I'd like to know if some women can give their thoughts on a few questions and observations:
- Is fujo stuff generally representative of female sexuality, or is that some sort of an aberration? if so, what are the main differences?
It's "weird". It's the same type of person who would, in boys, be the weird kid who brings his dakimakura to school. Fujos like it because "two boys are better than one boy" and because they have hangups about normal interactions between men and women (and sometimes for good reason) so they retreat into slashfics and yaoi and shit because it's "safer" than real human interactions.
- I think that a lot of guys mistakenly assume that women are basically gay men in women's bodies, and get disappointed when that turns out not to be the case. I think that this is caused by the fact that most porn that they consume is drawn and written by other men, who necessarily self-insert into the woman characters. This is probably a big reason why tranny porn (no bottom surgery) is exploding in popularity. Would you agree, and have you ran into this or similar problems? Basically: have you run into the roadblock of men being gay.
I do agree with this, and I think it's indicative of a larger issue where men can't see women as women without seeing them as "inferior men" or getting mad at them for not acting like men.
As an example, a lot of men will often say things like "Why can't women say what they mean?" and women will say "Because we have to be indirect or we face harsh and sometimes dangerous consequences from both men and women." and then that guy will go "Well
I would never hurt you! Women are all sneaky bitches!"
But even that accusation of being "sneaky" happens because you're expecting a woman to act like a man, to have been raised like a man, and to live up to the standards that have been expected of you as a man.
- Moving on from the gay porn questions: how does female friendship work? Men, for example, are usually friends based off of compatible talents and sense of purpose towards which they collaborate (whether that be an intellectual, creative, or other pursuit). What do women do together?
How long you get along socially. I can be friends with women with whom I have very little in common so long as we can communicate effectively. Look at the Farms as a perfect example, a lot of the women here have no hobbies in common with me, but we bond over the shared culture of the site. I say "shared culture" by the way, because it's not even about the cows themselves. There are several threads here about people I never knew about before I found them here, but those threads attract the type of posters who I find funny or insightful.
- Would you agree that it's true that men are more world-oriented, whereas women are more person-oriented?
By "world-oriented", I mean that I get the impression that men's interests are generally about topics that are not inherently social: philosophy, engineering, economics, aesthetics (in an abstract sense), the honing of a craft, etc. Sports could be thought of as social, but that's more of the collaborative emergent effort towards producing the "perfect game" of whatever sport it is.
In contrast, it seems like womens' interests are generally more inherently person-based or inherently socially based. I don't mean exclusively, but that seems to be more of the focus. You're less likely to see a woman out in a shack working on some obscure development in occult metallurgy or whatever only to emerge three weeks later with a manifesto that he can share to the other three men on the planet who know what the hell he's talking about.
They aren't really inherent so much as social. You gotta keep in mind things like how women only had their own bank accounts in the US after the 1970s, so there's not really a long history of being able to spend "the family" money on your hobbies. If you want a better idea of how women interact with world-oriented hobbies when they
do have access to those sort of resources, look into the knitting and sewing world and the writing/fanfiction community.
- What is it like when you're not in Estrus, when the tides are low or however that works?
Humans don't have an estrus cycle.
That said, you can conceptualize of women as a few separate "genders"/morphs (not in the LGBTQ sense, but in the side-blotched lizard sense).
To wit, the natural human female morphs are:
- Post-pubescent women
- Menopausal women
And the modern new ones are:
- Hormonal birth control post-pubescent women
- Hormone replacement therapy menopausal women
Each one of these categories has their own differences in hormones that make them distinct from one another, and affects things like their sex drive, energy levels, metabolism, and even the type of men to which they are attracted.
So to bring it back to your actual question, and assuming we're talking about a post-pubescent woman who is
not on any form of hormonal birth control, her sex drive will be dependent on which phase of her cycle she's in. Here's what it looks like (roughly) normally:

It's not visible in this stylized chart, but testosterone also spikes in the middle where you see those bumps in FSH and LH.
I can't seem to find a chart for it, but if you're on hormonal birth control, your estradiol level is "stuck" about where you see it on this chart for day 7 (20-30 pg/ml) but still higher than menopausal women who are NOT on HRT (<15pg/ml).
