How can we still be heterosexual?

In 2006, in his cult work King Kong Theory, Virginie Despentes noted the limits of heterosexuality: “Men love men. They explain to us how much they love women, but we all know that They bobe us. They love each other, between them (…). By dint of hearing them complaining that women do not fuck enough, do not like sex as it should, never understand anything, we cannot s’ prevent us from wondering: what are they waiting for to bother? Go ahead. If it can make you more smiling, it’s that it’s good. “

Sixteen years later, literary news addresses the question of a possible dead end of gender relationships. Two trials have recently been their purpose: getting out of heterosexuality, Juliet Drouar (Binge Audio, 2021), and how to become a lesbian in ten stages, from Louise Morel (out of reach, 226 pages, 12 euros).

If you don’t mind, I will voluntarily leave aside the societal aspects related to homosexuality in this column – and in particular LGBTPHOBI – to focus only on sexual satisfaction. As you will see, the cantors of homosexual fullness have solid arguments.

Let’s start with orgasm: if gay and heterosexual men reach almost the same frequency, this is not the case for lesbian women (who arrive at 86 % of time) and heterosexual (66 % of time, according to the archives of sex behaviour, 2018 ). An identical differential is observed in French surveys: 19 % of hetero women say they have “often” difficult to reach orgasm, but 0 % of lesbians. 99 % of the latter find their current partner very attentive to their pleasure, against 88 % of hetero … which remains, all the same, a good score (source: Ifop/Online Séduction, 2019 ). ). ). ). /p>
