Thank you, Toddrod. You just nailed one of the holes in the study’s results. Human beings get joy or sad out of a lot of other things aside from sex. Something the staff should’ve put into consideration before posting their results.

I’m glad I’m not the only one here with a beef about the study.

I wonder if this study is saying that sex is not the cause for feelings of esteem, either positive or negative. I would like to think that perhaps random sex is a symptom of other psychological conditions. For example, Joe is feeling very sexy and manly because he bought some new shoes, so that night he met a girl on Twitter, and met her for some random sex. It wasn’t the sex that caused Joe to feel good about himself, it was the shoes! The sex just came about because of all these other good feelings. I have a feeling I’m not good at trying to understand scientific studies.

Just what kind of random sex? The regular ‘one-night stand’ where the chick enjoys the boytoy she picked up at a bar or a club and then never see him again? The semi-drunken lesbian tryst at a college party because the frat boys are boors (or just boring) and the girl wants to act out a latent fantasy just once? The stopover at an airport hotel with a stranger during a snow storm where anything can happen? The pool boy/grocery delivery guy/home repairman affair since the husband’s away and the wife is too timid (or too unwilling) to go to the neighbors for a ‘cup of sugar’? The surprise of seeing the boyfriend with another woman (or in some cases, another guy) that suddenly turns into an impromptu threesome? The wedding anniversary glamour photo shoot that’s taken a few notches by the photographer suggesting a few sexy poses…a couple of corsets…some masks and elbow-length gloves…maybe some whips and chains and handcuffs and thigh-high leather boots? The visit with the son or daughter’s fiancé or fiancée that turns into something from THE GRADUATE if produced by PENTHOUSE ENTERTAINMENT? The attempted party crash at the posh neighbors’ shindig that’s actually a covert swingers’ party where anything allowable by the law goes? I wish those guys were a little more specific about the results and how they got them. (And yes, I know the sarcasm’s a bit over the top.)

Personally, I take the results with a grain of salt and a shot of tequila. By that logic, all men are horndogs and all women are virgins in a nunnery. Might as well declare all pre-martial sex of any kind as a form of rape since what these jackasses are implying that sex damages the self-esteem and mind. I mean, honestly, people! This is strictly sexual idiocy at its worst. I’d rather deal with a study on WHY some people enjoy random sex and why others want a relationship. That would help out a great deal than this mumbo-jumbo bullshit! No wonder sexual ethics in this country is so screwed-up. It’s either “Don’t do it until you’re married.” or “Let’s get bunny crazy with the butter and Jack Daniels and see what happens.”. No middle ground and no exploration into if you have a choice or should you have a choice between monogamy and ‘free love’.

I’m sorry, Ms. David, but I find the results highly dubious at best and dangerous at worst. I’d take my chances with a crooked roulette table than accept the above results as fact. They just seem…faked.
