and menstruate.
