No offense, but I don’t think your experience with crazy women is quite equal to mine. I’ve been with quite a few women, all degrees of sane, and the crazy ones are almost always the best lays. I think another reason they’re often more sexual is because they destroy their nonsexual relationships with friends/family pretty consistently, so they try to get that lost intimacy back through extra sex. They are not able to relate to people well enough to get physical affection or kind words from their regular friends/family, so they resort to having extra sex to get affection and loving words. It becomes a vicious cycle. ---

> [@Boyo\_Jim](#): > > That’s _better_? I can hardly imagine what’s normal for you? **Thank you!** I was having a serious WTF moment; thought I was the only one. ETA - The first part gave me a WTF moment as well. _“…and submissive in bed, and also subscribed (or at least claimed to subscribe) to the belief that it was positively immoral for a woman to reach orgasm before the man did; she felt that if she was in a relationship, keeping her man happy was her God-given duty.”_ The crying and needing to be manhandled and insulted to orgasm part nearly had me falling out of my chair. ---

It becomes a vicious cycle. Great; congratulations. Sure, I’ll go ahead and get all ‘PC’ now. First, it occurs to me that men call women ‘crazy’ and ‘good’ because they happen to find a woman who is actually more comfortable with the mans kinks than they themselves are. ‘How can she be cool with this?? She must be crazy. Awesome!’ And, referring to your hypothesis, it’s a bit sad if you think about it too hard. Or too hard. Read that as you will. ---

And my definition of “crazy” has nothing to do with sexual ability. Living in a cabin in the woods with no running water, and taking lots of hallucinogens for years? Crazy. Being sent to juvie for beating another girl’s head into a sink? Crazy. Being unable to control herself during even mild arguments, calling names, screaming, etc..? Crazy. They were all 3 quite exceptional in bed. They were also my craziest 3 girlfriends ever. In fact, the 3rd one only lasted about 11 days. She had stories of her mom kicking her dad in the balls as a response during an argument. Just..Kick! Not in self-defense. THAT girl did not have many examples of healthy romantic relating to work from, you know? ---

I will throw in another vote for yes, for many of the above mentioned reason. Less inhibited, wanting desperately to please someone in hopes of maintaining the rest of the relationship with the amazing sex. Having dated heavily via internet personal ads, you draw a certain percent of crazy, its amazing for a few weeks, then the crazy starts to break through… ---

It’s hard to make a comparison. Most sane women won’t have sex with you in the bathroom of some skanky East Village bar. ---

> [@drachillix](#): > > Having dated heavily via internet personal ads, you draw a certain percent of crazy, its amazing for a few weeks, then the crazy starts to break through… Wow. Been there, done that. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one. I’ll just say that all my favorite exes were from Yahoo Personals. Sadly, it merged with [match.com](http://match.com), which sucks majorly. OKCupid is where I found my current wife, so I suppose it gets a vote. Eharmony was OK, but had its share of misfires. ---

Seriously, well adjusted intelligent at least basicaly educated women are on the average better in bed than crazies. Part of being crazy involves selfobsession, go figure. ---

> [@Ambivalid](#): > > If she’s also a redhead, then yes. Damn straight! Redheads are a multimedia experience. They bite, scratch, squeeze, pinch, caress, poke, probe, scream, jump, quiver, moan, and climax. And the ones with freckles…I’m still recovering.😉 ---
