We are pretty much about equal, I'd say. There are still times when one of us is in the mood and the other isn't, but not to a point where it's a problem.
Who has the Larger Sex Drive in your Relationship? You or your Partner?

I'd say it's about equal. We're still in our young crazy horny years though, so it could change later down the line.

I'm not currently in a relationship, but I am gray a and therefore my boyfriends have always had much higher sex drives than I. None of them have ever been the least bit understanding, to say the least.

I have a larger sex drive than my wife.
I could do it everyday, her more like once a week. So we compromise on 2 to 3 times.

I'm in the same situation as you, including the insecurities.. I want it 3+ times a day, and my partner starts to act like it's a chore to him. I've even been turned down several times. And when we do have sex, he is very "gentle" and snuggly and into the "making love" style of things. Sometimes I just wish he would be rough and animalistic so I would feel DESIRED. :/

I've talked to some of my friends, and they also seem to have the higher sex drive in their heterosexual relationships.
Which leads me to wonder, are guys just more open about their sexual desires because society can accept them as sexual beings, while women have to downplay how often we want sex because we have to either fit the trope of either virgin or prostitute (prude or whore)?
I'm sorry to ignore homosexual relationships that are between two women, or two men together. But the purpose of my poll really is to see the discrepencies between how gender affects sex drive, not sexual orientation. I also relaize I'm ignoring a plethora of types of relationships, I'm not doing it to be dismissive or offensive. less

He does. I think it has a lot to do with stress and mental inhibition on my part.

I have always had a larger sex drive than my wife. I would be lying if I said it has not been any issue for us. Still, I know it could be a lot worse, so I try to deal with it the best I can.

I have a much higher drive then my boyfriend. He sometimes sees me as being Nympho. Toys are great.
01/11/2012
about the same

We're pretty equal. I think it's a slut-shaming myth that women have lower sex drives.
01/17/2012
I have the higher sex drive but he is quickly catching up
01/18/2012
I definitely have the higher sex drive in our relationship, my boyfriend blames it on some medications he is currently taking. Unfortunately we fight very often about our sex life, or lack of a sex life.
01/19/2012
I have a much higher sex drive. That's okay though. Sex toys help
01/19/2012
I don't know- right now I’d say my bf. But usually I’d say it's me. I've been taking meds lately that have decreased my sex drive sadly! Usually I’m a horn dog though lol!

I personally seem to want sex more frequently then my boyfriend and I usually also want to go longer, but now I have found a few reasons why I believe this is the case.
1. College, he is always trying to make sure he keeps his 4.0 in college, so it keeps him stressed out.
STRESS= Sex killer, especially in men(for most cases)
2. Worry, he is worried about how his family would feel about us having sex, so we don't as often when around his house.
---------------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- ---------
Also I believe you are right(or what you said) about the "whore" "slut" thing, men are praised for the more women they get where as women are reffered to as sluts if they have slept with more then a couple partners, or want sex a lot, so we tend to hide our needs and desires more then men.

im pretty glad im not the only one...

With the exception of one particularly feisty redhead, I have always been the one with the higher sex drive (I'm a bi female). Luckily my partners have almost always been comfortable with me taking care of my own needs, but it's been an issue with two of my exes that our drives were way out of sync (one man, one woman).
02/09/2012
I guess I'm lucky because we both have a strong and active sex drive, but I'm more open and flirtatious about mine
02/09/2012
My man and I have about the same sex drive.

I've had a higher sex drive than most of my partners. Definitely more so than the one I am currently with. My ex and I were about equal.
02/26/2012
I have the higher sex drive in our relationship. On nights when he doesn't want sex I grab my vibrator by my bed.

My sex drive is way higher than his it seems which leads me to feeling insecure and such and things. Its a pain in the butt trying to get sex most of the time so I have given up trying unless he initiates it.
03/01/2012
i do fo sho
03/01/2012
As the female, I definitely have a higher sex drive. He of course seems to only want to do it when he comes to bed at 2am and I'm already asleep, at which point, I'm not really into it.
03/01/2012
It is soooooo freaking frustrating to be the one with the higher sex drive.
