It is known that men think about sex more often than women, but researchers of Ohio State University wanted to know if they really think about it every seven seconds as estimated.
Therefore, 163 female and 120 male college students were asked to record how often they think about food, sleep or sex with a tally counter.
The results show that men thought about sex approximately 19 times a day whereas women thought about it only 10 times. It was also striking that men had almost as many thoughts of food (18 times) and sleeping (11 times a day) as of sex.
