Wine-drinking women have better sex
Time to head down to the pub - women who drink wine have better sex lives, according to a new study.
The poll of Tuscan women found that one or two glasses a day could boost levels of sexual satisfaction in the bedroom.

Experts from the University of Florence, Italy, used the Female Sexual Function Index - which is used by doctors to assess women and sexual health.

They found that the drinkers they quizzed at Santa Maria Annunziata Hospital scored higher than those who were teetotal.

The score is determined using factors including sexual arousal, orgasm, satisfaction and pain.

It ranges between two and 36, with higher scores meaning better sexual health.

In total, women who drank two glasses a day scored an average of 27.3 points.

Those who downed just one glass scored 25.9 while non-drinkers just 24.4.

The study's lead author, Dr Nicola Mondaini told The Daily Mail: "Historically, the aspects of wine and sexuality have been well known since the time of Ancient Greece."

"But the field of female sexual dysfunction is still highly unexplored."

The findings will be published in October in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

1. well, for sure I'm way off the curve on this one,
but only because you can't measure what you don't have.

2. Alcohol is not my friend.
I usually get pissy if I drink. Now pot, that is the ticket. I'd love to see the study on that.
You know that might be the talking point for legalization, with all the bombardment of erection enhancing drugs, I think if pot could be marketed in this fashion, as a female arousal enhancer we might get it before our Public Option. Congress might even come back early from their recess!!!

18. Yes. They can't remember if they had great sex or not.
But they do know they had sex.

11. I prefer a woman who wines to a woman who whines
A guy has to draw the line somewhere.

12. Unless the sex occurs within 15 minutes of my wife finishing her wine, she's asleep.
And she wakes up with a horrible headache. I don't want her to correlate that with the sex :/

13. Isn't red wine still linked to better overall heart health
or has that gone the way of margarine and fat-free oreos?
