Man – an all-round lothario always out for some sexual adventure. Woman – meek, mild to sexual tension, slow to amorous stimuli and subdued in demeanor.
These are the beliefs, according to Dr Esther Wanjohi, a specialist on women and reproductive health at Nairobi Hospital, society has perpetuated for ages.

Reality is not so much different this general understanding on men and women's sexuality.
It is true, that on average, a man could have sex at 9 o'clock in the night and still wake his wife up by mid-night for more romp. At daybreak he could casually clear a cup of tea then nudge his partner to bed a starter pack. Women on the other hand are not as forthright towards sex.
