I think about it independently of how much I'm getting. I can be completely, physically tapped out--which takes some doin'--and I still think about sex. Same with food. Just because I've eaten recently doesn't mean I don't think about food until I'm starting to get hungry again.

You can't just generalize about human sexuality. I know folks who are lucky enough to get way more partner sex than moi, who still find sex their favorite subject. Take this woman, for example. She's one of the leaders of SEX+STL, and she writes frankly about her sexual experiences. Her blog is explicit, and some would find it offensive, and don't go there if you're at work or the public library. http://thebeautifulkind.com/ You might learn something. Actually, you might learn a lot of somethings, but you have been warned.
