So it's that time again, another one of my follow-ups. I post this one to not only talk about the results but to also add a few things I forgot to mention in the first one: "Guys Have A Harder Time Getting Sex?"
There is actually much I can say on this whole topic of whether it's harder for guys/easier for girls to get sex, especially since I've written on it extensively in the gender book I've been authoring for the last some years, but I still have to try to condense it for social media audiences, which can take away from some of the point when you can't include everything you need to.
And I also want to point out that I am somewhat flabbergasted at a recent a double standard: last week I posted my original myTake on this subject, and it only got promoted by the mods, but then some days ago an anonymous female posted her own on the flipside for women, and hers gets featured. That did make me pretty upset, yeah. So you're telling me that it's more acceptable if a woman can write about the topic of sexual availability, and not a guy? People don't want to believe us guys when we talk about the double standards that go on here, but it is true. And it's one of the reasons why I stopped working for mods on other sites long ago, because even they do want they want and show favoritism to who they want. They'll tell you that's not true, but it is, and I've known how the inside works.
But, enough about that.
The results: So if you were one who read my original take "Guys Have A Harder Time Getting Sex?" then you would've noticed that most of the comments were from guys, who insist that it really is true. I will say that it's very curious to see so many guys on this site talking about how hard it is for them to get sex, what I've never seen to be this bad on any other site. So it says to me that a large chunk of the guy populus on GaG must really be guys who've had trouble with it, giving us the illusion that that's the case all over in life. Social media can be decieving like that at times, and that's because certain sites attract certain demographics that are different from other sites, and even different from real life. So GaG just happens to be one where a lot of virgins and inexperienced people come to, which is neither good or bad, just interesting to note.
But also, I believe there's a psychological element to it for a lot of guys too. Just because one can't get laid, he tends to think all other guys must be having the same problem too, just because they're guys, when this isn't really the case. And also, guys have a tendency to look at women they think are hot and think she can get sex any time she wants, even though her hotness is subjective: a hot girl to one guy is just plain or unspecial to some other guys, but because he thinks she's hot, it must mean all other guys think so too. It doesn't always work this way. Often times girls I thought were smokin' sexy were just so-so to my guy friends, and ones they thought were smokin' were so-so to me. I'm sexually obsessed with the 'plus size' Cosplayer Ivy Doomkitty, and other guys on her Facebook page are too, but I also know that there are more guys who say she's fat and think I'm an idiot to want to have sex with her. And on a flip side lots of guys are crazy about Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift, both of which are farther from sexy to me than the moon. Hotness and sexiness are subjective.
I'm also coming to think - from my observations of guys on this - that although many talk about how easy it is for females to get sex in an envious way, it seems to be that perhaps guys subconciously find this sexy at the same time. While that idea might bother them, it still seems like in their minds a woman's worth or value is determined by how much sex she could obtain, and if she's not one who lots of guys would want to sleep with, then he wouldn't find her to be very sexy either. I could be wrong about this, but it seems to be the case the more I observe guys.
Final Thoughts: So basically, yeah, I still think it's not very hard for guys to get sex, and this is due to the fact that I mentioned in the first post: a lot of females are still pretty easy for a lot of guys to get sex from. It's not a pretty or becoming fact, but still one nonetheless. A lot of females try to speak for their entire gender about how they have more standards and are more resistant and less focused on sex than men, but that's not as true as they make it out to be. Sex is actually more available for guys to get in these times than ever. It's very easy to find a willing female in today's society, but women are pretending this isn't true, and a lot of guys have been duped by this too.
If getting sex from a woman was really that hard, then you would never have guys try to get it or talk up a girl. If it was really going to be that impossible, guys would just never try, but they're still doing it because they know it can happen and has happened. That's why guys can go online to look for girls they can meet, because they know it's possible. That's why guys can get sexy or nude photos sent to their phones or emails from women they only just met - even I have. Or how they have girlfriends but are still playing with other women "on the side" or "on the low."
Some women who think it's easier for them to get sex try to use the argument that it's because "women get a lot of offers," which may be true, but also many women have accepted those offers without a problem, which still empowers the men in the end because he asked, and he got. She just said yes, but didn't pursue.
So, yeah, I still think it's pretty easy for guys to get it, and I think a lot of guys here on GaG are ones who aren't getting it so they're giving us the impression that it's the case all over in real life. I'm not gonna go into any long details about my experiences or other guys in real life, but they certainly differ from these guys here feeling low because they can't get a girl to sleep with them.
