On average, men have sex every 7 seconds

There is a rumor that men think about sex once every 7 seconds. If you count on your fingers, if a man sleeps 8 hours a day, then in the 16 hours he is awake, he will think about sex more than 8,200 times in total! In fact, the number of times a man thinks about sex is not more than the number of times he thinks about sleep and food. But how many times is it exactly? Let's see the editor's analysis!

Do men really think about that every 7 seconds?

He kept asking for it, until I wanted to run away… There is a rumor that “men want sex once every 7 seconds”, but after all, there is no scientific data to support it, so it may just be a legend. However, the “experiences” of the following two netizens make people doubt: Is the rumor true?

How many times a day do men think about sex?

Previously, most studies on this issue asked subjects to recall how many times they thought about sex in a day or even a week, which is not very reliable. Recently, a study by psychologist Fisher from Ohio State University has made a new breakthrough.

His team recruited 163 female subjects and 129 male subjects from college students, and then asked them to carry a counter. Then the researchers asked 60% of these subjects to press the counter to record a number every time they thought of sex, while the other subjects needed to count when they thought of food or sleep. In this way, interference during questioning and errors during recall can be avoided.

The strongest YY expert: think about it once every 158 seconds

The researchers found that the median number of times male subjects thought about sex was 18 times a day, while female subjects thought about sex 10 times a day. Basically, on average, each male thought about sex more than once an hour when awake, while female subjects thought about sex about half as much as male subjects.

It seems that the male subjects are far from reaching the level of thinking once every 7 seconds. So what is the level of the strongest among them? In this study, the most active (or most Hungry ……) thought about sex 388 times a day.

Men aren't always so 'hungry and thirsty': they think about sex and food about the same amount of time

Although this data is indeed very impressive, even if sleep time is excluded, the average is only once every 158 seconds, which is far from the legendary once every 7 seconds.

However, although men do think about sex more often, it cannot be said that sex is the only thing on men's minds, because in this experiment, male subjects did not think about sex more often than they thought about sleep or food. It is believed that this may be because men care more about their physical condition and physical needs.

Moreover, those who are frightened by the YY experts should not rush to faint. This study only recorded the number of times people thought about sex, but failed to record the specific situation of each time they thought about sex. Maybe, every time a man sees a beautiful woman, it is not just a flash of thought, but a sexual fantasy that lasts for 10 minutes!

However, the subjects of this study were limited to college students, most of whom were under 25 years old, and could not represent the overall level of men. Therefore, those uncles who are already "at the end of their rope" should not even think about taking advantage of this!
