I kind of hate the double standard, but I understand where it comes from. Men=strong hunters, women=soft nurturers and homemakers. Woman, even in this day and age are still viewed by our patriarchal society as being largely asexual...only willing to do "the deed" in order to procreate. We all know that the assertion is ridiculous, as women demonstrate time and again that we are HIGHLY sexual and our appetites can run as hot as any man's. Heaven forbid a woman should want to satisfy those sexual urges. Heaven forbid and the earth should swallow her whole if she wants to satisfy those sexual urges with more than one man. The idea that a woman is a whore for doing so is archaic. I'm a one man woman myself, but I don't think any woman should be vilified for enjoying an active sex life. JMHO.
