Edward Laumann Quotations

I think it gives us a base for explaining why we had this enormous response to Viagra.

Male-centered cultures where sexual behavior is more oriented toward procreation tend to discount the importance of sexual pleasure for women.

Premature ejaculation is the biggie for men ? one in four worldwide report it. But the interesting thing is it doesn't have an adverse impact (on their rating of sexual pleasure) because it doesn't matter to them, though it may to their partner.

Often they don't even admit it to their partners. It's the old 'I've got a headache' instead of, 'I don't feel like having sex,'

It's not a feminine thing to do so it's a sign of liberality.

In relationships based on equality, couples tend to develop sexual habits that are more in keeping with both partners' interests. Male-centered cultures where sexual behavior is more oriented toward procreation tend to discount the importance of sexual pleasure for women.
