Female sex drive

[Tazer691]

Ok I need some info from the females on the forum concerning whats "normal" for a woman. A female freind of mine has been telling me that she has an almost insatiable sex drive and is quite worried that there is something wrong with her. She reckons she is wearing here husband out lol.
According to her she needs to orgasm up to 8 times a day (especially while ovulating) otherwise she can't concentrate on what she's doing. Is this normal? It certainly sounds extreme to me. I guess it must vary greatly from woman to woman. I would be very interested to hear some input from the girls on here as to what their experience is.

Mine is quite high but 8 orgasms a day is ludacris, my body would be worn out after 3 days

Thats kind of what I suspected. I know (from a guys perspective) that if I had satisfy myself 8 times a day in order to think straight, it would drive me stark raving bonkers. . I wonder if there is some medical reason for it? She says she has always had a high sex drive, but that since the birth of her second child its just gone out of control. Another interesting fact she told me is that her cycles are something like 18 days apart!!. So in essence she is ovulating twice a month instead of once. Apparently this is quite rare but not unheard of.

It's kind of weird that you know so much and are so concerned with your friend's cycles and sex drive. Are you just strangely curious about it, or what's your deal?

Gee thanks for the helpfull reply (read heavy sarcasm). Actually if you must know she asked me to find out for her. We talk about all kinds of stuff (I've known her for like 15 years) and sex is just one of many topics we touch on. Seriously, why do you find it "weird" that I am concerned about my friend. Maybe you don't have any close friends of the opposite sex but many people do. Perhaps you should try it sometime....it can give u a unique perspective on things.

I find it kind of odd, too. If she's worried, she should see a doctor.

Gee there sure are alot of prudes on here today. I'm just asking for a female perspective on this issue in the "ask a female" forum. If you don't feel comfortable talking about this topic then by all means don't reply. I'm really not interested in whether you find it weird or not.

I just asked a question. You didn't have to get bitchy.

Oh, sorry I didn't describe my cycles and sex drive.

No, she didn't.

Because you're asking strangers on the internet to discuss some very private female matters on behalf of your "friend" (what, she doesn't have internet?) It's weird.

Damn, why are you getting so mad?

As I said if u don't feel comfortable discussing it thats fine. Im sure there are women out there who don't have a problem. And what exactly do you mean when you say that she didn't ask me. Were you pirivvy to the phone conversation by some chance? All these posts about how you and others find it weird are irrellevant.

Wow. I'm not sure why people are reacting this way.

Every woman has a different sex drive. 8 orgasms a day can be great once in a while, but if it's every day and without it she can't concentrate, I suggest she sees her doctor. I'm not sure there's a "normal." Most women I've discussed it with seem to like sex between 5 times a week and once a month (usually with multiple orgasms). There's a lot of variation, but that kind of drive doesn't leave much room for life, especially with two kids.

Don't be a baby. I don't question YOUR motivation for asking; rather I question HER motivation for discussing this with you. Neither her sex drive nor her menstrual cycle are topics most females would feel comfortable discussing with a casual friend. It makes me wonder what she's trying to gain. So stop being a jackass.

Thanks IndigoGal for a response thats actually on topic. I agree....I would have thought 5 times a week was pretty normal. As you say having to have multiple orgasms every day must incredibly tiring. Apparently her doctor said she was just really really fertile. I suspect ovulating twice a month doesn't help either. Maybe she's just a freak of nature.

Apparently her doctor said she was just really really fertile.

What? Her doctor did NOT say this based on either her sex drive or the frequency of her periods, and if she told you they did, she's lying, which goes goes back to my questioning her motivation for discussing this with you.

Actually she's not a casual friend, she's quite a close friend. I know her pretty well and we have never been embarassed to discuss this type of thing. As I said, having a female friend is great as I get a great perspective on the opposite sex from her. Sorry if you find that weird but hey, I wouldn't change it.
