orgasm and wealth

Recommended Posts

To be honest- as a woman i'm offended by this article...I'm not a big fan of wealthy men- imo i just see them as money hungry and superficial. I'm very simple- i don't need a lot to live and i don't strive to have a lot- i'd be happier if my SO went and picked me some wildflowers then if he spent money on flowers.. its all about it coming from the heart for me.

 

money is the root of all evil... look around you.

There are too many factors involved to say that it is actually the amount of money and not the effect of having money that would increase the ability of the female to orgasm. I can imagine that a woman who is more relaxed in general would be more likely to achieve orgasm... and, conversely, one stressed out would have a more difficult time. Thus, if there is less financial stress, I can see that positively affecting sexuality at some level. But to say that it is the amount of money itself is a leap. I mean, they could have also correlated the ability to orgasm with a number of other factors that may be unrelated.

The article's a nice headline-grabber, and the "golddigger" slant is part of that.

 

Looked at another way greater income can simply put a person in a better physical/mental place to want to have sex than less income. If someone's worried about having enough money to pay their rent or buy food, I kinda doubt they're gonna be in the mood, let alone be relaxed enough to have an orgasm. If someone's eating a crappy diet of the cheapest food available (which may not be nutritionally sound), they may not physically feel up to having sex. A few too many drive-thru meals and I know how I feel...bloated, lethargic and in need of a nap-- not really conducive to good sex.

 

Money in and of itself is not evil. It's no more evil than a hammer or a screwdriver. Money is no more than a tool people can use for either good purposes or not-so-good purposes, just like a hammer or screwdriver can be used to create useful, functional & beautiful items or can be used as a weapon. The saying is actually "The love of money is the root of all evil," but it's been misquoted so often that the version that leaves out the first 3 words is the better known one. Which is a shame because declaring that "money is the root of all evil" can give people some ideas about money that can do more harm to themselves than good.

 

Anyway, writing the article from the viewpoint that "Women are more likely to have orgasms if they're living in a situation where they're not particularly worried about having a roof over their head or food on the table or being able to provide for their kids" isn't nearly as attention grabbing as "Women are more likely to have orgasms if their partners are rich." So, score one for the article writer for getting you to read.

At the risk of focusing on the man as well as the woman, I'd apply Occam's razor: rich guys are more goal oriented and more 'driven to success', so they try harder.

 

 

you could be the most driven and determined man on earth - if a woman isn't having an orgasm ... she aint having one! that simple.

 

men need to stop thinking that they "give" a woman an orgasm- they don't.

And I always thought hippies and deadheads had better sex?!?! Maybe they just have more? It turns out that the uptight, rich, conservatives have better sex! Yeah!

I did say that some men "try harder", not "give". I agree, a man can only provide the opportunity - if the woman doesn't want an orgasm, than gosh darn it, they ain't having none of it! I'm not that naive to think women don't always get what they want...

 

Maybe rich girls just have better toys?

I just throw hundred dollar bills.. and they orgasm... lol.. jk

 

silly article...

 

but i think rich men are maybe more confident in what they have and are less woried about things... so maybe they focus more attention on thier partners hence more result in orgasm....

 

it doesnt matter rich or poor its the fact you pay more attention you will have better results...

In all honesty, some of the article makes sense to me, not because I think that way but ya know some people really are like this, so for some I think the article is true..;

 

"evolutionary psychology which suggests that both men and women are genetically predisposed to ruthlessly exploit each other to achieve the best chances of survival for their genes."

I know it's a bit controversial, but I believe there is a genetically programmed "survival of the fittest" behavioral attribute that makes women more attracted to successful men. It means the odds that their offspring will survive and flourish and be attractive to the opposite sex (if those offspring are males) is greater.

 

I've witnessed it first hand much of my life. Women tend to marry up, men tend to marry down. Women tend to marry older (as older men are further along in their careers and their success/status is more observable or guaranteed), while men tend to marry younger. Men tend to focus on looks, women tend to focus on the lifestyle he can offer her.

 

These are all generalities, but there's an underlying truth to them in my opinion. Though that doesn't mean that every individual fits neatly within this generality. Ultimately, everyone has free will.

It's not the money that gives most genetically active women orgasms... It's the total sense of security from her man and it's sad, but true, that monetary wealth helps a lot towards that womanly peace of mind; therefore, better sex and a life. Too bad I'm celibate until I meet my true love since imagine all the great potential orgasms I can offer women.
