Women are not passionate¹ enough about sex and concentrate too much on feelings to be able to write raunchy stories, the new owner of Britain's Erotic Review said on Monday.

Determined² not to let the magazine be "drowned in estrogen," she said she would have almost exclusively male writers as they knew a lot more about sex.

"I think women, too many of them, whether it's nature or nurture³ or politics, they're not straightforward⁴ about sex," Kate Copstick told the reporters.

"It's almost like writing about food ... Ladies who lunch, should not really write about food because they don't really love food. They don't salivate at the thought of a great steak."

A former writer for the magazine, she bought the publication in May from its original founder⁵, Jamie Maclean, after it ran into financial difficulties.

She said she loved sex so could write about it in the "scratch and itch⁶ burst of endorphins" style in which it should be written.

The magazine, which critics have described as middle-class porn, re-launches with its 100th issue this month, and includes an article on Japan's "Festival of the Steel Penis."

Copstick, a 48-year-old former journalist and author of several instructional books about sex, said it would have a new style which would include more poetry, comment and picture spreads, as well as the erotic fiction she said most women were so bad at writing.

Her decision to favor male writers has not escaped criticism.

Kathy Lette, a former writer for the review said a third of women were not achieving orgasm which showed men still had a lot to learn, with women well placed to teach them.

英国《情爱评论》杂志的新任老板于本周一称，女性对性不够热情，过度关注感情，因此写不出精彩的情色故事。

她下决心不再让杂志“淹没在女人堆里”，并称今后将几乎只用男性作家，因为他们更了解性。

凯特•乔普斯蒂克在接受记者采访时说：“我觉得不管是先天原因还是后天原因，还是某种利害关系影响，绝大部分女性都不会直接谈性。”

“就像写美食一样，准备午餐的女士其实不该写美食文章，因为她们并不是真的爱吃美食。她们不会因为想到一块美味牛排而流口水。”

凯特之前是该杂志的一名作家，她于五月份从创始人杰米•麦克林那里买下了这份已陷入经济困难的杂志。

她直言自己热衷性爱，因此她的创作方式“简单直白，且能表达本能欲望”，而这类文章原本也该这样写。

批评家们将该杂志描述为中产阶级色情文学。该杂志已于本月开始重新发售，恰逢第100期，其中刊有一篇有关日本“男性钢铁生殖器节日”的文章。

现年48岁的乔普斯蒂克之前是名记者，并撰写过多本性指导书籍。她称该杂志风格将焕然一新，刊登更多的诗歌、评论、大幅图片、以及据她所说大部分女性不擅长的情爱小说。

她重用男性作家这个决定招致了批评。

杂志前作家凯西•莱特称，1/3的女性达不到性高潮，这表明男性还有很多改进之处，而女性正好可以教他们。
