Most women want a man, not sex - D.H. Lawrence

Most women want a man
Not sex
They bargain sex for men

The old-fashioned
Just lies there. Sex is
No pleasure to her

The sly one pretends
Passions and pleasures -
All cockaloopy, all made up

Some love everything -
Feelings and cuddlings
But they turn you away
When you want to mount them

Then the hard sort, the devil
Like my wife, brings off all
They’re the bossy type

Then the cold sort, dead
All dead inside
And she very well knows it

Finally the Lesbian
Puts you out before you come
And writhes her loins against your thighs

Some men may like
One of these types
But I hate all these

*****
This is my rendering of a prose passage
in Lady Chatterley’s Lover of D.H. Lawrence
