I'd say it's pretty rare that the sight of your SO's hand deep in the toilet, scrubbing away stains is a turn-on. But
according to studies, the more housework you do, the more often you're likely to have sex with your SO.
It all boils down to a "work hard, play hard" attitude. The study also links paid work and a high frequency of sex. Who knew? We all thought it was the other way around. Apparently, the more energy you put into one activity, the more energy you'll put into another.... and in this case, the horizontal tango.
Do you work hard and play hard? Can you see how this would be true? Or do you call this studies bluff?

Do I need to walk around with a giant glittery sign that says "correlation does not imply causation"? I think I do.
hahahahhah. my boyfriend is OCD with his cleaning. and so am i.
xo
but if you're too busy having sex, you won't have time to do the housework.....
@OngishLyOngLee@xanga - Housework sex ;)
It sounds reasonable. Sex is great for relaxing and relieving stress. You work hard, get all stressed up, and have amazing and more sex. BAM!
I agree with it totally. When my bf and I started having sex, I told him that the more housework he did, the more sex he would get. I don't why I'm that way. It's just my general rule of thumb. LOL
I've learned that with married couples, if the husband does more housework, he has a greater chance of having sex in the near future.
If the two things are related at all, I think it's because it shows you care. You clean to help your partner out, you have sex because you care about your partner... Maybe that's just how it works in my head.
I dont know, personally, we have plenty of sex whether the house is clean, or not.
lol..
I would think you'd be all tired after cleaning up the house, rather than frisky. XD
i'm on the fence about this, i work hard and play hard but after i clean, i don't want to do anything but just relax. usually because if i'm cleaning, he pissed me off and to relieve my stress, i clean the house from top to bottom.
I wouldn't know, we have help for the housework.
As far as sex, my loving wife is post menopausal and her sex switch is in the "off" position. She has been sweet and allowed me open relationships if I have needs. I find sex keeps me feeling younger and I don't mind doing home improvement projects and maintenance. Around our place thats my half of the responsibility.

I do both.
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - hahahahaahahahahahhaahha!
Agreed. (:
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - Hah, I'm in a statistics class right now..and I hear that alllllllllllll the time. It's like the motto of stats.
Sometimes I overdo it with the housework and my back hurts and I feel like sex wouldn't help matters any. However, if my husband does anything, I feel so cared for and I want to express my love by getting intimate!
Sometimes the house is just a mess, though, and we still do it a lot. I don't think it matters so much.
i feel this is true sometimes. its that feeling of an accomplishment...evrything ran smooth and u get evrything done you're supposed to and you have that energy to tackle anything
I found this to be true. If I clean the whole apartment me and my S.O live in, I get pounced as soon as he walks in the door. I asked him afterwards what that was all about and he said that it just makes him happy to see a clean house. ow o;;
builds stamina xD
I like to keep the house clean from time to time. My SO is a little messy, so I usually clean things after her. It's not bad because it gives me a reason to clean it up instead of procrastinating (which I am a god at)
I clean, I cook, I do the laundry. She might sneak attack from the behind with a "proposition" that might require more cleaning after we are done though ^_^
I did notice that two weeks with me doing very little at my house would lead to less sex while me doing the dishes, cooking dinner, and laundry led to more sex. Is it because she's less stressed out? Is it because she has more time now (more time for sex)? I actually like to do the housework as well as bring the bread home, so it's a win-win for me
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - what? that's like being a walking billboard...i like it!!!
YES, my SO works hard on everything, not just schoolwork. he may not LIKE to do everything (especially not chores) but i thought it was really sweet when he decided to do the dishes after dinner a few times - the sight of him in a wifebeater scrubbing all those dirty plates and filling up the sink with mounds of bubbles definitely turned me on. needless to say, there wasn't much dishwashing to be done after 5 minutes of me starring at his muscular arms. my roommate complained the next day that there was STILL a mess in the kitchen - and my SO turned beet red, LOL <3
@salvatruca_stalking_havok13@xanga - lol!
@NonnieGirl@xanga - LOL ill have to try that next time. (just to get him to work)
