patgundUT study says lust is top sex motivator for men and women
" After exhaustively compiling a list of the 237 reasons why people have sex, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin found that young men and women get intimate for mostly the same motivations.
It's more about lust in the body than a love connection in the heart.
College-age men and women agree on their top reasons for having sex: They were attracted to the person, they wanted to experience physical pleasure, and "it feels good," according to a peer-reviewed study in the August edition of Archives of Sexual Behavior. Twenty of the top 25 reasons given for having sex were the same for men and women.
Expressing love and showing affection were in the top 10 for both men and women, but they did take a back seat to the clear No. 1: "I was attracted to the person."
