Hardy's appetitional theory of sexuality is examined critically and compared with Freud's libidinal drive theory. It is maintained that sexuality is both a drive and an appetite and that Freud's theory is more complete than Hardy's because it deals with both of these aspects. Specific comparisons are drawn in relation to the periodicity of women's desire, the pleasure of genital stimulation, and the “unpleasure” in arousal short of orgasm. Finally, it is argued that Hardy has inappropriately intruded moral considerations into scientific theory
