Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

All surveys of sexual practices indicate that men engage in more frequent sexual activity than do women. Most people assume that males have a stronger biological drive (craving for sexual activity and pleasure) than women, but that is not necessarily true. Men think about sex more often, are more frequently sexually aroused, have more frequent and different fantasies, desire sex more often, desire more partners, masturbate more often, are less able or willing to go without sex, more often initiate sex, less often refuse sex, use more resources to get sex, make more sacrifices for sex, have a more favorable attitude toward and enjoy a wider variety of sexual practices, and rate themselves as having stronger sex drives than women. However, women have a higher capacity for sex, are biologically capable of engaging in sexual behavior for a longer period of time, are capable of more orgasms than men, and do not have a refractory period.
There are also differences in how each sex defines sexual drive. For many men sexual desire is defined primarily by physical pleasure and sexual intercourse. However, women appear to define sexual desire more broadly and include in their definition the need for emotional intimacy. Female sexual responses may be more complicated than a biological-affective drive marked by sexual thoughts, fantasies, and a conscious urge to engage in sexual activity. Thus, sexual desire may exist equally in both sexes when different definitions are applied.
