The Perversion of the Female Mind

The perversity of the male mind is a well-established and thoroughly explored concept in media and within the confides of interpersonal relations. However, despite traditional consensus, do women have the same perversity? The conceptualized idea of the male sex drive can also apply to women when considering that the male and female brain don't have massive differences. The major difference between the sexes, besides the obvious biological factors, is hormones. The libido of both men and women are predetermined by the levels of testosterone in each, usually the male producing much more than the female, whose primary hormone is estrogen. When levels of estrogen drop, especially during menopause, the ratio of the two hormones balance out causing an increase in sex drive.

The psyche of humans is molded by the socialization of an individual in society. You can take the individual out of society, but you can't remove the socialization from the individual. In other words it is hard to separate the individual thought process from the social aspect of thinking. From a young age men and women are socialized differently, chiefly in the regard to sex and things of sexual nature. Women with such thoughts keep them to themselves and men have the tendency to be more open. A man to express these things in high school is praised with such labels as ‘stud' and ‘player' while a women of the same virtues is a slew of uncouth words. The social norms of society are relative to the time, situation, and observer and the current generation is growing up around things, just thirty years ago, would be vaguer. Even though young girls are brought up as princesses and good girls they are bombarded by conflicting images and sexualizing of younger and younger girls. With the current social trends sex and perversion has become less of a taboo and has shaped both sexes equally making them more incline to perverse ideology.

Women do in fact have their perversion, but of a different kind. Biologically they are more articulate, using upwards of three times as many words. No wonder women experience arousal verbally, which is contrary to how men experience it. So it makes sense that romance novels are a billion dollar industry. The romance novels themselves might be an excellent example of perversion as they are often called smut and considered to be pornography for women.

As time progresses sex will increase its presence in society as a norm and the females mind's perversion will further solidify itself with in its recesses.
