I guess they'll have to do some more studies similar to this one to get better feedback from the participants. Remember what they said about the people that were worried about what others thought of them. That will be hard to get around. Just my thoughts.
Ladies, don't believe this report for a minute. We male animals cannot go for more than a few minutes without lusting for your shapely legs. Legs legs legs Lilly Lilly legs legs Lilly legs...

Jim, you shouldn't assume to know what women believe. Any guy that is at least halfway-decent looking, has a good mind and wit, and/or, has money, (preferably all 3 for best results), already knows that women love sex just as much or EVEN MORE so than men.
Women just keep this little secret from the guys they'd rather not have sex with. I feel sorry for those guys. ;)
Having entered middle age, weighing in at the gross weight of me and the wife combined at marriage, I can verify the study as accurate. Getting sweaty and working up a heart pounding, near death experience is not as pleasurable anymore as a nice sandwich and a good dump! My farts can sometimes outlast the sex.
If you look at the way men present themselves vs women it's obvious who is more sexually oriented. You never hear of a man being accused of "asking for it" if he has experienced sexual violence, but women often are even when they are dressed normally. I think women think about sex a lot more than men, only in a different way.
I don't think a woman dressing to enhance assets or "dress sexy" is so much a result of a "sexual drive/need" as is that they need affirmation (visual ques, gazes, glimpses from the opposite sex) that they are still attractive and can get laid if/when they choose to. A woman who is attractive or who thinks she has a very strong sexual nature about her will dress sexy as a normal way of life but that doesn't necessarily mean she wants sex every hour of every day.
Sounds a bit crude but that's my take. All women at some point in their lives have a very high sexual drive, but this study was of college age men/women so I find the study to be mostly non-informative.
I think your reasoning may be a bit flawed -- unless you really do believe women who dress in a certain way really are "asking for it." Otherwise, your example suggests to me that women who dress a certain way are NOT necessarily thinking about sex, it is often that they are not be viewed in the way they intend. In other words, dressing in a way that a man may interpret as sexual my be unintentional -- because they were not thinking about it that way when they got dressed. Which suggests thinking about sex less. Unless, of course, as I noted at the start, you do believe it is intentional and they are, indeed, "asking for it." In which case I disagree with you on entirely different grounds. Bottom line: Just because society views women as little more than sexual objects does not mean that women actually think about sex more.
women cared more about what others thought about them were less likely to report food and sex-based thoughts. They were equally like to report their sleep-based thoughts, which aren't so subject to stereotypes, Fisher said. The finding suggests that women, but not men, are influenced by social desirability concerns in what they were thinking or
what they would admit to thinking.
So lets analyze this a bit............hmmmmmm..........
so women will LIE to make themselves look good.....holy even in catholic terms....SHOCKER...watching my brother go through a divorce and thinking back on various broken relationships i can say first hand that this study has revealed what i've always known............women lie to make themselves look good publicly --- women use "I'll look like a saint strategy" by using HYPER blabber mouth gossip tactics knowing men will not discuss anything unless provoked........apparently its in their DNA........and they get away with it too.
I'mn pretty found of my own "thoughts"... one good point, for most woman.............. sex is a much stronger drive as we mature.............. men....well,, depends on the man... I I am thoroughly happy with my gender and my human sexual drive!!
yep...all men are just alike. Any feelings on blacks, gays, Jews? Do you see them as all alike too? hmmm simple...eh? Prejudice is just that...simple, so we do not have to warm up our brains and accept all people as the individuals they are.
@RedSquirell - you can't possibly have missed that the post was tongue-in-cheek. And, unlike the groups you list, there is no history of discrimination against men in our society, so your response is just plain silly. I'm male but am not the least bit offended by Tina-29331 or any of the replies before yours. I rather enjoyed her post, in fact.
I think there's a big difference between thinking about the act of sexual intercourse and looking at a a woman and thinking, "man, she's hot!"
If they are taking the act of sexual intercourse and admiring the female form and combining them into one and calling it "thinking about sex" then sure, I think about sex just as much as I think about food. I only think about sleep when I'm tired.
If they are only talking about thinking about sexual intercourse, then, I think about food way more!. Probably about 10:1.
Actually, here's what I think about most in order of most least: 1. Why the hell did I get married! 2. Why would anyone want to have kids! 3. I'm hungry. 4. What can I search for on google next. 5. Damn, she's hot. 6. What project should I work on next around the house. 7. Why did I ever agree to 2 dogs and 2 cats!. 8. 12 years to go until the last kid is in college!!!!!! 9. Why do the kids have to touch the walls constantly. 10. why can't the kids take care of their toys!. 11. I smell dog crap, which one crapped on the floor now! 12. My back hurts. 13. Why do I bite my nails knowing they are going to hurt later. 14. I need a BEER!!! Actually, that should be #1 but I don't feel like reordering everything. 15. Intercourse. 16. The wife's fat and bitchy, I might as well go jerk off. 17. Snack time.
