"That’s really true even with the general population. It really is a man’s world in that sense. The problem is that doesn’t take into account the ratio of DESIRABLE women. And US culture kinda ruins a lot of them. Then again, it messes up males as well."

Amen. Take the "hot" chart. That's cute for FR posts, but hopefully it's not something to go by. Often a "hot" woman means she dresses worldly and likes to flirt with a lot of men to get attention -- something you don't want a wife to do. So our culture messes up men by making us want a woman that's more trouble than she's worth.

But then ... LOL ... there's the sexual behavior study done years ago that showed that the people who reported having sex the most frequently, reported being happier with the sex lives, and the women who reported attaining the Big O the most frequently LOL, are the people who reported all 3 of these characteristics:

1. Christian
2. married
3. attend church regularly

LOL

That study was called something like "The Socialization of Sexuality" and is the only large (read high power) sexual behavior study ever done that wasn't trying to solve a problem among a limited subculture of the U.S. (i.e. HPV among college-aged women, or AIDS among young black makes, or ED among vets, etc.). If you look at most sexual behavior studies there isn't much data except that one particular demographic some doctor has identified a problem among and asked the NIH for research funds for. The Socialization study is the only one in which the researchers just wanted to know what all sexual behaviors were going on in our country without trying to solve a problem, just see what's happening among everybody young and old or somewhere in between, black or white or somewhere in between, rich or poor or somewhere in between, east cost or west coast or somewhere in between, etc.

If you look at any other study's reporting and it describes general trends in sexual behavior without telling you which narrow demographic it's about, you're reading a lie masquerading as science because the other studies didn't collect data across all demographics like that one study did. In fact, the last research study I worked on just happened to be a sexual behavior study about getting the word out of the danger of AIDS to young black males in urban areas. I always keep an eye out to see if anyone claims data from it to point to general trends for middle-aged white rural women to "be aware of how much their husband cheats on them" or whatever LOL, but so far I haven't seen anyone bastardize that data like they have other research studies.
