Sex is a mind game for women - study

It is the confirmation that men have long dreaded. Scientists have concluded that women achieve most sexual satisfaction through the stimulation of their brain and not any other organ, according to a report in London's Sunday Telegraph newspaper.

After eight years of tests involving 3,000 women, Pfizer, the company behind Viagra, the little blue pill that has transformed some men's sex lives, has abandoned efforts to prove that the drug works for females, too.

Its exhaustive research has concluded that men and women have a fundamentally different relationship between arousal and desire. A women's arousal is triggered by a network of emotional, intellectual and relationship-based factors rather than the simple physical response required by a man, it says.

Dr Mitra Boolel, the leader of the company's sex-research team, said: "The brain is the crucial sexual organ in a woman. While a man's arousal almost always led to a desire for sex, there was no such obvious corresponding factor with women.

"There's a disconnect in many women between genital changes and mental changes. This disconnect does not exist in men. Men consistently get erections in the presence of naked women and want to have sex. With women, things depend on myriad factors."

Pfizer has not given up all hope of finding an alternative to Viagra for women. Boolel has instructed his research team to concentrate on finding drugs that affect a woman's brain chemistry.

Dr Joe Feczko, the president of Pfizer's worldwide development, said that female arousal disorders were "far more complex than male erectile dysfunction".

"Diagnosing female sexual arousal disorder involves assessing physical, emotional and relationship factors, and these complex and interdependent factors make measuring a medicine's effect very difficult," he said.

Could have asked any woman and saved themselves lots of money! :o

What women?

I would love to know if the survey was carried out on woman of different races and from different cultures, perhaps even different socio-economic areas of the world. I do not know if it would have caused any different results, but would be interesting to see if these factors make a difference at all.

As a woman I can tell you that this "study" is disgusting, sexist garbage. Figures that it's an obviously ignorant man who conducted it.

Boolel's "study" is *crap*. Newsflash: millions of women use porn, participate in casual sex, use sex toys, etc. AND WE LOVE IT. I'm struggling to see the "emotional, intellectual and relationship-based factors" in any of those female activities. I'm a woman and I've never been turned on by poetry, shoes, flowers, dinners or any of that other garbage. I get really sick of sexist a**holes telling me what turns me on. I say to Boolel: You don't speak for me. You speak only for conservative a**holes like yourself. By the way, Boolel is not breaking any new ground with this bulls**t "study". He is peddling the same garbage that has been peddled by sexists for hundreds of years. There's nothing unconventional about it. Boolel should stop acting like he's breaking new ground by repeating the same bulls**t that has been said a million times. <deleted> Pfizer.

glad you dont feel very strongly about it Kaitlyn 

hehe bronco

Kaitlyn, do not know where you originally hail from, but it appears to me that the study was conducted on a small amount of women in the UK. Probably in the 40-60 age group and not open enough to even admit to themselves that they can be turned on by anything other than mental stimulation, if at all.

I made my previous comment because I didn't believe it to be true, either that or woman are fantastic liars :o

It is great to hear from you, keep it up :D

Well I'm glad Kaitlyn gets turned on by her porn. I, too am a woman and do not find it erotic. I think what he means by "mind" is perhaps something a little different than flowers and poetry. Sorry you have such an antagonistic view towards the world, nowhere is anyone telling you what to do and how to do it, just as you don't have the right to tell me what to do and how to do it. Just cause it turns your crank doesn't mean it does mine. And I don't feel that it makes me "less of a woman" because relationships and love are more important and erotic to me than a piece of meat! NEWSFLASH: women and men are different from person to person and just cause your experience is different from mine does not invalidate mine, just as my different experience does not invalidate yours. To each their own as it is said.

Kaitlyn can take it or leave it Bronco. She simply gave a balanced and heartfelt inclination as to her perspective. A well balanced view too. :D

its precisely because of women with attitudes like yours that so many western men

come to the east and eventually find women who are not afraid to be women,not afraid to be feminine and show it, and don't feel that they have to be in competition with their partners all the time.

your aggressive rant shows you for what i think you are.... a cold hearted bitch.

liking porn,poetry,plastic penises or the cerebral nature of romance in no way demeans or insults a woman.

save your bile for your sisters in camden town,detroit or whatever cold miserable place you come from.

I respect Katlyn's post, even though she used a cannon when a sling shot would have sufficed.

What she may have missed in her reading of the original post was the use of the term "arousal disorder".

Clearly she does not have this problem. Women who have difficulty becoming aroused are surely in a different quandry than men with "erectile disfunction".

Men can be aroused and have "erectile disfunction" thereby requiring the little blue pill. Women on the other hand, do not, as I understand it, require erectile function to enjoy sex. Thus "arousal" vs. "erectile" disfunction.

Arousal disfunction is an entirely different ball game, even for men. For anyone who has experimented with the blue pill will tell you, it can not make you erect, if you are not "aroused", which is a mental thing.

Few men, I suspect, are aroused by all naked female bodies, all porn or all other stimuli. Thus, the brain triggers the arrousal and it is the brain in both females and males that is the key organ that controls sexual arousal. Thus the mental stimuli varies between men and women, depending on complex factors arising during puberty and before. "What turns you on" and "Different strokes for different folks" best describes my thoughts on this issue.
