11. Here's what has been noted scientifically:

First, women will tend to be attracted to different kinds of men, and dress differently when ovulating. The fact we needed scientific researchers to affirm this should tell you how reluctant people are to consider it.

Women on the pill are attracted to completely different men than ones they are attracted to when not on the pill.

Now, not quite scientifically demonstrated, we all know, or have heard of, the morning-after effect, where you wake up regretting who's in bed with you. You drank because you wanted to get laid, you get laid and you regret it. Part of it might be drinking, but part has to be the fact that you see the person post-coital and you just don't have the need anymore.

This carries over to porn, where guys will lose interest or might even experience being revolted by it almost immediately after orgasm. Many times alcohol is not even involved here.

Now, imagine being in that state all the time.

Personally, I had a roommate who could not see any use for porn. Even though he said he had no objection, he also said other things showing that he had contempt for it. He would not call it scornful. Turned out when he got married, his testosterone level was too low. He had to get patches, and considered having sex with his newly-wed wife a "chore." His word for it.

Now, you might accuse me of having my opinion due solely to that experience, but no, I've cited those other things. I've had other experiences, too that I could cite, including one that was even more personal.
