Safe Sex and a Sedentery Life Style?
There have been a number of articles that say that if you live a sedentary life style your chances are 3 times greater dying after sex than if you live and active life style.
Risk of Dying After Sex by Life Style Type.
The way this is stated at the front of most articles, most people would imagine this charted as above.
While all that is absolutely true, what you have to dig to find is that for people with a sedentary lifestyle their chance of dying after sex is 3 in 1,000,000 vs. 1 in 1,000,000 for active people.
Let's chart that again!
Risk of Dying After Sex by Life Style Type.Yes. The active and sedentary values are charted - they are just so SMALL you can't even see them!
It's sorta like saying your chances of getting hit by lightning are greater than your chances of winning the lottery! WHO CARES? Neither one is likely to happen!
Here is a CNN article on the topic.
So, actually, if you live a sedentary life style, its pretty safe to have sex.
It won't likely kill you right away.
I would wager that the main reason people with a sedentary life style die more frequently right after sex than active people, is that they can't run as fast as the jealous significant other of their recent partner.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

Does it bother you when people use valid charts and numbers to mislead?

Either way, I'd rather die after sex than before.
You do realize that statistics on the internet are all made up, right. Abraham Lincoln said that, many many years ago. uh huh, yep, sure did.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
haha, the safe sex picture cracked me up!
Heyyyy, nice profile pic. So what means did these three people die from? Heart attack? Were they obese? And I second what @Roadkill_Spatula - said. What a shame it would be if I died before I got off.
@Roadkill_Spatula - Yeah!
@olwd - Yeah! And I am a french model!
@Megabyyte - You are a safe cracker?
@MomWithoutaMinivan - Yeah! Premature expiration would be no fun at all!
@Donkey_Guy_10 - haha, yes, yes I am! So you better watch your marbles!
"premature expiration", haha. You are too much.
Oh mu sherie. LOL, no idea how to spell that one.
well damn. does that mean the person had to have orgasmed?
That's nice, Dear!

Hahaha
Well then, it's a good thing I live an active lifestyle huh!
Die in the middle and they have to take the man's unmentionables out of her unmentionables.... No thanks! After is always better because you know you've got yours but she didn't... She could be pissed because she didn't get hers and what does it matter any way she can't kill you, you're already dead! /rim shot
I'll be here all night, folks
Is it possible that the statistics are skewed because the sedentary people are having more sex? I mean, the active people are out running and biking and stuff. They have no time for sex, so of course they're less likely to die after having it.
Oh, it's true. Sex can kill. I knew a rich 80 year old American man who married a 26 year old Brazilian woman, and at the wedding reception they warned him in no uncertain words SEX CAN KILL. to which he replied: "Well, if she dies, she dies!"
'Sedentery'? You Americans are true GENIUSES, yes?
But isn't sex an active event? So what if the sedentary person just has a lot of sex? Then are they safe?
These are important questions.
yes,we learned all that in Civics class-how charts and polls can be used either way
Really as long as sex is being had, there are no losers in either circumstance.
The more sex you have the more active you are, thus the less likely you are to die after sex, however the more sex you have the greater the odds that you will die after having sex. Of course the less sex you have the less likely you will die after having sex, and the less sex you have the less active you are likely to be, so.... Ummm... What was the question again?
I workout and don't get any. I'm going to live forever.
