OPINION: Why do our heads explode when a woman treats sex in the same way as many men do? Why does the media get into an ecstatic froth?

But it is remarkable that we judge women who have had many sexual partners so differently. There is no female equivalent for words such as “stud” or “lady’s man” or “Casanova”. Just like there is no male equivalent for a word like “slut”.

This example demonstrates that our society is, to some extent, held together by women’s sexual urges being managed by a strict regime of shame and self-control.
