It's often on my mind but every other minute is way too much. Though, when I do have sex on the mind it basically is the only thing on my mind.

It's a common topic, in fact it's been said many a time to me that the two most common themes in all literature are death and sex. In all honesty men do think about sex often as far as I know, but every other minute seems exaggerated, but I'm no neurologist so I have no idea if that's factual on some level of the male thought process.

We talk about it a lot, but only because it's a goldmine for humor. This is just my group of friends of course, I don't know about others.

I think about it maybe once a day, but I will admit I think of things that are in some way RELATED to sex on a somewhat more regular basis. But I'm a teenager, so what would you expect?

Well now I am.

Every other minute is a bit of an exaggeration (most of the time, anyway).

Every other hour is more accurate.
Quoted for truth. I mean, thinking about sex literally every other minute means that you should probably seek help. That degree of sexual fixation might indicate sex addiction.

But, uh... sex is definitely one of the topics at the forefront of our minds.

Or my mind, at least. >_>

So, "every other hour" actually sounds about right.

I keep getting the impression from these "men think about sex every 7 seconds" soundbites people come out with (also, wasn't it every 8 seconds, like a few years ago?), that by default men are sex crazed perverts with one track minds who will rape anyone or anything that's left unattended, man, woman, child, animal, vegetable or mineral. Maybe its just the people who say this, instead of this 'fact' itself.

But anyway, EVERYONE thinks about sex A LOT, and trying not to or flagellating yourself because of it will just screw you up.

What most people here are doing, is making the mistake of saying that they dont TALK about sex alot, buuuuut, not think, I'd say its about every 10 mins from what I've seen in my buds, and a bit of personal exp, i took the average I guess, considering some never do, and one in particular wont shut up..... But if this was supposed to be a scientific fact, think of it like this, they take averages, also, how many morons and jerks do you know/see that would be thinking about it all the time? that makes up most of the internets population. I wouldnt be surprised if thats the average they came up with

In fact, I was on a fairly good 5 hour streak there, 'till i saw this.

As a girl I originally just rolled my eyes when I heard this, but then i recalled back when I still rode the schoolbus and it really did seem that every conversation always looped back to sex or rape. The way I think of it, a person would have to be concentrating really hard on sex to actually think of it that often in a day but then again, I'm not a guy. What do you think about this?
It's not 'every other minute.' It's 'every other thought when the mind is idle.' Men are truly perverted creatures by nature, but if we weren't, the human race would be much fewer in number.

No, they don't. Consider it this way: You're in school, you only have one minute bouts of cohesion during a test...you're not getting that test done on time, and the longer questions are lost to you. That men would still keep up with women despite the handicap is either an incredible bout of mental power from men, or a constant lack of mental power from women. It's a sexist stereotype...I'll let you choose who's being demeaned by it.

It would mean men are basically big goldfish with legs. It's not true, just one of those 'facts' made to create false interest.

I may not actively think about sex but subconsciously i know its in there somewhere in the back of my brain. in high school and even to this day there are some days where i just have a boner for no reason more or less all day(no not like a Priapism, more of a half mast kind of thing)

Every other minute? No. Quite often? Yes.

Although oddly, the time you think of it least is just afterward. Those who have had it and are on a dry spell tend to, in my experience, think about it more than those who are in a stable and healthy sexual relationship.

It's an exaggeration, but men think about sex at the most random moments and it does happen quite often.

None of the guys I talk to talk about sex, it seems like a private matter to me. But I am not going to lie, some days its all I can think about. I hear women talk about it more too.
Thats how it is for me. Some days it doesn't cross my all day and others its stuck in my had like a catchy pop song.

in a vague way, i guess. One thing, as a guy, every time i first see/meet a girl, i can't help but evaluate in my head: Is this girl attractive, would i want to be in a relationship with this girl (regardless of either her or my own relationship status). I think that action is fairly normal for many guys, and we can't help it.

If you were to ask if we think about sex specifically, every other minute, then i would say no. if you were to ask if we think about things vaguely related to sex, such as sexual themes, attractiveness, female body, relationship stuff, etc, then i would say possibly.

But i can tell you, that I know plenty of female friends who i can say are probably more perverted-minded than me. i think it's mostly just stereotype of guys being the sexcrazed horndogs (not that all of us aren't like that, some guys are sexcrazed horndogs, but some girls are as well.)
