I think women are worse then men in some cases. Usually the explicitness with which they are willing to discuss sexual matters is.

Article isn't really clear. I would like to know if women responded faster to all the images and if there were any images that men responded faster to. If not then the fact that women respond to erotic images faster is just piggy backing on their ability to understand symbols.

ALSO...the rapid response is not measuring how they are responding psychologically but only the speed at which they are responding. Women are kinda built to weed out or accept potential suitors or sperm donors, in a crude biological way its what we are built for..however if in the end the study is actually suggesting that women get more turned on then men I have a Suggestion: Take every oppurtunity to expose the femal...

Sorry to double dip on the clip but I read the entire article to see if it answered any of my questions and I have to say I'm kinda shocked but the conclusions it draws and am not sure how the researcher can justify it.

The fact that women respond faster does not imply that they are responding favorably. One thing does not neccesarily follow the other and I think its a sign of bad research that such a blantant logical fallacy could creep in so easily.

I do however tend to think that women may actually have hhigher sex drives and it has been proven that we become more aroused and have stronger orgasms.

Your reaction to this clipping says more about you than the clipping itself says about women. In essence women, in knowing they may become the bearer of children and the protector of them, the voice of reason and guidance, are more alert to apparent danger. On a personal note the ability of my brain to react quickly to the mere display of images, gives me the ability to without a second thought or curiosity of any kind to scroll to the bottom of the "public network " pages and report inappropriate public media.
Where as, the study could have done was to just study the brain's reaction time of men vs women. It is more the perversion of the one who elected this category of images to s...

That's a very interesting point Deb, hadn't thought about it from that angle. And the more I think about it, the more sense it makes -- the erotic sight would spark an alert in their brains and the brain deals with alerts through faster channels than other stimuli.

1st you have to consider the source the person who wrote the article latest topic was about the "Proliferation of Lice". We have to disregard things like an overwhelmingly positive response when a study is done at a university. There are too many unknowns. Who did the study? Who did they get for candidates? What keywords did the writer of the article use when they were looking for science topics? Did the Person doing the research ever pass his Thesis defense of the topic? That's right...did they make him go back and start over? These things are not clear because the reference is not easily traceable to the original study. Perhaps the credits are there somewhere, but the topic did no...

Ok, i'm a girl and while i agree with 123 completely. Also women lean more towards fantasy while guys lean more toward reacting to the Image. So if you introduce an erotic photo to a woman that disrupts any fantasy she had with reality. Therefore she reacts differently and/or more strongly.

Huh, leave it to a man to attempt to quanity what a woman is thinking or feeling! :>

So, Deb had a real point there about the reaction time not necessarily being arousal or in any way positive. But I think another way of getting to that point would've been that these people may have been told they would be looking at a range of emotion-evoking images, but the element of shock was inevitable; of course they would have strong reactions to the images--to anything shocking. Violence and other disturbing images have been all over the media for years, but only recently (last 20-30 years) have people been more open about erotica, at least in this country. It's still more taboo, and therefore would logically elicit a different response than something we're used to seeing in movies and on TV.
