Gender Comparision
Prevailing wisdom in Western nations is that men have significantly higher sex drives than women.
Spontaneous vs reactive sex drives.
Men are driven to ejaculate but this is necessary for prostate health and not directly related to the desire to have sex.
Evidence women will want sex but not initiate with their partners anyway. They'll just go away frustrated. If true it implies that women as a group are over-reliant on their partners to initiate.
The pill reduces female libido. We have a society in which a large proportion of women are inadvertently suppressing their own sex drive.
Menstrual cycle.
Historically women were regarded as having a higher sex drive than men. I think it clearly shows through. All you need to do is look at their mass media. It's sex this and and sex that. Men read about footy, cars and computers.
There's an argument that women evolved to play down their own sex drive in order to convince men that they would not cheat. Until recently paternity was always an open question.
Some research suggests women complain about lack of sex in relationships as much.
Women watch porn as much as men.
The reasons men avoid sex in relationships are are the same reasons women avoid.
MGTOW is, in part, a sex strike. Compare to the many sex strikes threatened by women that do not eventuate.

About 14% of men in the United States have ever used the services of a prostitute and only 1% have done so in the previous 12 months.

Spontaneous vs responsive.
Women being aroused but not informing their partners. This seems self-defeating.
Women not wanting to appear promiscuous to signal to partners that they will not cheat.
It's really about age not gender.
Female sex offenders - especially prison guards.
