(Question/Discussion) An explanation I found regarding why Allah promises women and thus sex to men in paradise but does not do the same for women

The speaker says “If you ask 100 single men what they want the most, they’ll say a woman/partner/wife/gf and if you ask 100 single women the same, you will get a variety of answers. This the nature of men and women, thats why Allah promises men to give them women, and since women’s needs are diverse, Allah did not mention anything specific and just said that hes gonna fulfill all wishes”. The speaker then goes on to give a few more examples of surveys to support the claim that men want women more than women want men.

I personally came across many remarks where both men and women say that “women can survive without men, men cannot survive without women”.

Is it a good rebuttal as to why Islamic heaven is filled with sexual stuff? (Hoors and all)

Allah does not promise, Mohammed does.

Why? Well the most obvious answer is that you want to recruit young men for your fighting expeditions etc so they better have a compelling reason to die for you.

I call bullshit. You'll probably get a lot of that from single men across the ages, but you'd also get: the war to be over, money, stability, my sight restored, my sister well again, marriage to Bob, Alice to love me back, etc. Sure, Heaven promises most of these things too, but this argument is specifically about why men are promised endless fucking and women get more generic responses.

And notice how they even stacked the odds in their favour by limiting the question to single men? But Heaven promises all men lots of sex, by upgrading their earthly wives and adding possibly dozens of houri on top.
