- savvy187, on 03/29/2009, -12/+1171*fires up travelocity* So they're packs of ravenous, sexually starved women in New Zealand driving around?
- Haoie, on 03/29/2009, -1/+746I'm a kiwi, and I can confirm this is partially true.
They just forgot to mention the ugly factor and the STDs. - inactive, on 03/29/2009, -97/+648Alright, hate to be a spoil-sport, but I'm gonna up and say it - that kinda sucks, actually. If I just wanna get my jollies, I've got a right hand for that. Believe me, I know there's a difference between masturbation and sex, but the difference between a random hookup and actual meaningful sex is so much greater than the difference between masturbation and a random hookup. Maybe I'm weird that way, but I'm just not all that into sex for the sake of having sex.

- SaladCactusKing, on 03/29/2009, -2/+276I went on a blind date with a chick from New Zealand and I thought her accent was hot. It was, but it also masked her being 275 pounds.
Cest la vie. I hit it anyway. - inactive, on 03/29/2009, -0/+243dugg for fatcave

Older article on digg that talked about how New Zealand women have the largest average breast size

The Sunday Star-Times' Being a Bloke survey last year found that 29% of the 5000 men surveyed felt they had been pressured into having sex or had had sex unwillingly. (which essentially means men here are not taking full advantage)

Best Combination Ever, Im Moving Immediately - wild, on 03/29/2009, -42/+241I remember when I attached so much meaning to sex. There was a time when I swore up and down sex always meant more when it was with someone special and I was sharing this great and private moment. Love made sex SO much better.
That's all *****. The best sex of my life has come from a drunken night with a friend, a random hook up on a cruise ship, and a hate ***** with a professional rival.
A great ***** comes down to two people knowing what they are doing and being naked with what pleases them. The reason people think sex is better when it is with someone who means something to them is because they can be honest with each other about what they want. When you have enough sex you grow in confidence, and you can get people to do and try the most wonderful things.
The most satisfying thing about sex with someone you love is the before and after bits. That isn't the sex part though, thats the cuddling and caressing. When it comes to the actual act of sex, well, ***** my hand, it doesn't even come close. - jasonh1234, on 03/29/2009, -0/+190This article is brought to you by the NZ Board of Tourism
- jeexbit, on 03/29/2009, -3/+171"...are regularly getting drunk and cruising around in packs looking for men to have sex with."
We call it "college" here in the states. - footbag01, on 03/29/2009, -2/+167Probably planted by the New Zealand tourism bureau.

- bdbr, on 03/29/2009, -0/+127I'm with sivsta - large breast size, desperate for sex, and guys not wanting to have sex with them...sounds like fat chicks.
- anexanhume, on 03/29/2009, -7/+133My gosh, a mature, reasoned comment on the subject of sex that isn't buried into oblivion. Bravo sir, I most certainly concur.
- ByrcheWroot, on 03/29/2009, -1/+120This happens around The Shire on a nightly basis.
- inactive, on 03/29/2009, -0/+119Bleh. What a killjoy.

I bet you hit it with some sort of cactus am I right? Only logical explanation. - jwk4heels, on 03/29/2009, -0/+100"Digg Male user"? Isn't that redundant?
- Pilot85, on 03/29/2009, -1/+95They're here in the US too. I drive these nifty things called "Fun Buses" every once in a while. Basically, people get on, get blind drunk and make fools of themselves while I drive them around to local bars. Bachelorette parties were great fun, I thought. Drunk women always want to kiss the bus driver or sit on his lap.
Then came the puking.
:( - anexanhume, on 03/29/2009, -5/+97I feel that it is this kind of logic that puts us in precarious places across the board.
All meaningful human interaction is based on long-term relationships. Family, friends, business partners all have this in common. Normally, so do sexual relationships. The mentality of one-night stands is much more rooted in the quenching of base human desires than it is interacting with humans. In general, we frown upon these over-indulgences as a society. While a frequent drinker is harming no one else, we lament his behavior because it shows a regretful focus on the short-term indulgences of his body. His brain and conscience are removed from the equation. The fact another human is involved is a consequence of the desire, not an end in itself. This only feeds the objectification of the human body that is rampant in our society, which comes with its own perils.
Similar parallels can be drawn from the dangers of this type of behavior, the foremost being unwanted pregnancies and STDs. While some may argue abortion is a path to nullify the effects of bad decisions, it's generally agreed this is never a desirable course of action. STDs are a blight upon the human condition. Their effects and strains on societies would be all but mitigated through a culture of responsible, pre-screened sex. Using protection is a measure of security, but the method is never fail-safe. Moreover, an act of passion is an invitation to pass these safe-guards for the thrill of the moment. To compare these encounters to other human interactions-- do we hire a housing contractor because they make pretty houses, without knowing anything of their financials or actual workmanship? Do we choose a bank because they have funny commercials on TV? In few other instances do we engage in actions with such potentially harmful consequences for the sake of the act itself. We say it doesn't mean anything, but all the potential consequences say otherwise.
Because of this, sex is never just sex. While we may reason that mature adults can understand its not meant for the long term, for many, there is still the possibility of an emotional attachment. Studies have found that women who have had intercourse with the same partner multiple times actually enjoyed the sex more due to a combination of emotional and hormonal responses to the repeated partner. The act alone can be meaningful over the long term.
Finally, its not a sustainable habit for anyone save the rich and celebrities. It is an act of mutual vanity that cannot be sustained indefinitely. Eventually, all we have to mean anything to us are the long-term relationships we've forged. At least for me, sating indulgences for a good part of my youth is not worth trading a potential encounter with a person I'd like to spend the rest of my life with. There's no comparison.
While a man's life is his own, I cannot help but reflect on Socrate's words-- "The unexamined life is not worth living." To be human is to be able to move beyond our natural urges to ensure beneficial structure to the world. When it comes to indulgences, rarely does "What is good for the goose is good for the gander" ever apply. - anexanhume, on 03/29/2009, -31/+118This comment does not begin with and.

- pkon, on 03/29/2009, -6/+83Isn't this kind of a norm now around college campuses? I mean the New Zealand accent makes it that much hotter but go out on any typical weekend at a college town and you'll get the same kind of treatment.
Any damn look at that spike after this article found its way on digg haha.
