[history]
Scholars in antiquity began counting the ways that humans have sex, but they weren't so diligent in cataloging the reasons humans wanted to get into all those positions.
Darwin and his successors offered a few explanations of mating strategies — to find better genes, to gain status and resources — but they neglected to produce a Kama Sutra of sexual motivations.

But some respondents of both sexes explained that they'd had sex "to get rid of a headache."I did this once. Didn't work. Next morning he was still there.
Can't believe they thought this required a "study". What a waste of money.

It's no more complicated than this:
Women need a reason to have sex.
Men just need a location.

All these reasons are interesting but miss the mark. Sex is only about using another person’s body to fulfill a perceived lack in themselves.

What a disgusting waste of time and money!! This is akin to studying the sex lives of Pygmys in the 50’s.
Who freakin’ cares!!??
