Sex and Housework
October 21st, 2009 by Jon Taplin
Turns out the sight of a man mopping the floor is a real turn-on.
A new study shows that for husbands and wives alike, the more housework you do, the more often you are likely to have sex with your spouse.
Earlier studies have hinted at this connection for men; the sight of a husband mopping the floor or doing dishes sparks affection in the hearts of many wives. But the more-housework-equals-more-sex link for wives, documented in a study of 6,877 married couples published online recently in the Journal of Family Issues, is a surprise.
Since men are losing jobs faster than women, this is going to be more prevalent.
So much for sex. It was a bad habit anyway.

Hell, I not only mopped the floors, I pretty much did all the fancy work on the remodel…cherry trim, varnished beech floor, cherry and maple kitchen…and that didn’t work!

It’s not fair, Turner! But then that was more like men’s work. I suppose a jack sociologist would call the subject of Jon’s report something more like “the de-feminization of housework”, but I love the alternative motive. Why didn’t we discover this earlier?

Who knows, maybe this deep recession will beget another baby boomlet. That should keep the socios busy for awhile…

Well my husband was a fanatic when it came to cleaning and housework and now we are getting divorced. His need to have everything clean was a turn off.

Are you that’s not a serval, Hugo? An old friend had a serval that got loose and mangled several neighborhood dogs.

Well admittedly the tail is incosinsent, drew, but it did make for a pretty funny joke. For the record, a dingo did not eat my baby.
