Can you can distinguish the truth from a myth? For years we have had lots of tall stories flying around regarding sex, and believe it or not, some even stick. See if you can tell the difference between them both in the questions below.
Men think of sex every 7 seconds?
The answer is false. Although this may well depend on the individual man at hand, men on average ponder sex 18 times per day, and women 10.
Women are pickier than men?
False - It does not make a difference whether they are male or female: it actually depends on who approaches who. Usually it’s the person that does the approaching who is less selective, whilst studies have shown that the person who is being approached, is more selective.
Men go through the menopause too?
False - Men can actually suffer with symptoms that are similar to the female menopause. This is called the Andropause and is caused by a drop in their testosterone levels however because they do not actually become infertile as a result, it is not classed as a menopause. Men actually produce sperm right into old age however because of lifestyle choices and age, it can actually mean that their sperm get pretty sluggish and are not able to fertilize any eggs.
Men can benefit from kegal exercises?
True - Both men and women can. Male benefits include stronger orgasms, prevent prostate trouble, help with erectile dysfunction, and also premature ejaculation.
Porn actors are 80% less likely to have an STD than other people their same age?
True - Because of strict controls over the actors’ and their health, there is much less of a risk of them to have an STD compared to the average person.
And now you know! Hopefully these interesting sex facts will have filled your quest for knowledge and in the future - should you need to answer any of these questions (we can’t think why you would) - then fear not, you heard them here!
