Nope. Women do indeed have deeper and more intricate fantasies about sex as you say, but men of course have much higher levels of testosterone than women, and testosterone is of course the main hormone which sparks and drives the libido. On average, an adult human male body produces about forty to sixty times more testosterone than an adult female body – and as a result men are biologically more sexual than women.

BE PROUD THAT YOU ARE A MAN, FOR THE HIGHER FORMS OF ARTISTIC, RELIGIOUS, AND PHILOSOPHICAL CONSCIOUSNESS ARE ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO THE MASCULINE:

Hell, even gay male poets manage to write much better poetry than even the best female poets despite their feminized gay brains; read:

So basically she concludes that women are more sexual and more concerned with sex than men are – and of course she blames “patriarchy” fur suppression of female sexuality, claiming that men knew that female sexuality was stronger than male sexuality, and feared it, so they suppressed it. In reality, of course, the suppression of female sexuality had to do with ensuring paternity, but it was likely based on a keen knowledge of the sexuality of women, and how sexual women, in fact, are — hence the belts and suspenders approach that was taken to female infidelity.

I *do* think that women are more sexual, in general, than men are. There are exceptions on both sides to this general trend, but in spite of her book’s shortcomings, I do think that Wolf is correct in that insight.

As for the Jewish angle, I don’t think it’s a coincidence, but it isn’t because they’re Jewish so much as the fact that they came from a lyrical tradition, as did some American country singers back in the old days. There is a lot more poetry in old American country songs than one finds in pop music.

Even so, I think you’ve got to decide whether it’s music accompanied by lyrics, or lyrics by music. The latter could be called poetry, but not the former.

But back to the point, sexually explicit lyrics seem to be directed mainly toward teenage boys or female fans. The more sexually suggestive a song is, the more it is appreciated by female fans, from what I’ve seen.

I also considered including rap.

However, I wonder whether we ought to draw a distinction between poetry and pop music. I think perhaps we should, except in a few cases, such as Dylan. For the most part, modern music is not so much about the lyrics, whereas poetry is only about the lyrics, even if they are intended to have a musical quality, as in Dylan Thomas’s works.
