Who wants to screw a writer? Anyway, this study was for “creative artists and poets,” but I don’t really think it’s much of a stretch to include prose writers. This strikes me as odd, since, you know (leans in forward to whisper) we writers aren’t always the most desirable of the bunch. And not just physically, either; do you really want to spend a night out on the town discussing funny headlines, inverted pyramid style writing and why the AP style for the word website is stupid? The study states that creative people and poets surveyed had an average of 4 to 10 sexual partners since 18, compared to 3 for the ‘average’ person. The researchers surmised that there could be more exploration for the creative person and that the more creative the person, the more partners he or she had. (This latter statement seems to be coming from someone with a Ph.D. in bullshit.) I, of course, though encourage this stereotype as writers and artists as wild sexual creatures. In fact, you might want to spread it around. Yeah, go ahead. Make sure to add “especially bloggers” at the end of anything good you say. Please? Creative Spark Fuels Active Sex Life [NBC 10] |
