Games Industry dot biz recently posted a press release from Gametart.com (the largest online games rental company in the UK) claiming that according to a study they conducted, women who play video games have more sex than women who do not. They found that female gamers have sex an average of 4.3 times a week while non-gamers have sex 3.2 times a week.

As the Internet's leader in ackowledging female gamers (and not cowering away from them in terror), Destructoid remains unsurprised by these findings. Many of our female gamer friends have often been described as "Sex Kittens", "Sex Minxes", "Sex Orangutans" and all manner of other sexually charged wildlife. We applaud Gametart for embarking on, what one can be assured must be, valid scientific study based on this hypothesis, and we eagerly await further study in the field of "joysticks + ovaries = mad secks".

I'm sure the comments below will be a haven for enlightening, thought-provoking discussion, only rivalled by the French salons of the 19th century, but before you all start posting stories of "that one girl you met at the LAN center who could tie CAT5 cables into a perfect knot with her tongue", I must ask; if female gamers are having so much sex, who are they having the sex with? Have stereotypes failed me yet again?

I'm going to my room for a good, long cry now.
