[STUDY] Sexual Traits: Dominance, Extreme Warmth, and/or Extreme Cold

"...they were able to confirm that dominance is a key trait of people who have a lot of sexual partners. They also found that people who are either extremely warm or extremely cold toward others tend to be promiscuous — and that people who are just moderately warm have the fewest sexual partners..."

In my current sleep deprived state running on fumes and sleep exhaustion euphoria, I ran across this article for your enlightenment and consumption.

Bottom line, in order to become the man-slut you know you want to be, you have to dominant and you have to be either extremely friendly or extremely standoffish. Moderately lukewarm, safe, and nice doesn't cut it.

You can see this in the various Seducer Archetypes described in Robert Greene's book "The Art of Seduction." You've got the Badboy and Ideal Lover who personify dominance. And then you have the Natural and Charmer who personify Extreme Warmth or you have the Charismatic and/or Rockstar who are standoffish and Cold.

You can even see it in the various different styles and schools of seduction out there. Well, read on!

Who's sleeping around? Scientists can tell
Friendly folks, seemingly cold fish have the most sex partners, study says

By Melinda Wenner
People who are socially dominant and either very friendly or very antagonistic tend to be more sexually promiscuous, according to a new study.

Friendly, warm people may enjoy sharing their warmth with others by sleeping with them, whereas antagonistic people may sleep around to avoid having a monogamous relationship. And having a dominant personality makes it easier to approach potential partners.

Past studies have suggested that people who are dominant tend to have more sexual partners than people who are submissive, but there has been little research into whether a person’s level of interpersonal warmth — the way in which they interact with others — affects their sexual actions.

So Patrick Markey, a psychologist at Villanova University, and his wife Charlotte Markey, a psychologist at Rutgers University, asked 210 adults to take a test to measure their interpersonal characteristics. They also asked the subjects to indicate with how many people they had engaged in certain sexual activities...

When they compared the subjects’ responses, they were able to confirm that dominance is a key trait of people who have a lot of sexual partners. They also found that people who are either extremely warm or extremely cold toward others tend to be promiscuous — and that people who are just moderately warm have the fewest sexual partners.

Antagonistic people might prefer to have multiple sex partners in order to avoid being in a monogamous relationship, out of fear of being poorly treated or being later rejected by a committed partner, the authors noted in their study, which is to be published in the Journal of Research in Personality.

Patrick Markey says it’s particularly interesting that warm people tend to be promiscuous, because in some ways, it conflicts with the moral thinking that promiscuity is bad.

While sleeping with multiple partners certainly carries with it certain health risks, “it could be that someone’s not doing it to achieve the most pleasure. Someone actually might be doing it as an expression of their warmth to other people,” he told LiveScience. “A warm person might hug lots of people; a warm person might kiss lots of people. Well, maybe a warm person might sleep with lots of people.”
