why do girls use sex as a way to hopefully take a guy they like and turn him into a boyfriend? what makes them think that if they give them sex the guy will magically think she's the one and start dating her?

I've noticed a few questions on here that are along those lines and not to mention I have a few friends in that situation and I just want to slap them for sleeping with the guy and expecting him to automatically be her boyfriend because she gave it up. it boggles my mind when you will give that up for the hope of a crush.

was just wondering why and would love to know if you are in that situation and why or if you were or knew anybody who has. I wanna figure out what people are thinking when this is going on.

Okay, let's take a step back and look at things from 3rd person POV.

Men and women have one thing in common, we're both the same animal; human. We have the same desires, the same needs, and besides not being able to both produce eggs and sperm, we have the same things to offer one an other.

All else constant, there should be no differences. But society says there are; so there are.

During childhood development, as a male, you're told that unless you have sex with hoards of female humans, you're a loser. That the thing you hate the most is commitment and relationships, and what is most valuable to you is out-of-this-world, amazing and frequent sex with the hottest supermodels that ever walked on the face of the earth. As a female, you're told that if you have sex with hoards of male humans, you're a sIut. That the thing you hate most is being alone, and that if you are labeled a sIut, you will be alone. Ironically, if you're labeled a prude or virgin you'll also be alone, and if you're labeled a tease or whore, you'll definitely be alone. But what is most valuable to you is commitment, stability, security, and a happy marriage and family. That unless you're the perfect mom and wife, you're a loser.

So even though we're both human, these socially created and enforced roles based on our sex, shape our behavior, thinking, and most importantly; beliefs.

If you're a man, you might believe that women are asexual, have almost no desire for sex, or only pretend to desire sex so they don't get ignored and until they eventually get someone to marry them in which point they will no longer have to pretend anymore.

If you're a woman, you might believe that men are emotionless, have almost no desire for a relationship or love, or only pretend to want those things so they can have sex, and once they get what they want, they stop acting and move on to someone else.

Irreguardless if true or not, for as long as these are the core beliefs of men & women, these beliefs will cause them to behave much like two parties negotiating in a board-room.

Men will feel that they have (love, commitment, money, marriage, a relationship, emotion) as their bargaining chips, that everything else they can offer is not of value to women. Women will feel that they have (sex) as their only bargaining chip, that everything else they can offer is not of value to men.

And so, the negotiations begin.

But as men discover, women want sex too. And money and emotion just won't cut it.

Similarly, women discover, men want emotion (and sometimes money) too. And sex just won't cut it.

So why do SOME women do it? For the same reason SOME men take girls shopping, get them stuff, do things for them, listen to their problems, tolerate playing hard-to-get and games, go through the motions of dating, etc; because they believe she'll appreciate getting what she wants, and will make her feel for him, what he feels for her.

That's all there is to it..

Question Asker I never thought of it that way. but it really makes sense. girls think guys only want sex and guys only think girls want material items so I guess depending on who's chasing who depends on who gets what. - 17 days ago

jusabarasida Irregaurdless.. LOLLLL nah I'm just joking man.. grammer doesn't matter when you get point the point across.. True though.. women want sex too.. I think when men see how soon SOME women will give sex, it bothers them.. women think it seals the deal, but like you said.. SOME men take advantage of that. - 17 days ago

INSECURITY. girls need to spend more time getting to know themselves and being comfortable with who they are and what they want before they can be ready for a relationship - too bad too many don't respect themselves enough and are too insecure to get to that point first. Only then are they really capable of a mature, healthy relationship.

younger girls have lower/lowish standards, they're inexperienced and don't know what they can get so they settle. girls settle settle settle! it is a trap but its not hard to get into esp if the girl has low self-esteem or going thru dry spell/just wanting an inbetween guy. if a girl has sex, she presumes most of the time that its leading to something whereas for most men sex just means...sex. To me, sex is just like scratching an itch. obviously that's not ideal at all and I definitely want to have it special or whatever but its hard to meet someone you're really into so girls will settle. oh a lot of girls read cosmopolitan and other magazines which harp on and on about sex so it seems like every girl is having sex with every guy when not every girl is in reality that promiscuous. fine if you are but it does promote this blanket promsicuity culture so girls think its fine to sleep with guys too early on etc. I'm not a purist or religious nut, I just think girls need to increase our standards and not settle! most girls will like having a guy for the comfort and security even if they're not into them-some guys I've dated were purely out of comfort and they only really grew on me after a while-im sure I'm not alone in this