Kevin you are a sick an twisted individual! Of course beer should be #1!
Seriously funny post dude! LOL! :)
I read it to my wife and she thought it was funny too. (And then she asked me if I thought she was fat and bitchy. I said "no" because I value my life.)
Kevin, that is the funniest damn thing I have heard in ages! I nearly spit my coffee all over the keyboard! Oh so true though...I can totally relate. Happy Friday!
@Kevin: Man, your life sucks! On the other hand, if beer really is #1 on the list, maybe your life rocks! All that other stuff can take a back seat. Mmmmmm, BEER!
So in other words the study was pointless and proved nothing but that journalist like using misleading titles to draw people in. Which makes them nothing more then tabloid whore writers.
Who the F U C K funds research projects like this. What next, are they going to spend a millions dollars to determine if getting hit in the head with a baseball bat can cause brain damage. Seriously, if scientists in general want to be taken seriously they have got to stop having research on such stupid topics.
@Domewars - it's OK, really. It doesn't cost a million dollars to ask 250 or so people a few questions and write a paper. And nobody will question the importance of general relativity and quantum mechanics just because somebody spends a little time investigating something that's more amusing than significant. Take a deep breath.
Maybe I'm exposing myself as 'unusual' here but trust me, I never, ever thought of sex every 7 seconds! Not even close! Not even in the Einstein realm of time-space continuum relativity close. Who in blazes comes up with this garbage? Is there research money involved?
how can 165 people be science this lady is stupid. no wonder these studies get rejected i asked 2000 people..............so what?? a study is alot of people over alot of time....................when scientists get back to that? ill get back to believing...there studies. 157 people give me a break.
why dont you ask 50 people and have them respresent all of us. or ask 10.....
there has to be more responsiblity in the sceience community. there has to be guidlines on these studies...............at a minimum 20,000 people should be asked about even burps..............
how can any scientist claim to have sceince asking 1000 or 500 people......
and have that respresent society............................i reject all there mini studies......
I will say this; sex is one of the few diversions in this mucked-up world that for that brief period of time...nothing else matters. You can escape with drugs, or do it the natural way.....wham-bam-thank you mamm.
This study was a waste of time and money...it's already a given.
On a side note;...If God made man in his image...designed woman out of a rib....I've got a bone to pick with HIM someday. Either HE'S a real comedian or just bored. Why didn't he make man/woman equal in the sex department? You know, both peak at the same age as far as "drive" is concerned. Both require "it" as much as the other. It just seems that the two sexes are wired so differently that the inevitable outcome is full of angst, frustration, and a real "Bone" (no pun intended) of contention.
It serves an evolutionary purpose.... can you imagine if women wanted sex as much as men? They would have sex with the first idiot that propositioned themselves to them, and then they would get pregnant with this idiot's offspring.... leading to a world full of idiots.
I suppose women serve as the world's quality control.... and we men just have to compete to be the best... we are the disposable candidates.
Okay, just because we have sex, means we're going to get pregnant? Hello, Charlie25. Someone invented that lovely little thing called the birth control pill. I didn't have sex with the first guy who propositioned, and I didn't get pregnant by the first guy I did have sex with. It has nothing to do with a woman's desire for sex. It's all about her desire to finally mate with someone they find compatible. As a writer, I'm pretty sure I think about sex a lot more than most women, which makes me want it more than most women. We're out there-we're just not stupid.
i was talking about the human race and evolution.. and why we were designed this way.... there was no birth control pill when primitive humans started out... and the reason sex exists and is pleasurable is so that we can reproduce... the fact that we've decided to put pregnancy and childbirth out of the sex equation is something from the modern world...
you're right, the world is full of idiots... imagine if women didn't even make the attempt at naturally selecting their future husbands or fathers.. or whatever... i can't even imagine
I guess they'll have to do some more studies similar to this one to get better feedback from the participants. Remember what they said about the people that were worried about what others thought of them. That will be hard to get around. Just my thoughts.
This study does an excellent job of proving that self-reported studies aren't worth the paperon which they are printed.
Ladies, don't believe this report for a minute. We male animals cannot go for more than a few minutes without lusting for your shapely legs. Legs legs legs Lilly Lilly legs legs Lilly legs...
Men who only think about sex once an hour? Where did they find 120 prepubescent college students?
I've been thinking about sex since I woke up this morning, 3 hours ago. But this still only counts as 1 time today.
Be careful when you shave, Tony.

