Which is better, gaming or sex .Follow

You don't need to read it though, its only short . Here is the full content.

Quote:
1 in 3 British men would prefer to play video games than sleep with their partner, with 72% claiming they'd shun their missus for the night to play a new release.

From a study of 1130 British men, of those in relationships, 32% that said they would prefer to play video games gave reasons ranging from their "partner being hard to please" to the prospect being "not as much fun" as gaming.

Further cementing the sad truth about video game addiction in the British male, 41% said if they were given £50, they'd spend it on a video game.

The research was carried out by PlayStation3 site, www.PS3pricecompare.co.uk, a specialist independent price comparison website that claims it can help find the cheapest new consoles and games.


So, is this a true representation of the opinions of most gamers . Also, I noticed it didn't include the opinions of female gamers, which is a shame .

I'm female , and I'll be honest, I have in the past played blind to a partners attentions, not because I prefer gaming to sex, but because I was halfway through a difficult mission that had taken me quite some time to organise . In an ordinary situation, I would of course pick sex over gaming.

However, I also have a gamer boyfriend . Now, we don't live together, in fact, he lives a 5 hour train journey away . I often get turned down for skype calls and webcam nudity because he's playing in full screen - and you know what, I don't mind too much . I'm going to visit him tomorrow, and I fully expect him to be preoccupied with gaming at least some of the time (his latest obsession is warhammer, which sadly my PC won't run, so we can't play together) and I'm actually looking forward to attempting to distract him while he's playing in various ways, especially as he usually plays while in voice calls with other friends that play .

So, given the choice, gaming or sex ? Does it depend on what game you're playing, what kind of sex is on offer, or on the current situation in game ? I'm curious :)

Well, I'd just plan around video games. Play games during the afternoon, save alone time for night.

Games are better; this isn't even a hard choice.

I wouldn't ignore the needs of my partner just to play a game, because when you are in a relationship you have to make sacrifices for the other person, but if it was all about me, I'd go for the games every time.

Apparently I've given up sex for games before, although it wasn't a conscious choice. It's not my fault if she doesn't at least give me clues, or better yet just pounce on tell me Smiley: mad. I will say one of the best BJs I've gotten was while I was in the middle of a raid in WoW. In general, I would take sex over gaming... although the answer might be different if I got the sex a little more often Smiley: frown.

Also, I will gladly accept your webcam nudes when your bf is too busy. I might even reciprocate the favor if asked. Smiley: smile

Its a well known fact no women anywhere wants to have sex. Family Guy said so and TV doesn't lie.

As is the case for most recreational activities, it depends entirely on who you're doing it with and what accessories are involved.

I think the OP hit the mark in detailing the strict exceptions, such as not being interrupted at a critical moment or during an event that requires much organization.

Overall, sex wins without question.

Bonus points for gaming during sex.






Atari joystick goes where? Do what with that Nintendo light gun?

Receiving oral sex while gaming is quite awesome.

A) There were no women involved because there aren't any stereotypes of "girl gamers" to prove/disprove when it comes to sex.
B) Why is it a "Sad truth?" Are we all supposed to be out and about chasing *** like a bunch of high school kids?

Yes. In our oversexed media culture, if you're not trying to get laid constantly, there's something wrong with you.

I have not yet, however, heard of a taboo on yelling "Ding!" at climax.

If you hear your neighbor next door yell back "Grats!" there may be an issue, though.

Almost certainly. It was back in the MC days though... man, those were good times.

One time, when I was playing o-game, I blew off my hubbies advances. It was bad. I had to quit that game.

Typically I'd opt for sex over games, but there is usually enough time for both. When my husband actually played EQ with me, we didn't really cyber or anything, but we had some fore-play type fun with our avatars:D

This survey is just british men anyways. Hardly means anything;)

Well you don't get forced to pay child support for 18 years over a video game.

Yeah, but Ogame is different. I mean, if you don't do things at the right time, you can lose weeks or even months worth of work in minutes.

My current girlfriend talks about how she's been known to play FFVI and FFVII during sex. I think I'd have to stop if she tried that with me, it's just not...just no.


Seriously though, it's sad that that many people would pick a video game over sex.

I had a "discussion" with my boyfriend when I shoved him away when he wanted nookie time while I was in the middle of a BC fight. He was butthurt over it for a while, til I sat down and explained that if he's in the middle of a phone conversation with his mom or his best friend, I don't stick my boobs in his face.

Since then, the understanding has been that if one of us is involved in something that can't be stopped, like a timed BC or grading papers due in 2 hours, we'll put the brakes on romance temporarily. But if it's something where you can do a quick "brb ^_~" or hit the pause button or set the book down, nookie comes first.

I would totally want you sticking your boobs in my face, even if I was on the phone with a relative or friend. I do understand the timed BC fight though (although boobs in face would be ok there too as long as it wasn't obstructing vision). Smiley: smile

Speaking of, I'm really hoping nobody notices me over the next two days. I'm constructing the eleven thousand odd Solar Satellites I need to get Graviton tech. I have one thousand Plasma Turrets, along with thousands of everything else to hold off any would be profiteers. Hopefully being able to inflict twenty million damage per round is enough to keep them away.
