Men's brains are configured very differently when it comes to a
response to sex. There are 3 areas to know about - which are over
twice the capacity of the female:


The Medial Pre-optic Area (MPOA): Is an area of the Hypothalamus
that regulates various physiological and behavioural processes.
The MPOA is packed with twice as many neurones and density. Since
it has a larger capacity in males, this is why males tend to be
more visually stimulated and do more 'objectification'.


The Third Interstitial nucleus of the Anterior Hypothalamus (INAH
3) - the seat of human sexuality - also contains twice as many
neurones in males and occupies a greater volume than females,
regardless of age.


The Amygdala is also twice as big in males. It is the brain's
command and control area. (I call it the 'Smoke alarm in the
kitchen which goes off when you burn toast'); the Amygdala
detects loss of homeostasis and triggers a 'Fight/Fight/Freeze'
protective response in the Limbic brain.


All of these processes are reactive to testosterone. Remember
that Testosterone is (on average) 20 times more in males than in
females. 


Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) binds and carries/transports
sex hormones like Oestrogen, Testosterone and Androgens to the
organs where they are needed. Therefore regulating the proportion
of sex hormones that are available to the body. Different events
(like a disease process) can cause SHBG levels to rise and become
too high or too low. Women have 13 times more SHBG than men.


Essentially, a mismatch between males and females (in the working
of the brain) during sex. Listen to the rest of the audio to
piece together how this all impacts the personality of the sexes
during hook ups and arousal.
