Casual encounters Men vs. Women

August 26, 2009 at 12:33 am (Uncategorized) ()

I recently read an article that gave the scientific explanation for the reason women have a harder time with casual sex than men, I thought it was interesting so I thought I would share.

Apparently a chemical called oxytocin is released during nipple stimulation and orgasm that when mixed with estrogen causes feelings of bonding, it is the same chemical released during child birth and nursing that helps mothers form such a strong bond with their child. When oxytocin and testosterone get together they do not seem to have this effect.

So this means that men do not come to feel this biological bonding that women do and makes casual sex casual but women have this biological thing going on that also apparently has a cumulative effect, so the longer a non emotional relationship is carried on the more attached the women becomes.

I find this very interesting and can track these effects through my own experiances.

I carried on a pretty long casual relationship with one person and rarely experienced orgasm so I never felt any emotional connection to him. On the other hand I have had shorter casual relationships with men who knew how to deliver, so to speak, and did find myself thinking more on the emotional aspects of the relationship and imagining future possibilities.

I guess this means if you are looking for a completly unemotional sexual relationship it had better be with someone who is unable to make you climax, and really, whats the point in that?
