Women Think About Food More Than Sex

(Newser) – Women think about food a lot—as in, more than they think about sex. A recent survey shows that while 25% of women think about food every half-hour, only 10% think about sex that often. When it comes to men, 5% think about sex once a minute and 36% find their minds wandering to it every 30 minutes. But even though women are thinking about food, they're probably not enjoying it: 25% say they're always concerned about their weight, the Daily Mail reports.

Even more depressing: More than 60% of women say they don't like eating in front of their partners, and 13% say they've chosen a "healthier" option while eating out instead of what they actually wanted. (Even so, 15% also admitted to eating junk food secretly, and 10% admitted to lying about it.) All of this comes to a head in the bedroom: Nearly 50% of women in relationships say they feel uncomfortable getting undressed.

I so disagree! Had my opinion been asked, I can guarantee you that sex would have easily won out over food. Or is it just because my guy rocks my world? Either way, this article leaves much to be desired.

That's funny, I thought it was money that women think about the most, then food, and then sex, in that order.

Not surprised. Too bad women don't think about sex more often. A good quickie burns a lot of calories.
