Creative people 'luckier in love'

[Hunter]

Most people I know that have had a lot of sex partners also have stds and spend most of their time drinking, doing drugs and basicly doing nothing artistic except inventing more BS for them to pick up more partners. I think someone should define 'artist' because I know a lot of people that walk the walk, talk the talk, but don't do a damn thing!

Sounds like a few of my friends!

The more creative a person is, the more sexual partners they are likely to have, UK investigators have found.

Well THATS why I'm not getting any ass, I keep making that damn eurotrance music.....

ive never suffered from an std not even crabs
some of em may have been ugly bt they were all clean ffs
as for the artist terminology hmmm ive never "achieved" but i know people who consider me an artist,whether the women i spent time with knew that or not is the point,and in most cases its a no,i dont tend to walk around with a sign stating "i am an artist" so i think that might upset the statistics too somehow

I think the premise is flawed; how exactly is it 'luckier' to not be able to get a regular shag without having to hunt someone new down?

The premise is more than flawed. I could just as easily say that creative people tend to be far more neurotic (and maybe erotic?) than those who are not as creative -- whatever that means. There is evidence that creative geniuses tend to exhibit distinctly quirky characteristics. Getting shagged at a statistically greater rate may be an indicator of other issues.
