And you thought sex was a natural
occurrence? Well, here’s an update! Scientists from across the world
have come together to prove that sex is completely scientific, perhaps
as technical as photosynthesis and we bet the following scientific facts
about sexual contact between two individuals will leave you completely
shocked!
1. Some individuals are wired to have more sex
Yes!
Well, while we are not hinting at nymphomaniacs or people whose sexual
drives are overtly high but according to a University of California, Los
Angeles study, an individual’s brain wiring may influence the number of
sexual partners he or she has.
The
researchers came to this conclusion when they performed brain scans of
volunteers as they viewed sexually suggestive images and then probed the
subjects about their individual sexual behaviours of past year.
Apparently, it turned out that individuals whose brains were most active
while viewing the sexual images, were also the ones who had most number
of sexual partners.
2. Lower cholesterol boosts sexual performance
If
you are struggling in the bed, then chances are you’ve got to get your
cholesterol level duly checked up by a doctor. Well, it might sound
ridiculous but high cholesterol can actually lead to erectile
dysfunction. And, according to a study undertaken by researchers at
Rutgers University’s Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, people who take
medication to lower their cholesterol level can actually enjoy better
sex eventually.
3. If you don’t cuddle after sex, you can’t satisfy your partner
Women have been demanding it for ages, but looks like men will have to finally agree to cuddle their partners in bed, after a rocking sex session and that’s all thanks to a University of Toronto study, which has proven that cuddling post sex is as important to relationship satisfaction as the intercourse.

And,
this satisfaction has everything to do with the release of oxytocin,
which is produced when a couple indulges in a loving session of
cuddling.
4. Get aroused and sex won’t be messy anymore
Well,
isn’t sex a messy activity, mostly hen you’re not in a mood? Well,
that’s all because of the fact that sexual arousal overrides the body’s
natural “disgust response, implying that you won’t find the act messy as
long as you’re enjoying it.
According
to a study undertaken by researchers from University of Groningen in
the Netherlands, when a group of women were asked to watch either an
erotic film, a sports video, or a neutral video of a train, and then
perform a series of unpleasant acts (like drinking out of a cup with a
bug in it), they found that those who’d watched the sexual acts rated
the tasks as less disgusting and were also able to complete more of them
as compared to their counterparts.
5. Sex does burn calories. Here’s proof!
It’s
the most commonly cited thing about sex but seldom have people believed
it and guess now, it;s the time to actually get your facts right
because according to a study by researchers from the University of
Quebec, getting busy between the sheets for an hour can burn as many
calories as 30 minutes of jogging!
As
per the study, men burn an average of 4.2 calories a minute during sex,
while women burned about 3.1. Overall, men and women burn about 101 and
69 calories per session, respectively.
