Who Ever Heard of a Good Piece of Elephant?

This is bunk. Democrats are way sexier than Republicans.

The survey does not say that Republicans are sexier. Just that they are happy with their sex lives. That is, that their Republican spouses are good in bed, worried about their spouse's satisfaction, and are not only worried about their own instant gratification. About what I expected. :)

Yes... and Republicans aren't totally exhausted from staying up all night so we could be the first ones to vote. That probably helped skew results. hahaha

And while there are many fine looking Dem ladies out there, I gotta say the GOP has us beat in the chick department. I know that I could name several Republican women who would improve my sex life considerably.

It's just because married people (esp. women) are more likely to be Republican, and married people are more likely to be (claim) sexual satisfaction.

Saying Republicans are more sexually satisfied is like saying children with bigger feet are better spellers. It's true, but only because older children have bigger feet.

The problem with these surveys is, "0how many people are going to be candid with a stranger about their intimate affairs?" ("Oh yeh Mr. Stranger, let me tell you about my [fill in the blank] fetish.")

The most reasonable deduction from the data is that D's are more candid and willing to talk about such issues truthfully.

But then again, aren't D's more candid and willing to talk about any issue truthfully?

Actually if you read further down, the article admits the methodology is flawed. More men are Republicans, and more women are Democrats. Since the surveyors did not try to balance that factor in their survey group, of course their results are going to show Repubs report more satisfaction and Dems less. Any time sexual satisfaction, faking orgasm, etc are surveyed, men report higher levels of satisfaction and lower levels of faking orgasm than women. It's a gender difference, not a partisan one.

What a ridiculous "study".
