Sea food like mentioned above because of the level of zinc..which I forgot did what ?? (apart that is a healthy mineral to have) but.......I would guess you would have to eat a huge quantity of it !!!\n\nAnd oysters.........because.......of sexual connections with it as well.....\n\nI would say..yeah.....you eat healthily, you feel better, and the sexual appetite increases anyway.....all the junk food put you to sleep :-))\n\nHeavy food keeps you from being alert mentally and physically and sap your energy....\n\nI have heard people from Indian etc praising such and such thing...some spices..(Do not try dragon fly..never did myself..it is a poison!)........up to you to look it up and decide..\n\n--------------------------\n\nBut as somebody said (forgot who)....a glass of wine..and everybody will look beautiful to you :-)...mornings after will be a different story LOL !\n\n;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;\n\nForget about food...the BRAIN, the brain !!! Using it, people using it, being used by it etc etc...

Female anatomy and hormones work very differently from male anatomy and hormones...I'm sure you've probably figured this out by now.  It's really more of an evolutionary force than anything else.  To put it bluntly, men need to spread their seed and the male brain is programmed to desire sex as often as possible to procreate.  If a man does not have sex or does not msturbate after a few days...we ejaculate in our sleep.  That's how strong our programming is.  So yes, having the ability to be turned on quickly is normal for a man.\n\nNow for a women, their sexual appetite is more closely tied to their emotional state above all else.  You've obviously clued onto this since you know what you have to say and do to get to and past foreplay.  Again, a women's programming is directly related to evolution as well.  They can't just strip off their close and have sex like men.  Most need to know that a relationship may be possible.  They need to hear kind words and things that make them feel secure according to their emotional state. They're looking for a nurturing man than could suitably care for their offspring.  And they need to be emotionally free of their minds to function well sexually.  That's why most women don't enjoy sex after a certain age...then tend to worry too much about everything, whereas men....anytime...anyplace...anywhere will do.\n\nAlso, a lot of women are really out of shape these days and that definitely affects their sex drive among other things.\n\nMy best advice to you is to not deceive them.  If you can't be honest, you'll never build a strong foundation for a relationship.  Enjoy yourself when your young, but as you age the "wine-dine-bang-run" technique should be quickly abolished for success in your relationships\n\nHere's a great link for more info.\nhttp://preventdisease.com/yourhealth/sexualhealth/sexualhealth.html

sex appetite does not rely on gender differences. Personality and childhood enviroment in wich one grows play the most important role. Some biological features influence sex appetite too.

"Smell & Taste Good For Her"  from:\nhttp://ca.askmen.com/love/love_tip_100/100b_love_tip.html\n\nAlthough there is no scientific evidence to prove any of the following claims that are believed to improve the taste of your semen, they are nevertheless widely believed among drinkers and squirters alike.\nBelieve it or not, many of the things that affect body odor are believed to affect the taste of semen as well. For instance, alcohol and coffee are believed to give semen a bitter, pungent taste. \n\nThere are many ingredients composing semen, and its makeup is the same from man to man. Here are a few of the constituent elements: vitamin C, calcium, chlorine, cholesterol, citric acid, creatine, fructose, lactic acid, magnesium, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, vitamin B12, and zinc. \n\nSo what effect will all this have on her waistline? Well, not much of an effect at all. The caloric content of the average ejaculate is estimated to be approximately 5 to 25 calories -- hardly the most fattening meal. \n\nAs well, cigarettes, garlic, onions, broccoli, and cauliflower are also believed to alter the taste of your love juice. The cigarettes need no explanation; you're inhaling fire, let's get real. But because the aforementioned foods tend to have a distinct odor, it's believed that they will affect the way you taste.\n\nIf you're dehydrated, pig out on spicy foods or are taking medication, these factors may also contribute to an uninviting flavor. So maybe you should take it easy on Mexican delights and start downing water like there's no tomorrow.\n\nWhat To Eat/Drink: \nPlums \nOranges \nLemons \nLimes \nCilantro \nSpearmint \nGrapefruit \nGreen tea \nBeer \nPineapple \nMangoes \nChamomile tea \n\nWhat To Avoid: \nBroccoli \nBrussels Sprouts \nSpices \nCoffee \nChocolate \nCigarettes \nAsparagus \nChemically processed liquor \nOnions \nGarlic \nDairy Products \nRed meat \n\nConsidering most guys are avid meat eaters, keep in mind that red meat apparently makes semen taste more acidic. Hmm, nothing like the taste of acid to end off a wonderful night of sexual fun.\nTo sweeten up your inner load, drink plenty of pineapple juice, and eat bananas and papaya. Their sweetness results in yours. And of course, lest we forget that parsley can do wonders for men worldwide -- it eliminates body odor, freshens breath and improves the taste of seminal fluid. \n\nFruits like kiwi, watermelon, celery, and pineapple are all said to make semen taste lighter. Beer and coffee are believed to have something of an opposite effect, and could leave her with a bitter taste in the mouth. Alkaline-based foods like meat and fish produce a buttery taste, while acidic fruits (cranberries, blueberries and plums) produce a pleasant, sugary flavor. Most liqueurs will do the same, while dairy products can make for a foul taste because of their high bacterial putrefaction levels. \n\nAlways keep in mind that everyone has a distinct taste and even if you do all these things, she might still find the taste of your fluid repulsive. But if she's more than willing and able to sacrifice for the greater good, then have her down a mint before she makes her way down south.\nThe mint will serve to hinder the flavor of your semen and will simultaneously provide you with indescribable sensations.

