"   Here&amp;#039;s something we didn&amp;#039;t expect: New research shows that casual sex is just as good for you mentally as having sex when you&amp;#039;re in a relationship.  The Journal of Sex Research recently published a study suggesting that the positive short-term effects of sex are the same in and out of relationships. So, even without Mr. Right in the picture, sex still makes you feel awesome. The scientists conducting the study set out to show that girls had bad feelings about sex outside of relationships (vs. doing it when they&amp;#039;re in one), and viewed casual sex more negatively than guys did. Guess what? They were proven wrong. According to the study, sex made women feel physically satisfied nearly 93 percent of the time, feel a thrill or rush 78 percent of the time, and feel better or cheered up 67 percent of the time on days they had sex. It also made them feel more attractive 45 percent of the time. These stats were virtually the same with and without relationships. The study did show, however, that women were more likely to experience guilt and health worries when they didn&amp;#039;t use protection, which is fair enough. Easy solution here, ladies\u2014throw a pack of condoms in your bag and keep taking your birth control. Planning ahead means you&amp;#039;ll protect yourself, and lessening the potential of post-booty guilt (and the chance of unwanted pregnancy or disease). "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
