SEX: That three-letter word that can make you both blush and say "aahhh" is more than a mixing and mingling of genes or a simple act of fun, love or lust. It's been around since ... , oh yeah, nearly the beginning of time and it's still very much in fashion (well for most of us anyway).
Scientists, doctors, enthusiasts and crazy folk like us have delved into understanding and even improving the act and especially the outcomes. Who's willing to 'fess up to reading the Karma Sutra, or even just looking at the pictures? Who me??
It really can be exhausting: We read; we watch; we talk; we do; we don't; we can; we can't; we try; we fail; we cry; we laugh; we giggle; we wiggle and then ...... oh yeh, and then we blog :-)
Sometimes we share what we know and learn and other times, we keep it to ourselves. I've said it before, I'm a caring and sharing sort of girl so I'd like to share some 'interesting' facts about sex that I picked up from a reliable (yeh, right ...) source earlier today.
82% of women worry less about penis size than men (really?). This compares with only 55% of men who are satisfied with their penis size.
The majority of women who reported having frequent orgasms were more likely to say they prefer sex with men with larger penises. However, 62% of these women say that men with smaller penises often have more attractive personalities and therefore make more desirable lovers. See, we're not all superficial.
12% of women admitted to using their smartphones during sex. Whilst 83% of men admit to taking theirs to the toilet. Interestingly, the majority of these men were from Wales compared to a small percentage from the Midlands. Never ask a guy from Merthyr Tydfil to lend you his phone ... URGH!
Sleep deprived men are more likely to wrongly believe that women want to have sex with them. How many of you guy's work nightshift?
People who are into kinkier sex may be psychologically healthier. Apparently, those from Scotland are more likely to be into 'kinky sex' than most other parts of the UK.
Twelve percent of adults have had sex at work. Really? Not where I work, believe me!
According to a study, people who have sex once or twice a week have their immune systems boosted .... Atishoooo!
Think twice before swallowing if you're on a diet. There are five calories in a teaspoon of semen. The good news is, having sex burns as many calories as running 5 miles. Yes, I know some guys are now wondering how how the hell they can run 5 miles in 60 seconds ;-)
A woman's butt sticks out 25 percent more when she is wearing high heels. Damn that Jimmy Choo!
A blowjob is the number one sexual act. Word of warning girls (and guys), given the fact that men can ejaculate at 27mph, get those safety goggles on.
From an evolutionary standpoint: women are louder in bed to attract other males; men become more aroused when they think a woman has had sex recently.
One analysis suggests that women from the south of the country are more reserved in bed and prefer not to make any noise.
A single sperm contains 37.5 MB of DNA information. One ejaculation represents a data transfer of 15,875 GB, equivalent to the combined capacity of 62 MacBook Pro laptops. I'm left wondering how many guys regularly jiz over their keyboards ...
Male fruitflies rejected by females drink significantly more alcohol than those that have had a successful encounter. Fruit flies/humans ... any similarities?
Seven Viagra tablets are sold every second ... tee hee hee. More Viagra is sold in Winter months than other times of the year.
When sperm is left to dry on the skin leaves behind protein which can help to reduce wrinkles. Haha, while this may be an excellent anti-aging treatment, the obvious downside is that you have to walk around with sperm on your face ... Actually, this may not be so bad :-)
Studies have shown that men who looked at porn of two men and one woman produced more sperm than those who looked at just women. See, guys are just so competitive.
46% of women would give up having sex for two weeks rather than logging off the Internet for the same amount of time. This compares to just 18% of men. Blimey!!
Sex is 10 times more effective than Valium. Anyone fancy getting lovestoned?
That's the end of my list.
Remember, sex isn't the answer: Yes is the answer; sex is the question.

