The 237 reasons women have sex

******

More on sex here and here.

*****

According to psychologists Cindy Meston and David Buss, women have 237 reasons for having sex. They figured this out by interviewing 1,006 women around the world and wrote about their findings in a book called Why Women Have Sex.  

Why has no one asked women this question before? Meston says, "People just assumed the answer was obvious, to feel good. Nobody has really talked about how women can use sex for all sorts of resources." Their main reason was "orgasm, orgasm, orgasm." 

Read about their book and the study here. There's no indication if Meston and Buss will be asking  men the same question and writing a book. It would probably be too short to publish...

Did you write the last paragraph? I'm feeling a bit insecure about the proximity of "sex," "men," and "short."

Maybe it's just me.

Told my wife about this book and your blog post. Her take was that there's a market for a book about why women have sex (I'd kind of like to know), but no market for a book about why men have sex. Doh. I'm feeling a little outsmarted tonight. Enjoying your blog. --Brian

It's too early in the morning to be laughing so hard. Or should I say laughing so much?

Yours might be too short, but mine is plenty long.

Really, this kind of post was just asking for it.

Recent study on single women and mate poaching showed 90% preferred an attached male. http://tiny.cc/ZM2Wf
