Maybe I'm wrong but I was under the impression that men were visually oriented or aroused, while women were tactilly or verbally aroused, and that the difference does not indicate that men have greater sexual drive than women. Also, what I've seen of evolutionary behaviorism is that men are oriented toward polygamy as a more optimum reproductive strategy while women found monogamy to be more optimum. Just because a man has sex with several partners while a woman has the same amount of sex but with one partner does not mean the man is more driven.
