News What’s Better than Sex?
posted by February 6 at 14:41 PM
onNew clothes—at least according to the ladies! Don’t believe me? Well, surely you’ll take the word of an impartial, altruistic consumer goods giant!
For most women, the choice between sex and a new wardrobe is simple—they go for the clothes.Women on average say they would be willing to give up sex for 15 months for a closet full of new apparel, with 2 percent ready to abstain from sex for three years in exchange for new duds, according to a new survey of about 1,000 women in 10 U.S. cities.
Sixty-one percent of women polled said it would be worse to lose their favorite article of clothing than give up sex for a month…. Almost three-quarters of respondents, or 70 percent, also said they believed in love at first sight when it came to finding the perfect article of clothing, while only 54 percent of women were as confident in spotting the right man.
Nearly half of the women, or 48 percent, taking part in the survey by consumer products giant Unilever said their favorite article of clothing was more reliable than their man in giving them confidence and making them feel sexy.
The only person quoted in the story? That noted expert on women, Carson Kressley from “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.”

Well, it depends on the man.
I believe the article up till the last paragraph.
Though many a woman might be willing to give up the sex for the clothes, they aren't willing to give up the man altogether.
FIFTEEN MONTHS??!! I agree a new outfit is nice but fifteen months is just an unreasonable amount of time. I'd rather have bad sex in 15 months than none.
What kind of assholes are these women with? I guess I'm luckier than I thought.
SEX SEX SEX!
Some women have awful lives I guess.
Poor honeys.
The only one I believe there is the love at first sight one. Obviously, if you see a shirt you like, well, that's all there is to it. If you see a man you think you like, you still have to get to know his personality, etc.
Incidentally, do these comment boxes flash back and forth between white and pink for anyone else?
It definitely depends on the man. Give up sex in general for fifteen months? Forget about it. Give up sex with my most recent ex-boyfriend? Yes, please.
I'd NEVER give up my man, but I'd give up sex for a new wardrobe in the blink of an eye, depending of course on the clothing involved. I wouldn't give it up for Old Navy or J. Crew, but for Yves St. Laurent or Lanvin? Hell to the yes.
Am I a woman?
Womanly?
i'd give up sex for a kick ass wardrobe. i wouldn't break up with my boyfriend for it though. we wear about the same size, so we could share!
Wormanly.
I'd give up my entire fucking wardrobe for a little sex. It's like crying cause you have no shoes and then meeting a man who has no feet.
I'd give up sex for a new wardrobe and then cheat on the wardrobe and have sex anyways.
#12: Now *that's* womanly.
LOLOL @12 See...any intelligent woman would know that's the way to go.
posterg@10 -- Hah! That's it. @11+ A sex-havin' woman would be happy enough that her man owns enough showers and clean changes of clothes.
Shit, I'm not having sex now. I'd take a wardrode, at least some good would come of it. If I were in a relationship it might be a different story.
What kind of wardrobe are we talking about here? If we're talking about J.C. Penney, forget it. On the other hand, if we're talking custom-designed and fitted garments...hmm...deals could possibly be made.
And I thought nice clothes were just a strategy to get laid.
