Are men and women really from different planets?

 

By Chris Thomlinson

Venus and Mars

 

The two Roman immortals above are representative of a book entitled: ‘Men are from Mars, women are from Venus’, which was first published in the US.

 

I first noticed it when the authors, a man and a woman. were interviewed about the book on ITV’s long running ‘This morning’ programme, a so called magazine type show that promotes items, including Viagra and its effect along with books, films etc.

The book takes the view that men and women are from different planets. Mars, the Roman God of war while Venus represented love and, with it, peace, the complete opposite to war and all its violence.

 

As the UK’s leading erotologist, and taking an aspect of that into consideration, along with the fact that I’m also the UK’s leading author of genuine erotica (16 books and 700+ stories to-date), the comparisons are best made with Greek gods, those of Aphrodite, the love of the heart, and Eros, who represents erotic (meaning) sexual love (that being its dictionary definition).

 

Although neither one has a planet named after them that is more of a good thing while, and at the end of the film ‘The Clash of the Titans’, a film steeped in Greek mythology, Pegasus, among others, was woven into a constellation of stars.

 

In short, women love (the Aphrodite aspect) while well-educated men are capable of sexual love (the Eros and erotic influence).

Women love sexual love. As many as 86%, in fact, according to a survey in Cosmopolitan UK.

 

For those who have or haven’t read one of my many other enlightening articles, it’s very much the difference between a 5 minute jog (sex) and a leisurely walk that takes anywhere from 30 to 180 minutes (sexual love), slow and oh so sensual, directed at bringing the woman to a state of post orgasm and beyond. ‘Why stop at just the one when you can have so many more!’

 

Unfortunately for women, according to Susan Quilliam’s 1996 book, ‘Women on Sex’, 90% of women surveyed were getting anything but productive sexual love from their male partner, while that very much is the case, in general, today.

 

Sexual love is all about eroticism, mentioned towards the end of ‘Emmanuelle’, a young, very much, sexually naïve women’s journey, according to the blurb, to that of realising, not just her full potential as a woman, but the pleasure that the 90% of women in Quilliam’s book fail to achieve; climax (orgasm) through sexual intimacy.

 

Conclusion. Far from being from different planets, even metaphorically, which is what the title implied, when everything is right and perfect the fusion of the two, love and the intensity of the passion associated with war, weave together to produce a heady blissful cocktail of heart pounding, hip thrusting, slick sweating heaving bodies, each one urging the woman to one orgasm after the other before the man gives of his seed.

 

Try it some time. You never know, you may, just like Oliver Twist, find yourself asking for ‘more’. Why deny yourself the ultimate of all free pleasures.
