Is Fitting Into Old Jeans Better Than Sex?

December 30, 2009

A new survey from Special K cereal found that more than a quarter of British women think fitting into their "trophy" jeans again would feel better than sex. Another 11 percent said it would be better than a marriage proposal, and 28 percent said it would be better than a promotion. The other women said keep the jeans and give me the sex/marriage/promotion.

Since I'm a little suspect of the marketing motives behind the survey, I want to ask you all: is fitting into old jeans really better than sex?

I agree, they are different feelings. One is more emotional and the other is physical. I voted no.

Ha, I can have great sex any time I want (thanks to an always horny hubby), so I'd take the jeans! Now the promotion, would make me reconsider :-)

Hell, jean WAY better. Though my "trophy jeans" are from my anorexic days, so I'll probably never fit into them again, but if I could and be semi-heathy I'd take that over sex, promotions, money, love anything!

No, sex is always better or you're just having the wrong kind of sex.

Over the past year my weight has changed by 10 kg. Five up and five down. I STILL fit into my size 12 jeans. So gimme the sex! :D

I'm married and have sex whenever I want, so it takes a lot more effort to lose weight and fit into old pants than it takes to have sex. If it were fitting into old pants or meaningful relationship or fitting into pants or regular/frequent sex, I would have answered differently.

I said yes, but it is a conditional Yes. It's not better than WOW AMAZING sex. never no. But that first rush of "IT FITS!" is an amazing uplifting feeling for someone who has recently gained a lot of weight (ie: me) . also, I agree with MissSushi. it's such a long term goal that most people don't achieve (laziness or some other reason/excuse) that when you finally get there, it's really satisfying.

Extra 20 lbs or not, I can get sex quite easily. Maybe if the poll asked, 'meaningful relationship or jeans' I would have voted different.

I just fit back into my jeans from 3 years ago and I still prefer sex.

61% really? this women must be having pretty mediocre sex. How about both?

I've honestly never outgrown a pair of old jeans. I'm smaller than I was in high school.

The marketing aspect out of it... losing weight is a much more lengthy process that requires more work then a sexual session. It makes sense for a larger feeling of triumph to result..

I worked out enough to get back into my old jeans, so I'll just take the sex and the promotion, thanks.
