Scheduled sex might not sound exciting, but according to research, people who plan ahead have sizzling action
Clandestine encounters and one-night stands may sound steamy, but these spontaneous outbursts of passion don’t score points for many people. According to latest research, there is nothing sexier than forward planning when it comes to sex.
A study published in the Journal of Sex Research noted that scheduling a time and date in advance (and sticking to it) is the key to keeping the spark alive in the bedroom.
Researchers from Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany surveyed nearly 1,000 heterosexual couples about their sex lives. The questionnaire asked each person to rate things like how easily they got aroused, how inhibited they were around sex, and any issues they may have with sexual dysfunction.
The participants were also asked to rate both their own and their partner’s levels of personality framework: extraversion, openness to experience, conscientiousness, agreeableness and neuroticism. (known by psychologists as The Big Five). In the study, the researchers defined conscientiousness as being efficient and organised, rather than easy-going and spontaneous.
The study found that women who had partners with higher scores on conscientiousness experienced higher sexual function. “Men who are thorough and dutiful may feel the need to satisfy their partner sexually, which may in turn lead to better sexual function of their partners,” the researchers noted.
