A survey of 4000 women by travel company lastminute.com has found that women think about sex more every day than men.
Apparently we girlies spend 180 minutes a day pondering rumpy-pumpy, while men only think about sex for 150 minutes. I’m not sure why a travel company would be interested in this infomation, but there it is. They do also point out that both men and women spend most of their day thinking about work – ten hours for men and eight and a half hours for women.

The survey contradicts the general consensus that men spend a lot of their time thinking about sex. We’ve all heard the idea that men think about sex once every seven seconds or so. Urban myth site Snopes has a great article dispelling this idea. They pointed me to the Kinsey Institute’s FAQ page which offers these two interesting statistics taken from research done in 1994:
“54% of men think about sex every day or several times a day, 43% a few times per month or a few times per week, and 4% less than once a month.
“19% of women think about sex everyday or several times a day, 67% a few times per month or a few times per week, and 14% less than once a month”
Who to believe? The up-to-date travel company survey or the out-of-date serious sex research? Does it make a difference that the lastminute survey respondents were British?
I’m not sure who’s right, but it has me wondering about how often I spend thinking about sex – and work – each day. When you’re a pornographer these two things co-incide so I’m sure my results would skew the survey completely.
The Sun gives its take on the story here.
I never understood how they measure these things. Do they ask people questions and expect an honest answer, or do they lock their subjects up in a room and monitor their pulse for 30 days or something?