. I would think that in the times of friends with benefits more people would DOUBT the intensions of those who seek sex, rather then assumee it will lead to progress. I happen to think , not only will sex not create intimacy that is not there, but will prevent it from coming to fruition. When I feel close to somemone and they express interest in sex, I immediately think that we are not actually friends, or that this will ruin the friendship. I have never had a friendship ruin over sex ... I have also never had sex. Intellectually I think sex would have the use of giving greater expression of care for someone, but on a gut level I can't get all the junk that everyone is always talking about. Use her , use him. Use each other etc. Sex Is just a physical act without the relationship of the individuals involved. How you can know the meaning of an act before the people who are involved in it have even acted lacks logic... To look at people in such a dehumanized way as thought they are just emotions or thought unto themselves, with no possibility of communicating or respecting themselves helps to keep alive all the stereotypes that demean people and make you want to throw up. By the way, outside of cultural pressure, is there there actually proof that woman are so much more emotional then men? Perhaps they have better access to there emotions which in the long run would mean they will be better able to handle themselves emotionally, be less likely to blow up with no provocation, or pick a fight when they are frustrated. Maybe be the point is that people should work to harmonize needs and wants and respect of other human beings.

not all girls are like that
on a different perspective, if a guy just wants sex with a girl and he doesn't care about her-that doesn't mean she was using sex to do anything, maybe she didn't know any better because some out there don't - there are so many possibilities to a situation
i never liked to see things attributed to one reason and biased towards on aspect, if you look at situations more critically, it isn't as slanted or just for one reason, there's always more
reasons to it.

Question Asker And that's why I asked the Q to find out more reasons.. the bigest exaple I see of this is my friend jen.. she's using sex to try and get this guy to be her b/f. and in watching this I'm just trying to figure out what would drive her to do such a thing. but jdcpa explained it well. because I would get girls things in order to earn the boyfriend title and use what I thought would get their attention. - 14 days ago

we can associate sex with emotions, being wanted. especially as sex is sometimes a way of expressing how much a person means. if that makes sense...

Well, can't really add much to what jdcpa already said but here are some thoughts that went through my head.

Studies have found that men and women fall in love differently. For a woman it goes-attraction, love, sex. And for a man it goes-attraction, sex, love. That doesn't mean a man can't love without sex but it means that to get to the highest point, he usually develops the feelings of attachment and so for, after the physical union. So women are just looking at it from their perspective. If he sleeps with them he must have some form of attachment right? Cause after all, she has some form of attachment. So sex can make him be attached to her more and more everytime. That isn't the case but that's what a lot women think.

Another thing to realize is that a lot of these guys aren't saying they only want sex. A lot of them are smart enough to make it seem like they want more. One friend had a guy keep asking her for sex but he never said all he wanted was sex. He kept saying that he didn't feel like they could really go to the next level in the relationship until they had sex. He said he wanted to marry her, have babies with her, move to other states with her. All the while the relationship is such a joke any other person can see that. It wasn't even a relationship. It was just him talking to her occasional so he could get sex. But she believed him and wanted it to work. So remember a lot of these guys are offering these women their hopes and dreams.

Another issue, some women really think they can go into it and keep their emotions in check . But she finds out that sex is only bonding her to him and she begins to want more.

But it isn't always women. I know guys that wanted to take a relationship slow but gave in and had sex cause they thought they needed to. And ended up hurt because the relationship fell apart because of it.

I think the part that causes the biggest misunderstanding though, is that most women don't see sex as a need but a want. To them it's like dessert, not dinner. So they don't realize that to a guy, sometimes sex is just like jerking off into someone else. You just need to get rid of the tension so cause you have a warm body who is willing, it's better to do that then do it in the bathroom by yourself. Most women would really be shocked to realize that. So it would never occur to them that they are being used for something like that.

I think if a guy gives it up before they're dating. She will be seen as just that, sex. I think most guys like sleeping with sluts, they don't like making them they're girlfriends.

it's not that we "use" sex to get a boyfriend. girls naturally involve more emotions with sex than guys so we kind of associate the act of sex with love which makes us want more than just sex - eventually a relationship.

A girl who does that knows that many guys do with their penis tells them. You seem to ignore what your penis tells you and choose for yourself. Are you going to commit violence on that guy for listening to his penis or the girl who exploits the guy. Both are at fault.

It must be the sort you are hanging out with, not all girls use these sort of "Game-play" style, but for some girls its all they think the guys want, personally I would like a cute shy girl over the type that would jump into bed with me at any moment, I mean yes it would be nice but, hay wait a second its not everything I am after...

Some girls just see guys as people whom just want sex, possible your mixing with the wrong crowd or just giving off the wrong signals, though I am not too sure, its usually extremely hard to tell. Gotta love it =]

Emotional attachment. They think a guy can be hooked by sex alone.
