Studies have shown that while a man will think about sex every 52 seconds, the subject tends to cross women's minds just once a day.
Sever studies have found that men and women are completely different when it comes to sex. Thoughts about sex enter a woman's brain once every couple of days but enter a man's brain about once every minute.
Doctor says, the areas responsible for sexual thoughts is twice as big as in men than in women, perhaps explaining why men are stereotyped as having sex on the mind.
It's fairly well accepted that men are more focused on sexual intercourse and other types of genital stimulation, says doctor. Women on the other hand are more likely to enjoy 'the precursors to sexual intercourse' and while they also enjoy sex, it's usually better for them if they're feeling connected to their partner.
Other studies have previously claimed to uphold the commonly-held belief that young men have only one thing on their minds - sex.

Pregnant woman who died several times after heart attack gave birth to a baby
A pregnant mother who suffered a severe heart attack and 'died' several times on the operating table gave birth to a son just a week later.
Cheryl Crisp, 35, lost her memory after doctors were forced to induce a coma when she suffered a heart attack at six months' pregnant. She told today how she woke up from a coma and asked her partner why she was in hospital - only to be told that she had suffered a heart attack and had a baby.
Miss Crisp had been shopping with Mr Kemp on December 2 when she passed out in their car before suffering a heart attack. Mr Kemp drove to their GP surgery in Elmers End near their home in Beckenham, South East London. Cheryl was immediately sent into theatre where doctors carried out emergency surgery to remove the clot.
The mum's heart stopped several times on the table as surgeons battled to save her life and that of her unborn son. And because of the unborn baby, doctors could not give her the normal drugs to help her heart.
Doctors were able to remove the clot and Cheryl finally came round from the induced coma six days later.
Cheryl, from Beckenham, Kent had suffered memory loss and had no idea she was pregnant. But She gave birth to Albie who weighed in at just 2lb 7oz.
Albie is still being cared for in the special unit. He has breathing problems but doctors are hoping he will overcome his difficulties.

Sex chip' being developed by scientists
Scientists are developing an electronic "sex chip" that can be implanted into the brain to stimulate pleasure.The chip works by sending tiny shocks from implanted electrodes in the brain.
The implanted chip, which stimulates the brain's pleasure points, has already been used in the United States to treat Parkinson's disease and, in England, is now being studied as a potential treatment for anhedonia, a disorder that blocks pleasurable sensations like those in sex and eating.
"There is evidence that this chip will work," he said. "A few years ago, a scientist implanted such a device into the brain of a woman with a low sex drive and turned her into a very sexually active woman. She didn't like the sudden change, so the wiring in her head was removed."
How to do the wiring remains a hurdle. Aziz says current technology, which requires surgery to connect a wire from a heart pacemaker into the brain, causes bleeding in some patients and is "intrusive and crude"

Alocohol improves men's sexual performance
You may not believe it but alcohol improves, not damages, men's sexual performance, new research shows. Until now, it has been widely believed alcohol consumption could cause erectile dysfunction.
Researchers told, compared to those who have never touched alcohol, many people do benefit from some alcohol, including some people who drink outside the guidelines. After studying the habits of 1580 Australian men, it was found that men who drank within recommended guidelines had 30% fewer problems during sex than teetotalers.
Even binge drinkers had lower rates of erectile dysfunction than those who never drank, although this type of drinking can cause other health problems.
The latest finding should prevent them compounding the problem by feeling "guilty and stressed'' about present or past drinking, doctor said.
