Do men who do more chores have more sex?

You might think men who help out a lot around the house would have better sex lives – but that’s not always the case...

A new study is suggesting that the men who do the most day-to-day housework are having the least sex. Chores on the libido-lowering list included cooking, cleaning, laundry and shopping. Sabino Kornrich, lead author of the study, says gender roles play a big part in their findings. Relationships in which those roles are well-defined typically have more passion and payoff in the intimacy department.

That doesn’t mean men are off the hook from helping out. The study also found that men who regularly participate in masculine tasks around the house are having the most sex. Those chores include yard work, paying the bills and auto maintenance.
