There are some women who most certainly don't like sex and who use it to get committment from men. (I'd say they are a rather small minority these days.) There are other women who like sex and use it to get commitment from men! ;-) More than a few of those. And there are some women who just like sex, period, regardless of the commitment issue.

My grandmother was definitely one of those who, in her youth, did not like sex one bit, but used it to get a husband. She explained that to my mother one time when reminiscing about her younger days. The way she put it was, "Well, that's something you have to do to keep a man happy, but of course there's nothing enjoyable about it. You just wait till he's finished." My mother was a bit astonished.

Maybe women just don't like having sex with Stephen Fry! ;-D If so, he has drawn an incorrect conclusion as to what's really going on out there. (Yes, I know he's gay...which is far better than being morose, isn't it?....)

As for the go-go girl phenomenon, I always thought it was really a silly routine to add to almost any song and could only serve as a pointless distraction from the song itself, but I was a folkie! Folkies took their songs very seriously! ;-D In retrospect, I don't find anything objectionable about go-go girl routines, although they're far better suited to rock or pop than they are to folk material....or classical...depends on the style of music that's being played.

I thought the Ike and Tina Turner Revue, for instance, was marvelous with those long-legged gals dancing around, because it suited the music to a "T".
