Sex and the Survey
For me the next best thing to having sex–or watching others having it on-line–is talking (and writing) about it. Comparing stories and sharing experiences can not only be entertaining and arousing but educational, too.
NOW magazine, the 25 year old Toronto-based (and Canada’s largest) alternative newsweekly recently unveiled its (5th, I believe) annual Love & Sex Survey on-line. Consisting of 50 questions about all things love and sex, according to the website the survey is “completely confidential, anonymous, and it’s fun.”
It’s true; I just finished filling it out. There’s a wide range of questions, from things like “What would be an appropriate porn star name for you?” (#43) to “Has anyone ever walked in on you while you were masturbating?”(#7) and “Have you ever had sex with someone a friend or partner has already been with?”(#28).
Questions are a welcome mix of multiple choice and open-ended ones but what makes this survey really user-friendly is that with the multiple choice questions, in addition to (or instead of) selecting one of the options there’s an “Anything to add?” feature. Sweet. So feel free to include your own comments for each and every question–once you’ve answered honestly, of course.
The survey is available to fill out from now until January 11, at which point all of the data is analyzed by NOW’s resident sexperts and the results revealed in NOW’s wildly popular Love & Sex Guide issue (which I believe hits the streets and is available on-line February 8, 2007).
So do it. And then do it.
Cheers,
S.R.
