Another thought about that Newsweek article

When I read quotes like this:

... the myriad of female motivations could come from the flood of mixed messages we hear about how women are supposed to behave: enjoy sex but don't enjoy it too much, withhold it but don't be a prude, save it, flaunt it, be sexy but not a slut. No wonder things get complicated.

I begin to wonder about all those articles about those poor little men who are apparently being reduced to immature fratboys because they are surrounded by all these assertive confident women. If women were really so confident and assertive, the journalists at Newsweek wouldn't feel the need to protect them from criticism.
