37 - Time to Get Aroused?

One bit of sex advice I have seen floating around the internet, particularly on Instagram, is that it takes cisgender women 20 minutes to get fully aroused. This is presented as a contrast to cisgender men, who are, I guess, faster than that? I never see any man-stats presented, but it is implied that men need to slow down to ensure their female partner gets to her fully aroused state. In this episode, I dive into the research to see how long it takes to get aroused. I realize the questions doesn't really make sense, and I give some steamy sex tips of my own. Arousal!