I think there are certain frangrances that are more attractive then others to human sense. But as far as which frangrances it all depends on the body chemistry of the individual. I don't think it can cause sexuality.. but I think it influences another persons perception of what they find sexual. I believe it acts along the same lines as animal pheramones. Your typically drawn to something that pleases one of your senses.

9, only because I do like and enjoy it in my life immensely, but I don't "gotta have it." Also, it truly matters, to me, what sexual experiences you have to either rate it a 1 or 10, so the question is pretty subjective and open to bias. \n\nAlso, my appetite has increased over the years only because I've gotten more comfortable with my body, pleasing my partner, and enjoying it than when I first started.

It is a good idea to eat protein containing large amounts of arginine, such as chicken or other meats, as well as foods containing vitamin E, zinc, vitamin B6, and vitamin C.  Note however that if you have erectile dysfunction, your diet has only suble effects on this condition and will not reverse it fully unless you had a severe defficiency of some of these nutrients.

The reputed aphrodisiac qualities of chocolate are most often associated with the simple sensual pleasure of its consumption. More recently, suggestion has been made that serotonin and other chemicals found in chocolate, most notably phenethylamine, can act as mild sexual stimulants.

No! There's never too much sex for a women. Actually sex can be good for them as well, and here's the list:\n\n Improved sense of smell: After sex, production of the hormone prolactin surges. This in turn causes stem cells in the brain to develop new neurons in the brain's olfactory bulb, its smell center.\n\n- Reduced risk of heart disease: In a 2001 follow-on to the Queens University study mentioned above, researchers focused on cardiovascular health. Their finding? That by having sex three or more times a week, men reduced their risk of heart attack or stroke by half. In reporting these results, the co-author of the study, Shah Ebrahim, Ph.D., displayed the well-loved British gift for understatement: "The relationship found between frequency of sexual intercourse and mortality is of considerable public interest."\n\n- Weight loss, overall fitness: Sex, if nothing else, is exercise. A vigorous bout burns some 200 calories--about the same as running 15 minutes on a treadmill or playing a spirited game of squash. The pulse rate, in a person aroused, rises from about 70 beats per minute to 150, the same as that of an athlete putting forth maximum effort. British researchers have determined that the equivalent of six Big Macs can be worked off by having sex three times a week for a year. Muscular contractions during intercourse work the pelvis, thighs, buttocks, arms, neck and thorax. Sex also boosts production of testosterone, which leads to stronger bones and muscles. Men's Health magazine has gone so far as to call the bed the single greatest piece of exercise equipment ever invented.\n\n- Reduced depression: Such was the implication of a 2002 study of 293 women. American psychologist Gordon Gallup reported that sexually active participants whose male partners did not use condoms were less subject to depression than those whose partners did. One theory of causality: Prostoglandin, a hormone found only in semen, may be absorbed in the female genital tract, thus modulating female hormones.\n\n- Pain-relief: Immediately before orgasm, levels of the hormone oxytocin surge to five times their normal level. This in turn releases endorphins, which alleviate the pain of everything from headache to arthritis to even migraine. In women, sex also prompts production of estrogen, which can reduce the pain of PMS.\n\n- Less-frequent colds and flu: Wilkes University in Pennsylvania says individuals who have sex once or twice a week show 30% higher levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A, which is known to boost the immune system.\n\n- Better bladder control: Heard of Kegel exercises? You do them, whether you know it or not, every time you stem your flow of urine. The same set of muscles is worked during sex.\n\n- Better teeth: Seminal plasma contains zinc, calcium and other minerals shown to retard tooth decay. Since this is a family Web site, we will omit discussion of the mineral delivery system. Suffice it to say that it could be a far richer, more complex and more satisfying experience than squeezing a tube of Crest--even Tartar Control Crest. Researchers have noted, parenthetically, that sexual etiquette usually demands the brushing of one's teeth before and/or after intimacy, which, by itself, would help promote better oral hygiene.\n\n- A happier prostate? Some urologists believe they see a relationship between infrequency of ejaculation and cancer of the prostate. The causal argument goes like this: To produce seminal fluid, the prostate and the seminal vesicles take such substances from the blood as zinc, citric acid and potassium, then concentrate them up to 600 times. Any carcinogens present in the blood likewise would be concentrated. Rather than have concentrated carcinogens hanging around causing trouble, it's better to evict them. Regular old sex could do the job. But if the flushing of the prostate were your only objective, masturbation might be a better way to go, especially for the n

