For female-brained individuals, environmental factors are very important when it comes to sexual contact. Such things as lighting (candles, soft lighting), smells, sensual bedding, music and a “romantic” ambiance are important to erotic feelings and fantasies. Males can have sex anywhere, any time, any place with equal gusto. Sex in the bed, car, or dark room with a stranger are all equivalent.
While environmental concerns are low on the male totem pole of desires, sensual attitudes come very high. How their partner looks, feels, and even smells, is very important. Males prefer their partner young (or with young features), smooth, and “sexy.” Looks and sensual components are much less important to the female brain, with social status and acceptance given greater weight.
