As for the topic. I believe women want sex as much as men, but their mothers told them some secret to having control when us men get to have sex. Makes it much more interesting for them when it DOES happen, thus giving them a better chance at achieving what both parties hope for.

Women want sex just as much as men however our society doesn't reinforce women for having multiple partners thanks to vestigial beliefs about gender inequality. As a result women don't profess to look for sex as much as men for fear of being labeled promiscuous.

No. Yes.

And I just read your posts about your current bf and him being your first. Give that shit time, you two just need to get comfortable together. If after months of shitty sex and talking about it go find a better penor or someone who knows how to use it and is also not a douche.

This. Are you your boyfriend's first?

No. Sexual compatibility is the basis for a healthy relationship, and you build from there. Not the other way around.

Couldn't agree more. Sex desired at different frequencies always leads to a major issue with resentment and detachment for the party who wants it more often. I was with an ex for 3 years. I'm a once or twice a day guy, she was a 3-4 times a month girl. We loved eachother, but I couldn't 'disconnect' myself to get down to her frequency and she couldn't keep up with mine. Was a miserable 3 years trying unsuccessfully to deal with that.
