Readiness for sex
Many young women and men - at some time or another - wonder if they are ready to have sex. And it's not just a one-time thought! Even when two people decide to be sexual together, they may have second thoughts about whether to have sex another time. Then there's the issue of finding a new partner. Even people who have been sexually active for years often ask themselves, when dating a new person, whether this is someone they want to be sexual with, or when they want to be sexual with that person (or how).
It's a tale as old as time: a man wants a shallow, beautiful, "easy" woman instead of a nice, respectful woman with brains. Right? That's what I thought. But according to a new study conducted right here at The Kinsey Institute, this tale is just a stereotype.
A new study conducted right here at IU has revealed that most of us probably aren't as sexually-savvy as we had thought. The study, called "The untrained eye: Confusing sexual interest with friendliness", suggests that "college-age men confuse friendly non-verbal cues with cues for sexual interest because the men have a less discerning eye than women".
