A Slight Waste of Time?
You will need these
If you’ve read this blog for a while, you know that we are big fans of research in many subjects. Our goal is to provide information to you that improves your understanding of sexual health and the positive benefits of healthy sexuality. But every once in a while, we stumble across a “duh” moment from the world of science that makes us scratch our heads and ask why they even bothered.
A headline from Health Magazine led to just such an occassion this weekend. The article was titled “When It Comes to Casual Sex, Men Aren’t so Picky.” If ever there was a “duh” moment, there you have it. Apparently researchers spent time and money to prove the most obvious assertion I’ve read in a while.
Here is the crux of the study:
“The 427 men were more likely than the 433 women to agree to casual sex, and the men expressed a greater desire for it than women. The study also found that the men were more likely to go out, go to the apartment, and go to bed with members of the opposite sex in all three categories of attractiveness.
Men needed to be exceptionally attractive to tempt women to consider casual sex, said Dr. Achim Schutzwohl, of the department of psychology at the University of Brunel in the U.K., and colleagues.”
Now that we’ve cleared that up, I know I’ll sleep easier. If you’re going to engage in casual sex, remember to have your condom at the ready. Good grief but those scientists must have been bored…
