Women think about food more than sex

This has been a very interesting survey. According to it, 25 % of women think about food every half an hour & 10 % think about sex over the same time span.

This survey was carried out by a slimming group & they interviewed 5000 men & women. But some women feel bad about their eating habits.

• 60% of women in relationships are not happy eating in front of their partner
• 50% of women in relationships are shy undressing in front of their partner
• 40% of women feel as though they are constantly dieting
• 13% of women choose low-calorie meals instead of what they would actually like when eating out

Many women even pretend that they are on a diet. I know such people. They haven’t shed any weight in all these years but they pretend to be on a diet every time we meet them. And some women believe that everyone else is on a diet, cause they are on a diet. When my sister got ill last year, her doctor was adamant that she wasn’t ill, cause she didn’t seem ill. Instead she told me that she was on a diet & yet she eats everything. She thought that I had been on a crash diet. She also suggested few tests to me. It was really too much, but people presume everything just by looking at someone who is not as fat as them.

I don’t know about others but I don’t think about food or sex after every half an hour. It’s not possible.

Sex addicts afraid of intimacy

Sex addicts feel threatened by intimacy and are more insecure about romantic relationships than the rest of the population, a New Zealand study has found.



The survey of more than 600 people found those who indulged in compulsive sexual behaviour felt anxious and insecure about relationships and tried to avoid becoming too emotionally attached to others.

Massey University said the study, conducted by psychology honours student Karen Faislander under the supervision of a practising clinical psychologist and an academic specialist, was the first of its type in New Zealand.

Faislander said sex addiction, which made headlines this year with revelations about Tiger Woods' love life, was a complex condition that had not been researched as thoroughly as areas such as or depression.



She said the term "sex addict" first emerged in the early 1980s and there were 29 other terms in scientific literature that described the condition, including sexual compulsivity, excessive sexual desire disorder and hypersexuality.



The preferred contemporary term is out-of-control sexual behaviours (OOSCH). "It's widely misunderstood and stigmatised," Faislander said. "There's no known effective treatment. We don't know what causes it or how we treat it."



Faislander's study used an anonymous online survey to quiz 621 people about their sex lives. In all, 407 identified themselves as sex addicts while 214 were not.
