SuprDave I think we are all a sexual beings. Meaning that sexual desire is a Continuum range with some people wanting some type of erotic body contact at least once in their life to the people that want IC /MB every hour. That is the statistical range. Just pointing out that there are variances in sex drives. Thank goodness the averages are not that far from the center.
I college, I enrolled in a "Human sexuallity" class for my Human Services degree. People with disabilities, physical and mental. One group we studied were from an island off Scottland. They had IC once a month with their clothes on. (cultural beliefs, men gone most of the time, and not much food were the written reasons for this frequency).
A south Pacific island group had IC 3 times a day. (cultural, it did not take much work to gather food, and everyone in the village looked after all of the children).
Then there were the religious body "Oneida Shakers group" in NY in 1840 http://www.nyhistory.com/central/oneida.htm Men, women seperat dorms, had to sign up for IC, could not have IC with the same person for a while, Had to have IC with someone different / rotation, make Woman have "O", no ejeculation for man.
The trick is to realise there are differences is sexuallity, desire and are you living with someone who fits with in your range. Or can you get your minimum needs met.
Too bad the 1X a years people marry the 1X a day people. I have to jump through too many hoops to do it with W. She wants everything except the IC most of the time.
