10 (weird) Things That Can Mess Up Your Sex Life by Nobody: 12:30pm On Sep 17, 2013
1. Not Having a Sense of Smell
Scientists have found that smells plays an important
role in sex — but not in the way you’d think. Studies
show that men and women who lack the ability to
smell also report having fewer sexual partners and
being less satisfied with the sex that they actually
do, somehow, manage to have. The issue is that
smell plays a huge role in how human beings
communicate emotions to each other, with feelings
like “nervousness” and “fear” being regularly
transmitted through odors before they’re
communicated with words or body language. Losing
the ability to smell when your partner is turned on or
even if they’re sexually compatible with you deprives
men and women of the confidence they need. Of
course, I’m not saying that you should go around
sniffing people in bars or asking them to smell you
before you try to bring them home, but… actually?
Yes, that’s what I’m saying, because that sounds
hilarious. So go do that now.
2. Using An Android Phone
According to an OKCupid survey, iPhone Users have
an average of 10-12 sexual partners by age 30, with
Blackberry users coming in a decent second at 8 and
Android trudging along at the back of the line with
an average of 6. There’s no obvious reason, but since
Android users are more likely to put out on the first
date we’re forced to assume it’s because they’re just
desperate. I could make the obvious joke about how
iPhone users aren’t just getting f*cked by Apple (like
Wired did) or I can talk about how Android users are
probably getting better at swiping their own screen
— but I won’t, because that would be crass. And I’m
never crass. Moving on.
3. Not Shaving
A recent study showed that men who don’t shave
have less sex, fewer orgasms, are more likely to
work blue collar and suffer from angina. Goodbye
Brawny-Man stereotype, right? Not quite: the study
wasn’t just about shaving, but about men who stay
in all day and never go out and don’t care about their
appearance. Basically it’s proof of the idea that if you
don’t take care of yourself and never try to get laid,
you won’t. So if you’re feeling bad about your lack of
action, a shower might be a good place to start.
4. You Have High Testosterone
While most people believe that testosterone is the
“Sex drive” hormone, and while that’s almost
certainly true for men, it’s starting to look like it
might be a bit more complicated for women. A
recent study shows that women with high
testosterone still get aroused, but are less interested
in having sex than they are with taking care of
business themselves. Going it solo, if you will.
Saluting the man in the canoe. Typing with two
fingers. Sending yourself some morse code.
Celebrating independence with a private, personal
fireworks display. You know. Masturbating.
5. Taking Oral Contraception
Despite the fact that the whole reason for the pill’s
invention is to give women the opportunity to have
more sex, countless studies continue to prove that it
actually kills women’s libidos. Anecdotal evidence
aside (You’re sure to meet someone who can
carefully explain how because this isn’t true for
them, it must not be true for anyone.) science says
that the pill makes you not wanna have sex. IUDs
and condoms are fine, though, so go have whatever
kind of fun you feel like.
6. Not Being Spiritual Enough
Having a well developed sense of spirituality not
only leads to more frequent and satisfying sex, but it
may also be the most fascinating difference between
men and women. While spirituality (not religion
these are very different) is the single most powerful
determining factor in a woman’s sexual behavior, it
is much weaker and has the opposite effect in men.
Women who are more spiritual have more frequent
sex, with more people, are more satisfied by it and
less likely to use a condom. Spiritual men, on the
other hand, have less sex. This is most likely because
men aren’t as likely to equate satisfying sex with
emotional openness the way women are.
7. Not Having Sex
Well, damn. It turns out that not having sex is a
pretty big determinator in keeping you from having
sex. A recent study found that not having sex
creates the kind of behavior that continually leads to
less and less sex. For example, couples that only
have sex once a week are more likely to take more
work to use up that extra energy, which then leaves
their mana-well far too low to cast the level-6 Boner-
Bolt their partner so desperately needs. And as the
stress builds, having sex becomes even more
difficult, until you’re drawn down into an entirely
sexless void where everyone always wears clothes
and the only thing on TV is Matlock.
8. Being Too Smart (Or Too Dumb)
Sorry, nerds: in the harsh words of an unkind
sociology professor from North Carolina,
“Intelligence is negatively associated with sex
frequency.” The smarter you are, the less likely you
are to get laid. The longer you spend in school, the
more nights you spend alone. The harder you pump
those blood vessels in your brain, the less pumping
you’ll… well, you get the picture. Weirdly enough,
there’s something of a parabola in the high school
years, that quickly becomes more of a straight line
as you get older: in high school, low intelligence and
high intelligence are both associated with less sex,
so it’s the average Jill and Joe that are stealing
cigarettes and blowing each other’s minds in the
third-floor bathroom during fifth period. But as they
grow up, the dummys have a lot of making up to do,
and boy oh boy do they ever make it up. The smart
folk never do, though. They live their lives cold and
alone forever. All of them. If you think you’re smart
and having sex then, well, I’m sorry to say that
you’re wrong about one of those things. Or you’re
the outlier. Whichever.
9. Watching Porn
You’ve all heard the story about Squinty-Bill, the
ordinary teenager who was corrupted by internet
porn and turned into a sex-crazed maniac who blew
his parents’ entire 401k on hookers in Las Vegas
during one orgiastic weekend. But you’ll be shocked
to learn that Squinty-Bill is most likely a myth, firstly
because of this study that correlates porn use with
erectile dysfunction, and secondly because I just
made Squinty-Bill up. Yup, while you may not go
blind, the truth is much, much darker: porn will slide
its spindly needles of addiction right down your
eyeballs, curl them inside your brain, and rip all the
parts out that make sex work. Especially if you live in
Rome, for some reason.
10. You’re a Smoker
Sorry guys, this one only applies to you. It turns out
that cigars are more like joysticks than Freud ever
imagined — in that when you burn one down, you
burn the other down as well. You light one up, and
the other gets cooled off. You can suck on one now,
but there’ll be nothing to suck on later. Smoking
makes your boner not work.
