iPhone users get more sex than Android fans When it comes to getting laid, put your Blackberry back in your hip holster and don't get caught touching an Android. The iPhone gets results. iPhone users are getting more sex then their counterparts on RIM or Google devices, with women iPhone users getting more action than their male counterparts. Women iPhone users are …
I realise that this is just some marketing puffery for an Internet dating site and not some peer-reviewed sociological research, but even so ...
1) This is based on users of said site, hardly a representative sample.
2) The headline should read: iPhone users (claim to) have more sexual *partners* - which may or may not equate to more sex.
3) And is based on number of partners by age 30 - whereas ownership of an iPhone can't possibly have extended over more than 3 years, and given the rate at which sales have been increasing, I'd guess the average is more like 12 months.
The only remarkable thing is that women are reporting more sexual partners than men, whereas almost every serious study shows the reverse result. Possibly this indicates tat the women who sign up for such sites are even more weird than the men that do ...
Seriously WTF?
Who fills in this bullshit.
Ok people fill in this questionaire.
Are you over 30?
If yes are you a Virgin?
If yes...Ha ha ha ha haaa you sad lonely wanker!
If NO, are you a hottie (get the boys / girls) or an ugly sad bastard (who get the 2am'ers once a year)?
Me I have had 200,000 sexual partners, a mixture of Air hostesses, models, pop stars and famous film actresses with the ocassional cheerleader and gymast thrown in. Guess that's becuase I have neither a ihype or an Andull.
.... due to their non-discrimination and low standards.... clearly they are willing to accept parners despite fundamental and critical flaws.
They think they have a deep and meaningful relationship with a truly commited partner... yet the painful truth is that they have formed an unhealthy attachment to an abusive & manipulative dominator.. who undermines their freedom whilst creating a dependence in order to provide a false sense of self worth.
Whereas.... my Android phone really does love me unconditionally.... as do Google..... only got my best interests at heart.
The user profile of these devices in the (IT) firm I work in would probably corroborate this - the more technical people who'd be stereotypically getting less anyway would be the main Android users, and the blondes in accounts and "morkeshing" all use iPhones...
I think the fact that iPhone users screw more probably has more to do with good looking fashion victim types buying the fashion statement who tend to get laid more than your average geek who wouldn't step foot in a night club if you poked them with a sharp stick, after all geeks aren't well known to be the "pretty" types.
Beers, cost everyone looks good after 10 pints.
shouldn't that be "iPhone users have more sexual partners than Android fans"?
There is quite a difference. Just because you sleep around, doesn't mean you get /more/ sex than some one who has /only/ had a couple of stable long term relationships, it just means you get sex with more people.
In my opinion, a better headline would have been "iPhone users put it about" but that's just my opinion.
{from an iPhone owner}
It's worth remembering that iPhone's are much more prevalent than Blackberries and Android devices and I'd be willing to bet that you could insert any statement and find that iPhone users get XYZ more than Android users *purely because there are more of them*.
"iPhone users steal more things than Android users"
"iPhone users indulge in necrophilia more often than Blackberry users"
wrt
"iPhone users indulge in necrophilia more often than Blackberry users"
Hmmm I don't know have you seen some of the corporate stiffs (pun intended!) with their crackberries? They died years ago but the Blackberry didn't receive that email...
Anyway back to the topic: If some lass at the bar start’s yapping on about how she has an Android phone i would back away as rapidly as I could without making any large movements!
Yep, yep I shall indeed grab my coat under a hail of abuse "sexist pig" etc..
More partners != more sex. Maybe all those iPhone users get through so many partners because those partners quickly get fed up with their iPhones users playing with their iPhones when they coould have been having sex.
Paris, because ... well, surely I don't have to spell it out.
iphone owning lady girls are sluts. at 12:10 they are sharing men, but it doesn't say that if it's in the same session or not.
Also it doesn't say what phone their partners had. I'm guessing they slept with people with an android phone so they had enough signal to call for a taxi afterwards.
With 12 sexual partners for ladies owning iphones, you could never accuse them of holding it wrong could you?
I actually believe that its because iphones have enough of a market to reflect societies average partners. I'm not sure what figure that is though so I might be wrong. Someone on here is bound to know though.
The "study", if we can call it that, measured the number of sexual partners NOT the frequency of sexual activity. More serious studies have shown that people in couples get more action than singles - if we can assume a certain delay between rupture with one partner and finding another then the more partners you've had, the less time you've spent in a relationship and thus the less sex you've had !! So the "study" would seem to show the opposite of what you suggest.
If anything this study shows that single women with iPhones on dating sites are more likely to drop their knickers and could thus be described as more slutty.
... of being part of that selfish elite.
I mean, you probably chose android for one of the popular reasons, viz :
Financial : You are poor
Ideological : You are tedious
You want to be able to SSH into your servers : You are REALLY fucking tedious
None of which are particularly attractive qualities when it comes to getting your end away, eh ?
Just read this with interest to see if anyone has commented on it already.
There are iPhone apps in the app store that let you find other iPhone users near you who are looking for an "encounter". Theres at least 2 or 3 which all share the concept of a thumbnail gallery of people's photos, in order of increasing distance and you're able to start instant message conversations with anyone.
I believe similar services/apps are being rolled out for Blackberry, WinMo and Android but iPhone was definitely the developer's priority and everyone i've gone to "share a coffee" with while out and about, through using the app has indeed been an iPhone user!
Anon, in case you might find me using the app!
