LOL! Next one will probably tell us that rain is wet. :lol:

NEW YORK, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- Researchers at the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction at Indiana University say most men are always thinking of sex.

A study released Tuesday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Scientists found 54 percent of men and 19 percent of women admit they think about sex every day -- or several times a day -- in a society where they are bombarded with subconscious erotic images.

Scientists at the University of Minnesota found sexy subliminal images competed for attention in the brain even when the images were not right before a subject's eyes and most people are not consciously aware of them, ABC News reported.

Researchers also found sexual orientation often determines how the brain reacts to erotic images. Heterosexual women, for example, were more tuned in to pictures of naked men, the same reaction exhibited by homosexual men. But homosexual woman were equally attuned to naked images of both sexes, the report said.

Something to add to waste, some states are passing laws declaring their official language to be "English." What??? If you are a state of the United States of America, and the language of the US is English, then automatically I will say the language of the state has to be English. Do you really need to make a law for that?

The US doesn't currently have an official language. Some states feel the need to have one.

Hmm... 54% of men and 19% of women think of sex every day. I think that's an important study.

It tells us that 46% of men and 81% of women are liars.

:lol: How do you NOT think of sex at least once a day?

My sample set is definitely small (less than a hundred, not to mention the standard around one thousand ish) but this study in bunk. Or includes a lot of old people. I didn't bother to check out the entire article, but women my age think about sex at least once a day...

I'm with regit, a lot of lies.
