Horndog
Per wiktionary:
(slang) A person (particularly a man) who is fixated on sex.
Etymology:
From the sexual sense of horn (late 18c. slang expression to have the horn, from which came horny) + dog (“sexually aggressive man”).
'Lecherous' and 'lustful' would work either.

Yes, but those are adjectives. I get the feeling the OP is looking for a noun.

That word is not specific to women, as was requested. In fact, the definition provided says it more often refer to men.

I interpreted it as someone who craves attention from females. I could very well be wrong. That's why I asked the OP to provide more details.
