The other day I received the following in my email about how much men masturbate. The problem with the math, as you will see, is that it divides the week up into rigid 10 minute periods. Anyway, I was wondering what the correct way to solve the problem is:
"According too the well known ‘Kinsey Report’ On: “Sexual
Behavior In The Human Male” 98% of males (including married
men) admitted to masturbating.
Average: 3 times per week. (and,… 85% admitted premarital
sex; 50% admitted adultery)
Given consideration to the current male population:
Current population - 134,349,027 MEN in the United States
according to: (www.census.gov 7PM-EST 02/01/2000)
Lets Consider This:
It takes at least ten minutes (on average) for a man to
masturbate.
Help Me Do The Numbers Here:
134,349,027 men in the United States X 3 wack-offs/week
= 403,047,081 wack-offs/week
6 ten-minute-periods/hour X 24hours/day X 7days/week
= 1,008 ten-minute-periods/week
403,047,081 wack-offs/week / 1,008 ten-minute-periods/week
= 399,848 wack-offs/ten-minute-period
399,848 wack-offs/ten-minute-period X 98% (Kinsey Factor)
= 391,851 wack-offs/ten-minute-period
And So the Conclusion it:
At any given moment (on average), 391,851 men in the United
States are wacking-off."
