Would You Rather Have Sex or Eat Chocolate?

» Sex Education

This interview with Joan Sewell the author of I’d Rather Eat Chocolate makes her seem a woman with a low sex drive and low empathy. The former is fine. Lustfulness varies like everything.

That she’d rather masturbate than - to use a term she disparages - make love with her husband makes her sound lazy. But that is an issue between them.

Her lack of empathy causes her to make some pretty odd generalizations about female sexuality.

Yeah, that’s part of it, a strong part of it. When you make a guy into a sex object, implying that you like him physically more than for any other quality, you’re seen as more powerful. If you go to a male strip club, the women get out of control! But are they getting out of control because they really want to leap on stage and get screwed by some guy? No, I don’t think so. I think it’s a kind of revenge.

I love when women make sweeping generalizations about “our” sexuality. I’ve been to male strip clubs, and I have to say, yes, I’m fantasizing, not hating. Objectifying someone sexually doesn’t make anyone more powerful. Case in point: romance novelists. Exactly what power do they wield? Yet almost all of their male characters are made over into fantasy versions of real men. You’re almost surprised these characters have penises.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Would You Rather Have Sex or Eat Chocolate?. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