I think we do.  For me, whenever something becomes an obsession or is done excessively, it is not good, even though that thing is orginally a good thing.  Like eating, we all have to eat to keep ourselves going.  A sensible thing is to eat the right amount of the right food at the right time.  If we eat too much, eat a lot of junk or if we eat at the wrong time (for example, eat when we're not hungry), we are violating our body and the result is that we get sick and feel really awful.  If we are obsessed with food, we have little time for anything else and that's not what life is meant to be.  Sex is like this.  It's a basic human need which has to be satisfied but it is not something we need all the time and do with just anybody.  The culture in which we live nowadays seems to preach otherwise, in the same way as it sells us highly processed junk food that doesn't nourish our body or promote health.  Sex, in the context of a loving, caring and committed relationship, is the highest form of human connection and not only does it satisfy the body but it also nourishes the soul, bringing us closer to our other half.  Junk sex, like junk food, that is sex consumed indiscriminately, has quite the opposite effect on us.  It is like drinking cola to quench your thirst or eating food high in MSG to satisfy your hunger.  The more you consume junk drink/food, the thirstier or hungrier you feel and the sicker you get.  Likewise, the more junk sex people have, the more emotionally depleted\nthey feel and the result of long term obsession with junk sex can leave people feel more and more dissatisfied, unfulfilled and degraded to the point where they can't feel their own value.  I always think that human society has evolved to the stage where we shouldn't be dominated by our animal instincts but the sex-obsessed culture of today's world seems to point to the opposite direction.  I have thought that in this world, where human rights are valued, our young women should be loved, treasured and protected and not used by men or exploited commercially.  In today's sex-obsessed culture, women's dignity and respectability doesn't seem to matter anymore.   This I think is detrimental to men/women relationships.  When a generation of young men grows up to believe that women are sex object, what hope is there for them to respect women?  What hope is there for a stable relationship where men won't treat women as something they could use for pleasure?  What hope is there for young women to have high self esteem and feel loved and valued?   I think junk sex is really a kind of self-harm.  If we value ourselves and fellow human beings, we don't allow ourselves to use others or be used, just for bodily pleasure, just as we don't contaminate our bodies with junk food that harm our health.

Yes.  Your body uses slightly different hormones for sex as it does for building muscle.  Having sex will shift the hormones away from those that build muscle to those that make babies.

Yeah it can for some woman, it can also increase the sex drive of some woman. I guess it just all depends on the person and how your body reacts to it.

Actually sexual appetite is caused by the increased activity of hormone testosterone in males and andosterone in females. Now with the release of either of the hormone, the brain recieves stimuli that guide our thoughts to the sexual activities and thus leading guys to "gals". The effect of the female sex hormone is also there but females have the ability to keep it off their brains..
