… commercial exhibitions of female nudity … are taken by many of the males in the audience to indicate that the exhibiting females are tremendously aroused. Most of the females … were highly disdainful of males who could so easily be misled … (Alfred Kinsey)
It's culturally dependent. Reacting positively to a nude body is linked to desiring potential sex with the nude person. Women were conditioned into believing that wanting sex is shameful, so even when they do encounter male nude images that they like, it's accompanied by guilt: Article Men are Much Harder: Gendered Viewing of Nude Images

Sorry but I disagree. The male brain responds to opportunities for intercourse, as the penetrating male (not the receiver), because it is the reproductive imperative. If men were not aroused and motivated to want intercourse, the human race would be extinct. Women do not respond in the same way because they are always a receiver and therefore are never aroused with a lover. Responsive women orgasm through masturbation alone because they use explicit fantasy for arousal that allows them to identify with the role of the penetrating male. Most women are unresponsive.
You lost me at r"women are not aroused". That's obvious nonsense. Seems like you asked this question to troll behavioral ecologists and anthropologists, and promote a misogynistic agenda - shame on you.
I am talking about erotic arousal - not emotional rewards. What erotic turn-ons (associated with genitals and penetrative sex) cause female arousal? Women talk of love and a relationship. But these have nothing to do with the mental arousal required for orgasm. Please avoid making assertions you cannot back with evidence. I am a sexologist. What qualifications or experience do you have to question my expertise. I have been asking women for over 10 years about orgasm. Most refuse to comment. But please feel free to explain the erotic turn-ons, the anatomy and the stimulation technique involved in female orgasm. Otherwise, please take your ignorance elsewhere. My work is for those with the humility to appreciate that they have something to learn.
