"Almost 28,000 randomly selected men, aged 20 to 75, from the US, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Mexico and Brazil responded to a standardised telephone interview about their attitudes to life and sex. The results, published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, showed men overwhelmingly rated attributes such as being seen as a man of honour and having the respect of your friends ahead of having success with women when assessing masculinity.

well, having sex is a part of getting respect of your friends.

9/10/2008 12:03:26 AM

not so sure that has anything to do with respect from your friends

we just want to find a nice girl with enough money to take care of us and maybe menace us with violence, but never act on it

I'd like to see it broke down further by age... like 20-35, 36-50, 51-70

A guy who is just a manwhore, but has no friends or is seen as a scum bag is going to be MUCh more miserable than someone who has good friends and earned respect. Typically the latter qualities lead to getting women anyway.

oh, and bros before hos.

I'd be interested to see results for this kind of survey for women.

9/10/2008 11:46:05 AM

I'm not that surprised.

9/10/2008 11:48:17 AM

not that surprised

i think for women the number one thing would be that they want to be seen attractive by men. while not necessarily being sexually active or having a lot of sex with men the opportunity to do such and the desire of men which is accompanied by that plays a major role in their lives.
