Healthy Sex Lives
By Raven Usher
This is not necessarily an exclusively LGBT issue. A bunch of my friends and I got to talking about how much sex you have to have in order to consider it a good sex life. Of course there was the quality above quantity argument. But eventually we all agreed that no matter how great the sex is at the time you are doing it… if you are not getting it often enough you still have a bad sex life. It is the difference between good sex and a good sex life.
So that started the ‘how much is good, how little is bad, how much is great, how little sucks’ debate. And what was the time frame that should determine if the frequency of sex is good or bad? With all the things that can happen in life from day to day and week to week, we decided to measure by the year. We also decided to start in the middle with “good”.
We all agreed that once a week is good. But then there are those weeks when a couple with a woman involved in it would rather BBQ and eat her partner’s head than let that person touch her. So we figured 52 weeks in the year minus the 12+/- weeks that happen once a month when it just is not happening would be the “good” scale. So if you have sex between 40 and 52 times a year your sex life is “good”.
Then we had to figure out how to set the other categories. We decided to stay with the 12 point spread since that is the range in our original “good” category. We started by working down from good, figuring that those are the categories where most men would end up. (Sorry boys but this was a conversation between women.) That gave us 3 categories below good until we got to zero. Then, in the interest of balance, we decided to stick with 3 categories above good as well.
We know full well that a LOT of men, particularly straight men, are going to claim to be in the top category. We also know that 99.5% of those men are lying. Believe me when I say it, guys… the girls KNOW when guys are lying about their sexual exploits. So before you try to claim a spot in the top category, remember that we know better!
Anyway… here is the sex life scale. It goes by how many times you have sex in a year.
0 - 15 = in need of medical help
16 - 27 = bad
28 - 39 = needs improvement
40 - 52 = good
53 - 64 = exceeds expectations
65 - 76 = great
77 and up = porn star
(Remember that women know when men lie about sex.)
Blessed Be
