FOR every woman expecting the earth to move, there are two with more practical motives.
From relieving boredom, to keeping the peace or curing a headache, women have sex for many reasons but romance and passion come rather low on the list, a new book has revealed.
One woman even admitted to having sex just so her husband would put the rubbish out.
"Research has shown most men find most women at least somewhat sexually attractive, whereas most women do not find most men sexually attractive at all," Why Women Have Sex authors Cindy Meston and David Buss said.
Having apparently discounted physical attraction, the 1000 women interviewed by the Texas University professors gave a huge range of reasons for sleeping with a man.
One said she did it for a spiritual experience, proclaiming: "It's the closest thing to God."
But mostly the explanations were far more mundane, with 84 per cent admitting to having sex just to ensure a quiet life or to bargain for household chores. One woman said: "I have sex to relieve the boredom because it's easier than fighting. Plus it gives me something to do."

She shouldn’t take her sign so seriously. Seriously she needs some deco’s...............or something.
I don’t care why they do it, as long as they do it.
Which one would that be? Alastor? ;^)
I was talking about a crazy eyed women with that creepy look in her eyes.
Perhaps not Zeus, but Thor...VERY Thor indeed.

I don’t want to ruin the light hearted fun of enjoying an ironic photo so you may want to skip reading this.
I look at that picture and see a damaged soul, fragile, humiliated etc. Hard to say how attractive that protester is - she seems to reject her own appearance. She’s unusually pale and it looks like there are circles under her eyes. She has de-emphasized her femininity every way she can. What if she was tanned, smiling, wore make up, stood with confident, relaxed posture - she might be attractive. Judging by her body language and her ‘need’ for that sign - she seems like a person with awful problems. I hope the cheerleader type was genuinely gentle in offering her a soda - and not catty.
Great, refreshing post. Thank you for appreciating men for being men. Men of all types, just for being men.
Thank you.
I met her! She was so fond of calling me her Dixie Chicken...
It is, quite literally, my pleasure.
No, I’m not that good at math.
She might indeed ... one is led to wonder to what extent her current condition was inflicted on her, and to what extent it is self inflicted
I am very familiar with this motive anc cannot remember a time my partner hasn't cried out "Oh God, Oh God, Oh God".
10,266 and that does count leap years ( subtract the dates in Excel). Unfortunately my wife doesn’t have your attitude.
” whereas most women do not find most men sexually attractive at all,”
I don’t find men reek of alcohol attractive. I do not find men who don’t shower attractive.
Other than that, I think a lot of men have sexy characteristics.
I’d be interest to see what their pool of “most men” was.
Well, longevity counts for something.
In all seriousness, it seems that society is so completely anti men and the “typical” women I see daily have so completely absorbed it that I can’t get through a day without hearing their husbands/boyfriends just ridiculed. All day, every day. Ridicule, laugh at, complain about, simply anti man behaviour. I have tried to point it out to them and it seems that they have no clue how destructive that attitude is to their relationships. How can they behave that way without actually thinking that way? If that is how they think, then how do they treat their husband/boyfriend?
It seems that some days my heart is heavy with sadness at this situation. Many times I am not even aware of that sadness.
Then a ray of sunshine appears and burns off that fog! Your post has lightened my heart today. I very much appreciate that.
So, in conclusion, thanks again for sharing your perspective. It brought some sunshine into my life today.
Women have to make men believe they don't enjoy it so men will keep paying for it..been that way since Adam and Eve....("gee honey you must really hate those five orgasms I gave you...and I guess you were howling at the moon because you hated it so?...")...sorry gals...I'm too old and experienced to fall for that bull....but I guess there are guys who still fall for it....
unh uh.
