A new study conducted by the dating site Match.com found that self-described single, conservative Republicans are more likely to achieve orgasm during sex than partisans of any other political persuasion.

Liberal Democrats were those least likely to experience fulfilling sexual intimacy, although they reportedly have more frequent sex than their conservative counterparts.

The "Single in America Study" polled 5,000 individuals and found that 53 percent of single conservative Republicans are likely to achieve orgasm during sex, compared with 40 percent of liberal Democrats.

However, conservative Republicans had less sex over the past 12 months than any other group polled in the survey. They were also the most likely to have never had sex.

The study was commissioned by match.com in conjunction with Dr. Laura Berman and biological anthropologist Dr. Helen Fisher.

Some other interesting sociological findings from the study:

Liberal Democrats are more likely to seek out a partner with a sense of humor, a sense of independence, someone they consider their equal and someone who shares a comparable lifestyle.

Conversely, conservative Republicans make similarly reserved choices in their mates, opting for someone with a comparable background and political affiliation who is interested in marriage.

Attitudes about sexual activity also seemed to reflect the larger political stereotypes associated with each group. For example, Republicans were the most likely to report enjoying sex in a married relationship (40 percent). Democrats were the most likely to enjoy sex in a committed but unmarried relationship (48 percent) or living together (36 percent). And those free-wheeling libertarians are most likely to enjoy a "casual hook-up" (46 percent).

And while Republicans seem to change their preference for a political candidate each week, it's Democrats (65 percent) and registered Libertarians (66 percent) who are willing to have a one-night stand, as opposed to 49 percent of Republican respondents.

Did they adjust properly for gender?

No way homo sex is better than straight sex.

Conservative Republicans are liars.  What else is new?

You can tell it's an election year by the number of nonsense 'news' articles whose titles include the words 'Democrat' and 'Republican'.

I wonder why liberal democrats are less likely to report reaching climax while having sex although I guess it might make sense if as Peter suggests, they didn't control for gender.

I am: bringing down the average.

For the first thing, I mean.

If you only had sex once a year, you'd reach orgasm every time too.

If you only had sex once a year, you'd reach orgasm every time too.

That's actually a misnomer.

[Ed Anger]

Or you can ignore politics and have frequent, good sex.

If you only had sex once a year, you'd reach orgasm every time too.

I think we should leave Santa Claus out of this discussion

I don't understand why one would want to have lots of sex without an orgasm.

I don't understand why one would want to have lots of sex without an orgasm.

Or any, really, unless you're just a very nice person.
