在很多医学论著中,研究者都留意到女性的性禀赋——姑且把它作为一种能力评价——似乎比男性更倾向于感官的感受。

sexual aptitude
Explanation:

We may thus, perhaps, understand why it is that hysteria and anæmia are often combined, and why they are both most frequently found in adolescent young women who have yet had no sexual experiences. Chlorosis is a physical phenomenon; hysteria, largely a psychic phenomenon; yet, both alike may, to some extent at least, be regarded as sexual aptitude showing itself in extreme and pathological forms.

And within this last group it will differ in her who remained celibate without emotional struggle (because of the frigidity of her temperament or through the voluntary abstinence of a religious devotee) from the crisis in another who remained so by necessity because of the social conditions which keep so many women of perfect sexual aptitude in an enforced spinsterhood.”
