Hey, Koreans Can Lie About Sex, Too!

by Robert Koehler on September 24, 2008

in Korean Society

In a survey of 6,000 Korean university students by an Ewha Womans University professor, four in ten said you could have sex without love.

Oh, and how ’bouts these numbers:

According to Ewha Womans University Prof. Shin Kyung-lim’s survey on 6,000 university students, in which 63 percent were male and 37 percent female, 50.3 percent of men and 17.6 percent of women said they have had sexual experiences.

And once a woman has fallen, she really falls:

Females apparently became more sexually active after having had their first experience. Of those female students with sex experiences, about 30 percent said they have sex every week and 13 percent more than three times a week. Some 1.2 percent said they had sex every day. Of males, 22 percent said they have sex every week and 7.6 percent three times a week.

“Some 1.2 percent said they had sex every day.” And that’s how they pay for tuition.

I keed! I keed!

No matter what country you are in, never trust the validity of a sex survey.
Even if it is anonymous, people still lie!

“In the past, a woman honoring her chastity was considered a virtue in this Confucian society. However, nowadays, more and more are being open to having premarital sex, saying it does not necessarily have to involve affection.”

What a mess. It’s the same as it’s always been. It’s still a virtue, always has been. A daughter’s fear of her father’s right to beat the living shit out of her without consequence is Confucian.

I think the rule is to divide the tally of sexual activity claimed by men by three and multiply that of women by three.

Females apparently became more sexually active after having had their first experience.

That’s funny, I always thought they were more sexually before their first experience.

#5 yes, the rule of 3 is a good way to judge the truth!

The so-called “Rule of Three” violates the Law of Conservation of Sexual Partners.

Without the rule of three, it would seem those ladies reporting to be sexually active are really spreading themselves around. I think perhaps, “paid for” sexual experiences may account for the guys’ reporting percentage ( that and false bravido ). Otherwise the guys may also be including sexual experiences they have had with their male friends ;)

You know this survey is faulty when it says 17.6% of females had sexual experiences. Are you kidding me? More like 71.6%.
