ok so im just going out on a limb here but arent quick reflexes used in EVERY MAJOR SPORT? So this means that every athlete P.E.'s wow great study and even better for those of you idiots that think this is even close to credable.
Poll: Good gamer=bad in bed (scientifically proven!)

i'm sorry that is utter bullshit... you cannot make scientific tests that would prove such things.....
Im good at FPS, in fact it's my fav genre.
And I dont have a PE problem, in fact the only problem i've ever had (only on a few occassions) was the exact opposite.

i am a fantastic gamer, i have been playing since i was about 2 years old, and my last girlfriend seemed to like it...and the sex to, i didn't want to do it as may times as she did, i wanted to play on my games but she wanted sex, maybe why we split up, but back on course, trust me your science is bad
I honestly love how many people like to post 'I'm glad I suck at *Insert FPS title here*!'
Classic.
Well I'm Dutch (By heritage) and I'm pretty good at FPS games (Not the best, but I can hold my own) and my wife is satisfied. So I say this study is crap in a can.

Haha, that's hysterical. It's almost as bad as that idea that masturbating causes deafness.
"Scientific proof" like this, to me, always smacks of some sort of limp-wristed attempt to dissuade people from doing things that society thinks is bad, whether it actually is or not. In this case, the "video games maekz people violent!!!111" argument isn't working, so why not try threatening a terrible sex life to everyone who continues to have more fun with their P90s than their P1s anyway? (Argh, terrible pun. Shank to self.)
Though I have to wonder if the leaderboards are taking hits.

Don't blame the scientists guys.
Remember that the news cycle is the exact opposite of good science.
Media: Something weird happened!!!! WOOOAAAHHH report that!!!
Science: I noticed something weird! Cool, lets spend a couple of months testing this observation and then get other people to recreate the tests with larger groups.
10 minutes later:
Media: What was that we just posted online? Fuck me i don't know
Several months later a scientific consensus is reached....it put in the middle pages of one crap news aggregate if its lucky.
If any other labs see enough worth in this pilot study to recreate the experiment with more people or with a more diverse group and slightly different criteria to fine tune the test then we might learn something, right now if might as well say homeopathy had a positive effect on 1 of the 200 people. Useless.
Anyways, I'm distinctly average at first person shooters..........

It's not my fault I suck at Halo.
There is a perfectly rational explanation for this. Guys with premature ejaculation are spending less time on the job with their significant other and more time taking out their frustrations on a FPS, so of course they are going to be good at it. Hand me that science degree.
The day I give up sex for Halo is the day I check myself in to a psych hospital as I'll have officially lost touch with reality.

in the words of dave chappelle, "it's never premature, to me it always feels right on time." this article kind of feels bogus, you may have fast reflexes, but let's not forget you need hand-eye coordination. which can help you with the ladies as well. so this article is a fail. funny though.
