High sex drive, addiction?

[JadenMia]

Hi all. I know that men are the ones that are 'known' to think of sex all day, watch porn and masturbate .. But as a woman, i do all these. Probably more than a lot of men do.

It started when I lost my virginity. I just LOVED it. I couldn't wait to have sex again and I was quite young.. 14 years old.
Now at 23 I'm still the same. If not worse. I watch porn and masturbate at least once a day. I constantly think about sex, and the littlest touch or kiss from my boyfriend makes me throb.

I have been with my boyfriend for nearly a year now and he has no complaints. But probably doesn't want or need it as much as I do. Although that doesn't bother me too much as I am satisfied with our sex life.

Is this normal for a woman to feel? My close friends who I can talk to, think I'm absolutely sex crazy.. But I can't help the way i feel. Lol
Does it sound like addiction or just a healthy sex drive?
Thanks

"Normal" is a setting on the dryer, honey.

Like men, women run the gamut of sexual drive. You've been blessed (or cursed) with a high drive. So what? You've got a mate that is more-or-less in tune with it. The only advice I'll give you is to NEVER settle down long-term with someone who's drive isn't at least close to yours.

If it helps - my wife's drive is very high. She's in her late 40's and I'm in my mid-40's, and we still average sex about six times a week... and some days when I'm not around for whatever reason, she pleasures herself, sometimes to some of my porn.

And she's the best woman that ever lived.

So again... so what?

I guess so

I did discuss my sex drive with him when we first started sleeping together, and we are on the same page so it seems.
It has ruined relationships in the past.. And men have mistaken it as been slutty or like I'm never satisfied. It's not like I want to sleep around. I just love being intimate with a man I trust.

I did worry that me masturbating and watching porn was a little strange. I do it even if I have had a good day of sex. But good to hear there are other women that do the same

Thankyou!

Sounds like you've been dating pussies most of your life

Sometimes I'll beat off immediately after sex. To me, it's abnormal to think there's anything wrong with porn and mastrubation. It tells me that you've been brainwashed against human sexuality by a social structure of paradigms that thinks sex is worse than murder.

I have dated pussies most of my life. Yes. Haha.

And I agree, i don't like how I feel women are made to feel dirty and shameful if we want or crave sex. Or that we were too 'weak' to give in to a man.

When I am pleasuring my man I feel like I'm the most powerful woman in the world and I'm in control. Not weak minded.

I talk to my friends a lot about sex and they are surprised when I tell them that I watch porn, or that I really enjoy giving my man a blowjob everyday. I can tell they think it's wrong and gross.
I'm just not like most women I know.

There is absolutely NOTHING WRONG with you wanting or craving sex. Nothing at all. There IS something wrong with your friends that think otherwise. They've been brain-washed by out-dated ideas.

There's an old concept, that I really think is true:

The perfect woman is a lady in the drawing room, a chef in the kitchen and a strumpet* in the bedroom.

*originally, it was 'whore', but that's got far too many negative connotations.

Enjoy your life as a real woman.

Let's put this in perspective Jaden. Think about the way our social structure and the paradigms it has created views sex. We've been seeing murder from all directions every which way in video games, movies, tv shows, on the news, etc. since the day we were born and nobody so much as bats an eyelash. But when a boob gets exposed on TV it's ****ing mass hysteria. The implications here that have been imprinted into our subconscious is that human sexuality is far, far more taboo than murder. In what way is that not completely ****ed up and ass backwards?

Now compare our views on sex today and the insane hysteria that we have toward human sexuality and compare it to the lack of said hysteria in historic cultures where said imprinting didn't exist. The only logical conclusion to draw from all of this is that almost everything we've ever been told about our sexuality by our respective societies is a lie. That goes for sexual women being "whores and undeserving of respect" and sexual men being "creeps" or "pigs".

I think that you just have a higher sex drive. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, as a number of people have them. Think about it like driving. Some people love to drive extremely fast, and some people like to take it a little slower. Does that mean there's something extremely wrong with someone who will take it a little about the speed limit? No. Does it mean that there's a problem with the one who doesn't? Certainly not. It's to each their own, OP.

Addiction only comes into play when it starts to control your life and becomes obsession- that you have to have your life revolve around that. And from what you've written on here, it doesn't sound like that at all.