I find it hard to believe you are a 'peak-too-sooner' and headed for a steady decline. The world just isn't ready for that FA. |

Slightly boring initial response, admittedly, but how did you manage to sneak that succinct blog title past the blog police? Every time I try to do something similar, I'm told it has to be more than 20 characters :-) (Also, as I see many men with bare torsos for their main profile pics, I'm wondering why I was singled out and ordered to change mine to something innocuous..... yes I'm getting paranoid :-) |

Back to topic - where did you dig up all this info and what are the sources? (sorry it's the scientist in me coming out.... :-) |

Love the blog, and the comments huge smile on my face now, keep up the great work |
|
1:33 am Saturday, 28th September, 2013
Well now Luv2, your statistics made very interesting reading. My eyes were drawn especially to the juicy snippet that those from Scotland are more likely to be into kinky sex than most other parts of the UK. This Scot would be mighty interested to learn where the rest of his fellow kinksters are hiding. Wherever it is, it's not this website. There appear to be very few Scots here, the majority of "hubbers" being from England. |
|

Skebbie, I did wonder about the title. I had to slip in an extra couple of letters and spaces but still didn't manage 21. Perhaps admin like reading my blogs :-)

Of course I'm looking in the right place. On re-reading my post, I can see the wording should have been tighter. There are Scots on the site for sure. I should have said there are very few Scots in proportion to the overwhelming majority of members from England: and that I stand by. |
|
11:14 am Saturday, 28th September, 2013
BadBoy, "... There are few Scots in proportion to the overwhelming majority of members from England" |

Just remember, there are lies, damned lies and statistics. But the heels thing is true. There was this girl at work a few years ago. Flat shoes or pumps, no bottom. Heels, damn, her bum made Miley Cyrus twerking look tame. |

FA - behave yourself, or I shall let Mel Gibson who, as we all know, is Scotland's greatest warrior, loose on you. |

I'm sure FA meant no offence (mwhahahah x) |

As my DNA straddles the EnglandScots border, I'm sitting this one out on the fence. It used to be referred to as "The Debatable Land", but people then seemed to spend more time simply snatching it than debating it. I have good ancestral credentials in rape and pillage, and my forebears were renowned for their hard riding and long lances. |
|

"my forebears were renowned for their hard riding and long lances." Ah, I wonder of it is in your jeans ... (ahem oops) I mean, genes. |

Once again Luv2 strikes gold! I shall dine out on those statistics. (although they may have more calories than sperm) |

FOM, Throbbin what about:

Depends on whether you class masturbation as sex. If so then I'd say it was higher than that judging by the state of some toilets I've been in. |
|
4:07 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
"women from the south of the country are more reserved in bed and prefer not to make any noise" interesting....if there are any woman from the south who wish to prove this theory wrong I am willing to sacrifice my body in the name of science.... |
|
4:51 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
I'm one of the 88%, but would seriously like to convert :) There's something sexy about the thought of two adults teasing each other in the workplace and getting so turned on they have to find somewhere secluded to fulfil their lust. Chances are slim now that I own my own company :( |
|
5:11 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
Why the hell did it censor eighty eight percent? lol |
|
5:15 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
I have it on good authority that owning your own company has certain advantages in this area FOM. Take, for example, the recruitment of a sexy young secretary. How easy would it be for a mature, professional guy to exercise his ego by talking his way into her pants when the rest of the staff have gone home? |
|
5:20 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
Quite easy, I take it you agree Luv2? |
|
5:29 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
That's too easy Luv2. And young secretaries, in my experience, arent the greatest fucks. You forget my icequeen inclinations ;) |
|
5:36 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
Too fucking easy (pardon the French).
|
|
5:44 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
I kinda sense that. Which is what interests me about them. Knowing that the frosty exterior is not the true Luv2 ;) |
|
5:48 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
That's why I keep chatting to you. To learn more ;) Although there might be one or two other reasons too lol. |

On reflection FA, I was Mrs Available wife; horny and waiting, but certainly not low-hanging ;-)
|

6:10 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
Horny, waiting wife. What the hell was wrong with your man? |
|
6:17 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
Sure FA, but on your "take the low hanging fruit" principle, why didn't SucU's man do the business? |
|
6:20 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013
I know, I know, I know .... blah blah blah
|

FA - having been a senior partner, I know exactly what was meant by not aiming for low-hangng fruit. However, as revenge for your remarks about the Scots (I am man enough and human enough to admit to a petty streak) I am not going to tell you. |
|
6:53 pm Sunday, 29th September, 2013

FA: Referring back to your "low-hanging fruit" analogy, how would you class "windfalls" and how would you deal with them ? |

12:08 pm Tuesday, 1st October, 2013
Wilf - you don't have to be a marketing guru to get paid to spout "utter crap" - just go into politics LOL |
