Men think about sex more often than women, but a new study indicates they also spend more time thinking about other biological needs like eating and sleeping. The survey also broke down the stereotype that men think about sex every seven seconds, which would lead to more than 8000 thoughts of the kind in 16 hours awake.

In the new study, conducted by researchers at Ohio State University and scheduled for publication in the January issue of "Journal of Research Fri," queried the young weighed about sex on average almost 19 times a day, compared to almost ten times the daily women surveyed. As a group, men also thought about food about 18 times a day and sleep 11 times. Since the young subjects in both oral thought, on average, 15 times a day and 8.5 fold, respectively.

In the survey, the students carried a counter to count how many times thought about sex, food and sleep every day of the week, each student was to register only one type of thinking. They also had to answer questionnaires and to estimate how often they thought in daily affairs. In general, the level of acceptance of sexuality determined by the participants thought that the frequency of sex.

"If you had to know something about a person to predict how often she thought about sex, you better know your emotional orientation toward sexuality than if she is a man or a woman," says Terri Fisher, professor of Psychology of the University and lead author of the study.

According to Fisher, correct the stereotype about men's sexual thoughts is important: "It's amazing how these people cite false statistics that men think about sex constantly and much more than women. When a man hears such a statement, he may think there is something wrong with him because he is not spending much time thinking about your sexuality. And when a woman hears this, if she thinks she's thinking too much about sex, you will also find that there is something wrong with it. "

The study involved 163 college and 120 students aged between 18 and 25 years. Of these, 59 had to register their thoughts about food, about 61 163 on sleep and sex.
