One-Third of Women Who Meet People Online Have Sex on First Date
It's confirmed: Online dating is the way to go if you're looking to get lucky. According to a recent survey published by the Sexuality Research and Social Policy research journal, one-third of women who meet people online have sex on the first date, and a whopping three-quarters of those surveyed do not use a condom. Meanwhile, a mere 27-percent engage in oral sex on the first day.
That's right, online dating is like grazing a lush field of sexually-transmitted diseases (STDs).
The high likelihood of sex on the first date is partially attributable to an increased comfort level. According to the survey, having extended or multiple conversations with a person online can decrease the tension and general awkwardness that accompanies a first date. The sense of familiarity not only increases the chances for intercourse, but it also will make a person more likely to cast off better judgment and go sans condom. That, and, of course, alcohol.
They neglected to mention that pretty much 100 percent of men will have sex on the first date -- if given the chance.
Okay, you can stop giggling now.

Only one -third? Tat sounds a little low to me. I have gone on many dates from the internet, and even though I say i am looking for a girlfriend, and not just a one night stand, these women come on like gangbusters. It is more the norm for them to have sex, than not. I would say that the number is somewhere between one half and two-thirds. SOme even plan it ahead, so no actual date is involved. They just come over and it's right to the bedroom..if you make it that far.
ANd many of these women, have husbands and kids at home, and will invite themselves over at any hour. Now, if they would bring a pizza and bread stix, they could put Dominoes out of business. Where else could you get all that for $12.99

Well, I guess that means 1/3 of men are having sex also. It is 2007 wake up America - women enjoy sex too.

Some of my on line conversations have been up to 4 hrs, that is longer than some dates. Chatting on the phone can last hours too. I consider those as a type of date, I read some where that date # 3 is the one where the guy talks the most,SOOO If we have emailed and chatted for hours upon end, you feel like you kind of KNOW them, Have I gotten burned? Yes,I am much wiser now. and still chat and date.............

Good grief, Leon...what the heck are you saying? Did anyone else make any sense of that? Sheesh!

90% of the women who go online to meet "some body" are losers who have a lot of baggage (ugly kids, a messed up life, drugs, alcohol, low sexual esteem, or All of the Above). What else do they have to offer? If they were desirable women, they wouldn't have time to go online to meet "some body." Men who seek these women out are jerks and/or losers themselves. Look around; there are women and men everywhere. Have some guts and introduce yourself. Remember when we used to call those losers "lonely hearts"?

Oh good God Lew.....you're kidding, right?? Get a life, man.

Whos surprised by this? and the 41% who said they haven't had sex on the first date; they are lying

If a woman has to go online to find a date, she's probobly a skank anyway and guys who go on line to find dates are all child molesters. Just watch Dateline NBC. What ever happened to the days of fun dating? Go to a bar, find some ho and get her drunk off her ass, take her to your car, screw her, kick her out. Go home to your wife.
Little Big Man @ Nov 12th 2007 3:32PM
The only loosers are those who are missing out on all of the fun :-)
Does'nt everyone like sex ?
I guess not ... what a lonely,boaring life those "loosers" must have!
virginiac1963 @ Nov 12th 2007 3:42PM
Guy, what a loser you are. There are intelligent, beautiful people out there who don't want to hang out in a bar, get wasted and screw in the back of a car with a jerk such as yourself. I think that you need to grow up......
comlbproductions @ Nov 12th 2007 3:43PM
I have to disagree with you all. I met the love of my life online and she is def not a skank or whatever. She just is a busy woman that doesn't like going out to smoky bars. We got to know each other pretty well online and from phone calls before we met. We may have wanted to have sex on the first date but we both knew how much we liked each other from the onset so we waited. Now our sex life is amazing as is our relationship. Thank you match.com!

to prinzess..."the 41% who said they haven't are lying"...excuse me? How do you know first of all, second of all, not everybody in the world sleeps with someone on the first date. I haven't...in fact i haven't had sex at all and i'm 21. I'm waiting. People do still wait you know.

I think more interesting than the statistics posted in comments about unprotected sex would be a distribution by age group. I think with the level of education provided the younger people entering the dating arena they might be more vigilant. I opine older people might think protection is for the youthful because we were not plagued with the magnitude and seriousness of the last couple decades of "SUPER" STDs.
Sex is great, an orgasm better, a mental connection the best. How does it make a female feel when her partner shows a little thing like making diner for her or a little hug, flowers delivered? How does it make the male feel when his partner makes his favorite meal and then gives him a hug when he does the dishes. It is a two way street. Withstanding the aforesaid we could easily exchange the typical gender comments above because I enjoy and did an equal amount of the cooking in my time.
Finally, to all the nay sayers about registered online daters, it does open a forum rather than a bar scene that if careful is much safer.

This is definitely on the list of a stupid things women do to hurt themselves.
I am an OB GYN doctor in a nice Florida suburb, and every week I see patients in my office who have contracted genital herpes and HPV/genital warts, both of which there is no cure for. Not to mention chlamydia and gonorrhea which can be treated but can ruin your fertility.
