Dishonesty Rampant in the Bedroom

Men’s Fitness and Shape magazines have teamed up to bring us a survey revealing that men fake orgasms a surprisingly high amount of the time, women think most men are awful in bed, about 40 percent of both genders cheat, and other gems of human behavior.

In a survey of 10,000 people, the magazines found that a third of men have faked orgasms, women are much more willing to forgive infidelity than men (37 percent compared to 5 percent), and women find house chores sexier than gifts of jewelry, flowers, or chocolates.

Perhaps the most telling (and depressing) aspect of the survey is that 85 percent of men believe they please their partners every time they have sex. This is the same percentage of women who say they fake orgasms.

This survey makes me dream of a little something called honesty. Women, do you think he’s gonna get better in bed if you keep pretending you’re having a great time? And men, do you think your partner will never speak to you again if you occasionally can’t make it to what the New York Post so poetically terms the “finish line”? And how the heck do men fake orgasms anyway?
