Are guys really naturally perverted?!

[Blured]

I've been told my my all-knowing uncle that men thinking about sex once every 10 seconds.. is this a myth? Does sex interest men more than women?

[AntiLove_SuperStar]

This really rather depends on the individual. It's impossible to make such generalizations. For one thing, how the heck would you research it? Line up thousands of guys and ask them "roughly, how much do you think about sex every hour?"

 

Women posess as much capacity to be interested in sex as men. I know I for one think about it a lot, but if anyone thought about it every 10 seconds they wouldn't be able to hold any other train of thought, so it seems highly improbable as a statistic to be honest.

[Dako]

Maybe your uncle has an unusually high interest in sex?

 

I can go for hours without thoughts of whoopee.

[Day_Walker]

Ive heard the same thing it was a study in Maxim Magazine a while back, the same study found that women thought of sex every 6.5-7 seconds.

[Jabbe]

I disagree. Even when I became sexually active, there was a time where I didn't have any for over a year. It didn't drive me nuts nor was it constantly on my mind. Things like that depend on the individual.

I think I must be a man.

[BrokenWingedFaery]

All men are different, just like all grrrls.

 

And since when does thinking about sex, even often, make you perverted?

[highonyou]

it definitly depends on the indivdual, sex drive is based on how much testosterone you have floating around which i guess is why its assumed guys think about woohoo more.

 

i tend to think about sex loads the week before my period...bf loves it!

 

and a mans testosterone levels are at a peak about 9am and starts to decline during the rest of the day. set your alarm clocks ladies when your in the mood

That's crap. Boys maybe, men no.

[Dako]

Once you have a mortgage or a mother in law, you find other concerns.

[highonyou]

lol. i feel like i already have a mother in law, my bf's mum scare the bujeezus out of me.

 

just because as we get older we may find less time for sex, doesnt mean a man's thoughts dont wander onto that subject as well

Who cares? Seriously...

 

And if women weren't interested in sex, then we wouldnt be here.

 

 

What really got me is, "perverted". Now, thinking about sex is perversion? Wow, for a second I felt stuck in the middle age.

 

 

Lets see, a dog, a spider, a cat, a whale, a seal, a bird, an elephant, etc. All of them have sex, and most of what the male do has to do with sex, or getting a partner... so...

 

Every animal is perverted!!!!

 

 

I don't know your personal background, but I know you are a human, and that means you are a product of sex.

 

 

What is what really bothers you so much about sex? What makes you think so negatively about one of the most natural and basic instincts? What is the source of so much rejection?

The OP is not asking about "wandering on to the subject". He's talking about thinking about sex every 10 seconds. For most mature males every 10 minutes would probably be too much. The truth probably lies somewhere between there and daily.

[highonyou]

where "they" get the numbers for this, i dont know, but every 10seconds does seem farfetched.

 

i have a healthy sexuall appetite but every 6.5-7 seconds? yeah right...

[iamteddybearfeelmecuddle]

Yeah, I simply don't believe the 'average' male thinks about sex every 10 seconds or even remotely close. Sorry. No 'study' is going to make me buy that.

[miserableme]

They might think of it on an average of every 10 seconds. But it's not going to be for 1 second, every 10 seconds.

 

That's an average of 72 minutes or so spent each day thinking about sex. I don't think that's unreasonable. I probably spend much more.

But the study the OP refers to claims that it is once every ten seconds; not an accumulation of it.

[Dako]

Seriously, I've heard that study quoted for as long as I've known what sex is. You'd think in 40 years subsequent studies would produce different numbers. I smell an urban legend.

[highonyou]

i still dont buy it, a little fantasy would be around 5 minutes, then 10 secs and another 5 mins of fantasising?? i dont think it adds up, or else nothing would ever get done!

[agent1607307371]

If men only think about sex once every ten seconds, it doesn't mean they're perverted, it means I'm lapping them.

 

It depends on the individual and how high their sex drive is.

[BrokenWingedFaery]

It IS an urban legend, according to link removed.

[Lady Bugg]

Maybe it depends on who you're fantasizing about?? Hmmm Roseanne Barr...

OR Angelina Jolie?

[Aurian]

The culture definitely promotes it. Look at many TV shows. The guys are often horny sex-crazed horndogs. Reading ladies' magazines like Cosmo, you read about how guys think about sex all the time. And there are FAR more naughty guys magazines than naughty women's magazines!

[Dako]

IIRC, I bought one copy of Penthouse for an interview with Vincent Bugliosi.

That's all the smut I've purchased in my life.

That is so BS!

 

Knowing MAXIM they probably misinterpreted the results which sounded more like "a woman thought of sex every 6.5-7 seconds". Find a large enough population to conduct your study and I'm pretty sure you can create a true hypothesis!

 

I'm a guy, yes I think about sex, I often am caught daydreaming about it. But I know it would ruin my life if I thought about it every 10 seconds!
