Rich Men Better In Bed?

The size of a man's income influences his ability to please a woman in bed.

According to an article in the London Times Online, men who rake in the cheddar are also excellent at bringing home the orgasms.

(We've always thought aggressive boardroom behavior could translate into the bedroom. Alas, we could never keep a straight face with all those nauseating Donald-Trumps-in-training.)

Researchers surveyed 5,000 women across China and asked them questions about income, their partner's income and how happy they are with their sex lives. As it turns out, women who are involved with wealthy men report having more orgasms than those coupled up with middle class guys.

“We found that increasing partner income had a highly positive effect on women's self-reported frequency of orgasm. More desirable mates cause women to experience more orgasms," said Dr. Thomas Pollet, academic at the University of Newcastle.

Why could this be? Visions of paid European vacations? The carnal celebration of never splitting the check or paying for the cab? Designer Luxor Linen Egyptian cotton sheets?

"Women don't want to lie back and think of the gas bill...It's a lot more fun to have sex in the Ritz than the Swindon Travelodge. And to be ripping off Rigby & Peller underwear than M&S knickers," says "Cassie," a particularly guileless British women/ rich man lover, who thinks it's absurd to date someone who doesn't have "lots of money."

Logically, it doesn't seem that a healthy bank statement would travel south and make other parts more, uh, sizable, but scientists seem to think the old cliche of women flocking to well-off men is just as much a hard-wired truism as men flocking to large breasts. We're at all times on the hunt for a mate with the "best genes."

"Women's capacity for orgasm could be an evolutionary adaptation that serves to discriminate between males on the basis of their quality," said Pollet. "If so, then it should be more frequent in females paired with high-quality males."

So our finicky orgasmic past is just another Discovery Channel special in motion? Ugh.

So instead of doling out orgasms willy nilly like men, we're picky and only come when we're with a "high quality male."

That's one way of looking at it.

Evolutionary Darwinism, the cause and solution to all of life's problems.

Can you relate?

I think men with money will try harder in the bedroom and oher areas when a woman is unimpressed with his wealth. Yes, my guy pays for dinner and movies, and gifts, but I certainly don't ask him to and I try to avoid it when I can. I don't ask him for things and he knows things don't really excite me unless I get them for myself. So, he knows he has to meet me on a different level and I feel like he understands that even though I don't have much in the bank, his money means nothing to me. Maybe he's showing his appreciation by blowing my mind in the bedroom... maybe...

Mmm, I don't know about this. From my personal experience, the richer a guy is, the less he tries and the worse the sex is. I think they often feel as though their salary will make up for what their c***s don't do, but it doesn't really work like that. I've found that men who aren't so wrapped up in their money work to please the woman better, giving her better orgasms.

I don't expect a man to give me his money because I make my own money. Maybe that's why I have such good orgasms ;-)

Hmmm . . . I would have thought the opposite were true (i.e. rich guy expects to be catered to so you better be good in bed). Of course the whole 'date a rich man' thing really disgusts me. While not rich I do make an excellent salary and I don't think about the money unless the woman I'm with does. It becomes an issue when its expected that I pay for everything because, afterall I can afford it. I DO spread it around and enjoy lavishing but when its expected its a real turnoff. Women who target strictly wealthy men as dating mates are no more than social working girls in my opinion.
