[whitespace] Sex Survey Results

Oh, yes: Oaklanders are HOT!

By Traci Vogel

SEX. For a tiny little three-letter word, it sure gets people riled up. In the past month, Urbanview has been bombarded with letters, emails, catalogues, outraged phone calls, more outraged phone calls.

Yes, let the record show that Urbanview has gotten more sex this past month than a monkey has uncles. Refusing to be sidetracked, however, and tirelessly dedicated to our purely anthropological research, Urbanview's hardworking staff tallied every one of the hundreds and hundreds of sex surveys arriving daily, and a single overwhelming fact has surfaced: repetitive stress injury is no joke. That, and what was the other thing? Oh, yes: Oaklanders are HOT! Hot for sex toys, hot for internet porn, and hot for one another in every way, from every angle, and with or without their mother's permission.

We compiled your answers, your questions, and your votes for Sexiest People, in this first-ever Urbanview Sex Overview Kinda Thingy (USOKT). The results may be shocking. They may be revolutionary. They may prove to you that aliens exist. Or they may simply reinforce that lovely Mop-Top truism: all you need is love. And what could be more timely than that?

--Happy Valentine's Day, from Urbanview!




The Missionary Position

Gender: Of all respondents, 48% gazed deep into themselves and identified as male, 48% as female, and 4% were unable, or unwilling, to identify their gender.

Sexual Orientation: Sexual orientation was obscured a little because a full 31% of women said they masturbated more than they had actual sexual intercourse, as did a full 38% of men. 62% of both males and females, however, did shout out as heterosexual, and 8% as gay. A negligible 2.3%, both male and female, called themselves bisexual.

Age: 16% of the respondents were between 18 and 24 years old. 45% were 25 to 34, 27% were 35 to 44, and 12% were 45-64. Also, 0% of the respondents were under 18, so call off the lawyers.

Political Affiliation: Predictably, the majority -- 48% -- of the respondents were Democrats. A spirited 22% identified as Green Party; and an even 4% signed on as Republican, Libertarian, Communist, and Independent. 11% politically identified as Other, all of whom were women.
