According to a new book, there are 237 reasons why women
have sex. And most of them have little to do with romance or
pleasure

Do you want
to know why women have sex with men with tiny little feet? I am
stroking a book called Why Women Have Sex. It is by Cindy Meston, a
clinical psychologist, and David Buss, an evolutionary
psychologist. It is a very thick, bulging book. I've never really
wondered Why Women Have Sex. But after years of not asking the
question, the answer is splayed before me.
Meston and
Buss have interviewed 1,006 women from all over the world about
their sexual motivation, and in doing so they have identified 237
different reasons why women have sex. Not 235. Not 236. But 237.
And what are they? From the reams of confessions, it emerges that
women have sex for physical, emotional and material reasons; to
boost their self-esteem, to keep their lovers, or because they are
raped or coerced. Love? That's just a song. We are among the bad
apes now.
