say what?

i just started reading this book and while some of the information is fascinating, some of it i have trouble with. first off, i don't love generalizations. i mean, i get why they are made- a majority ends up representing a whole. but sometimes it's just a common misconception that is doing the representing. take, for example, one of the facts quoted on the back of the book:

thoughts about sex enter a woman's brain perhaps once a day, but may enter a man's brain about once every minute.

i can't speak to the male statistic because i'm not a man (if you didn't already know), but i believe many things have to be taken into consideration when contemplating womens' sexual thoughts. first off - which woman's brain? where is she in her life? relationships? menstrual cycle? i guess like most people, my own statistics fluctuate. but sometimes it feels like sex is just the default setting for my brain. like a screen saver on a computer, if my brain is not actively engaged in something else, it just automatically rests is sex-thought mode. not all the time, but lots of the times.

and i'm pretty sure i'm not the only woman to feel that way (or something like that way). the women i've spoken to all laugh at the "perhaps once a day" quote. i don't know.... women, speak up! (men too).
