I used to be a librarian. Some people are surprised that I then became a pornographer but a newly released survey shows that librarians are actually very sexy people.
Way back in 1992, Will Manley conducted a survey of over 5000 librarians, asking a slew of very personal questions about sex. The Wilson Library Bulletin refused to run it so now, after all this time, he’s posted the results on the internet. YAY!

The survey found that 20% of librarians had actually had sex in a library and that 61% had rented an X-rated movie. 91% had read The Joy of Sex. 20% thought sex without love equated to bad sex. What’s really fun, however, are the tongue-in-cheek questions:
Question 13 – Shakespeare and “the 1st Time”
When asked to pick the Shakespearean title that best described their first sexual encounter, 28% chose Comedy of Errors; 23% chose Midsummer’s Night Dream; 22% chose Much Ado About Nothing; 21% chose All’s Well That Ends Well; and 6% chose Rape of Lucrece.Question 14 – Genre Fiction and Sex Lives
38% of the respondents classified their sex life as a “romance”; 31% as a fantasy; 22% as a comedy, and 9% as a tragedy.
It’s a great read. It tends to confirm my experiences of other librarians – I’ve found them to be open-minded and less conservative when it comes to sexual issues and they often have a wicked sense of humour. I’d love to see the survey repeated with 2010 librarians.
Ha! Thanks for the link. That was a fun read.
I love the cartoon you added at the end of the post. She’s a librarian (I assume) and must have awesome strength to hold that pose! Nice combination.