What?? You're saying that my Mother loved sex? No... are you sure about this?? And my Wife, too? Really...?
Yes, your wife, too. She just doesn't like it with you.
Ever picked up a woman's magazine in a waiting room?
I was shocked at how very sex oriented they are. They are very much more 'earthy' than men's magazines.
Sex : Men like looking at pics more than women. Women like reading text about sex, more than men.
Bottom Line: Each gender likes it as much as the other gender does. Wouldn't do it otherwise......

As my hubby of many years says, don't ever take a good hard-on for granted!

Uh, I think the majority of people alive ponder food and sleep and sex.
What else do they ponder?
Not much.
They ponder the weather.
Is it too hot to sleep?
It's a nice day for a picnic.
Let's "make love" in the rain.
See, they just think about the weather.
money....at least the guys do...........it is the first requirement to getting the other three.....especially sex
So, Fake, does that mean women think about sex, because that's how they get money?
All this proves is that another study has figured out that men are simple creatures, and nobody can figure out women.
women cared more about what others thought about them were less likely to report food and sex-based thoughts. They were equally like to report their sleep-based thoughts, which aren't so subject to stereotypes, Fisher said.

Prenup up guys.
I don't know why, but somehow that's a relief ... !
I'mn pretty found of my own "thoughts"... one good point, for most woman.............. sex is a much stronger drive as we mature.............. men....well,, depends on the man... I I am thoroughly happy with my gender and my human sexual drive!!
Women are complicated.
Men are simple.
Feed them and fu*k them and they are happy.
Nay your forgetting about competition. Men like to compete and think about taking over the world.
@Mescovic212 - if I get enough sex and food I don't need to take over the world.
Hey, I'd like to take over the world! Lol.
Y'know Tina, you hit the nail on the head! Feel free to stop by anytime! ;)
Is that a bad thing?
yep...all men are just alike. Any feelings on blacks, gays, Jews? Do you see them as all alike too? hmmm simple...eh? Prejudice is just that...simple, so we do not have to warm up our brains and accept all people as the individuals they are.

Men have no history of discrimination against them? When our modern time becomes history, then there will be. It's happening now.
@TonyInDallas - please. Really. You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself. What positions of power in our society are not male-dominated?
Women control more than you think. You don't have to sit on the throne to rule.
According to my own personal study,I think about sex every 2 seconds.Does is make me a perv?
No; just a typical male.
Or are you a female?
Only if it involves animals, or minors, or disabled people, or same sex, or........ oh never mind, you are a pervert for sure!
I think there's a big difference between thinking about the act of sexual intercourse and looking at a a woman and thinking, "man, she's hot!"

That is hillarious Kevin.
Couldn't have said it any better myself. Though, I might have added, "She's yelling, oh crap, what have I done now?"
@Kevin: Man, your life sucks! On the other hand, if beer really is #1 on the list, maybe your life rocks! All that other stuff can take a back seat. Mmmmmm, BEER!
That was hilarious.
So in other words the study was pointless and proved nothing but that journalist like using misleading titles to draw people in. Which makes them nothing more then tabloid whore writers.
You nailed it.
I'd say 90% of the "studies" done nowdays are pointless and prove nothing.
We already knew this.
However, the order is
SEX
FOOD
SLEEP.
Variety is just a matter of changin' the order of things.
Acutely - You have it wrong; Eat, Sleep, Fish!
Actually, I think it's:
Sex, Nap, Snack.
You forgot to mention the big screen tv.
Who the F U C K funds research projects like this. What next, are they going to spend a millions dollars to determine if getting hit in the head with a baseball bat can cause brain damage.

Always intend the pun, never beat about the bush.
Dang, mark another thought about sex.
Men have libidos. Women have agendas. To put it in Billy Crystal's brilliant term: "Women need a reason to have sex. Men just need a place."
Is this a surprise to anyone?
Some researchers have a lot of time on their hands....or something else.
Food, sex and sleep. What else is there?
It serves an evolutionary purpose.... can you imagine if women wanted sex as much as men? They would have sex with the first idiot that propositioned themselves to them, and then they would get pregnant with this idiot's offspring.... leading to a world full of idiots.

Ah, the bee species. Queen goes out, male does his duty,...then she kills/eats him. Bet there are a lot of women out there wishing such was the case.
@The Beev-2396805 - maybe males, too. The drones probably die happy.
We need to have sex, then we need food, and sleep, so we can do it again. It is that simple.
