Facebook makes having sex easy

According to a new study published in the US journal Sexuality Research and Social Policy, a third of women who look to the internet for romance sleep with their prospective partners on a first date.

Amazingly, three quarters of those women do NOT use a condom, says the survey. 568 women were asked in total.

Editor of Womens Health magazine told news.com.au that the results were troubling. She reckons that folk feel more comfortable after having had lengthy conversations online, often through social networking, and so the higher rates of first-date sex arent all that surprising.

Romance hungry geeks are more likely to put out on the first night of meeting someone as opposed to women in general, who Felicity Percival of Womens Health says are sticking to the 12 date rule. The 12 vodka shots rule is a popular male alternative.
