      Men consume internet porn more as an escape from an unsatisfying life, while women use it more to spice up an already satisfying life. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12119-018-9518-2 …pic.twitter.com/EpD64BLyQs

      The problem is that men's (sex) life is doomed by nature to not be satisfying. They are doomed to be horny. https://plus.google.com/101046916407340625977/posts/YqmDFX693No …pic.twitter.com/HYDU6kFwaQ

      Oh dear, poor Rolf. Good sex is a learned skill, not a biological issue.

      dear John, I advise you to read this book. It is the best one about sex ever written. Even has a female co-author.https://www.amazon.com/Social-Dimension-Sex-Roy-Baumeister/dp/0205324428/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1523527827&sr=1-1&keywords=the+social+dimensions+of+sex …

      Dear Rolf, if reading a book will give you a more satisfying sex life, then go for it mate. Whatever helps. Nothing worse than enduring bad sex. Except no sex, I guess.

      The Marx citation explains your gleeful denial of reality. Keep building that house of cards.

      What? You think that unsatisfying sex is embedded in genes, and this is 'reality'? And that thinking that good sex is a learned and developed skill is a Marxist fantasy? OK - enjoy your Libertarian paradise. Wasn't it Lib. Rothbard who thought child prostitution was fine? Puke.

      According to the body of research, men are generally more sexually unsatisfied because of their evolved (based on genes) insatiable drive for sexual diversity. Baumeister's tragedy of the male sex drive is one of the basic facts of life. You can easily become a science denier.

          Pseudo-scientific nonsense. That you people pretend to be scientists doesn't actually make you that. Hence the necessity of evo-psych to publish so widely in pseudo-journals, Quillette, and to the far right mob on social media. But no stupidity lasts for ever.

          Most evolutionary psychologist are liberals. That has been proved.
