Bergner asks: Are women actually the less monogamous gender? Do women really crave intimacy and emotional connection? Are women more disposed to sex with strangers and multiple pairings than either science or society have ever let on? And is "the fairer sex" actually more sexually aggressive and anarchic than men? While debunking the myths popularized by evolutionary psychology, Bergner also looks at the future of female sexuality. Pharmaceutical companies are pouring billions of dollars to develop a "Viagra" for women. But will it ever be released? Or are we not yet ready for a world in which women can become aroused at the simple popping of a pill? Insightful and illuminating, What Do Women Want? is a deeper exploration of Daniel Bergner's provocative New York Times Magazine cover story; it will spark dynamic debates and discussions for years to come. 650 0 $a Women $x Sexual behavior. 650 0 $a Lust. 650 0 $a Women $x Psychology. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Sexual fantasies. 650 0 $a Women and erotica. 650 0 $a Sexual excitement. 650 0 $a Sex therapy. 650 0 $a Desire. 941 $a 2 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611022039.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220518010524.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9763C412543011E4AFDA21CADAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
