Dinner Better than Sex!

A report cited in the Melbourne Herald Sun found that young women prefer going out for a romantic dinner or getting a massage to having sex. The Turbo Twenties study, surveyed 570 Australian women in their 20s, and also found that financial security and travelling the world were their most important priorities.

About 30 per cent of participants said they preferred a romantic dinner to bedroom action, while a further 22.5 per cent rated a massage as better than sex. Only 16.6 per cent said they would rather have sex. Study author Tania Farrelly said she was surprised at the number of women preferring to forgo sex in favour of other pursuits.

"We thought they would still be right into it at that age," Ms Farrelly said.


Looks like I'm in the minority, how bout you? However, I have to say that I just wonder about these types of surveys. I mean, is a sample size of 570 sufficient to draw such conclusions? Would the results be different for different age groups?

For the next 3 months of rehab.

It's all a matter of frequency. If you have sex 3-4 times a week, a romantic dinner once a month, and a massage every 3 months, you'll pick the dinner or massage every time. Plus, the women know that either the dinner or massage will probably end with sex, so why not have your cake and eat it too?

If I had the choice between a Lamborghini and sex, I'd choose the Lamborghini of course. Ask the same question to a 14 year old boy and he'd choose the booty.

We want what we can't/don't have.

Are you kidding me? Every woman I know would take a good massage over sex - even GOOD sex - any day of the week.

Besides, with a massage you KNOW it will be good. With sex... well... there's always that element of the 'unknown'.

I'm 33-almost at my "peak" and I can tell you- I'd much prefer the sex. Dinner can come later from Taco Bell for all I care.
