The Call Of The Booty

Science, today you have outdone yourself. Researchers from the University of West Florida have concluded that booty calls “are marked by less emotion than long-term partnerships but more sexual variety than one-night stands.” I KNOW, RIGHT? It gets better!

The team found that overall, emotional acts were less common in booty-call relationships compared with serious long-term relationships. On the other hand, sex acts were more common in booty-call relationships than in one-night stands, probably because the reoccurring nature of booty calls means more time for trying new things, the researchers suspect.

Also! “Some of [study leader Peter] Jonason’s other research suggests that booty-call relationships often end when one partner pushes the other for something more committed than casual sex. Avoiding conversation and leaving right after sex can prevent those emotional bonds from forming.” It is both important research and a handy how-to all in one! God, this totally made my day.
