Society tends to depict men as more likely to cheat and as having a larger s*xual appetite. But according to Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, PhD, s*x and relationship expert at Luvbites, "research has found that women get bored of s*x with their partner a lot faster than men."
One such study that corroborates this was published in 2017 in the British Medical Journal. It found that women were twice as likely as men to lose interest in s*x after a year of being together or while living with their partner.
Likewise, a 2012 study published in the Journal of S*x & Marital Therapy concluded that "women's s*xual desire was significantly and negatively predicted by relationship duration," whereas that was not the case for men.
Suwinyattichaiporn says it's important to understand this so partners of women can prioritize "passion, excitement, playfulness, and variety."
