A Romp Or A Romper: Sex vs Clothes

Life is full of difficult decisions – but apparently, choosing between sex and clothing is not one of them.
According to an article recently printed by Reuters, “sixty one percent of women polled said it would be worse to lose their favorite article of clothing than give up sex for a month.” I wonder who they are sleeping with……actually, I wonder which designer made their favorite article of clothing! Prada? Gucci? Marc Jacobs?
I did a bit more research and came up with some quotes about this topic from notable women.
In the eternal words of Madonna, “Manolo Blahnik’s shoes are as good as sex….and they last longer.” Can’t argue with that.
And our favorite fashionista, Sarah Jessica Parker was quoted as saying, “Most marriages don't last that long, but with Blahnik, you can be monogamous.”
What do you guys think? The below poll was done for a study regarding the topic.

wow awful. I don't care if you famous that is a definate no no. Also she has lots of money this looks like it was from the savalation army. She can do much better. Instead of buying all those ridiculous clothes she could have given to a charity.
Well, would that exclude personal sexual pleasure? I mean...sex is free, but a whole new wardrobe -- that does NOT come along every day!! Load me up on the dark chocolate and give me Blahnik.
I read that article and I think the main point is what actually makes a woman feel confident and sexy. Unfortunately clothes, not men and sex do that.
I would never trade 15 months of sex with my husband for new clothes. The last thing I need is more stuff.
I think it is sad how self centered we are. If you are in a relationship, you are not the only one giving up sex for 15 months. Fashion goes in and out. By the end of that 15 months, the clothes you got will no longer be in style anymore. I also disagree with the post by Patricia. Clothes do not make me feel confident and sexy. Feeling like a goddess in the bedroom does.
i agree with nicole,fashion does go out and it's not up to me alone to give up sex for 15mths it also involves my husband
I woulod not EVER give up sex with my man,beacuse clothes will not keep my happy forever.Now my man will.He make me feel sex when I'm in my pj's and my hair is a missy.I love him!!!!!
"I wonder who they are sleeping withâ¦â¦actually." This is the sentence I agree with. What makes a woman give up sex for cloths other than a "chore" named "sex"? So wake up men...wake up!
SO my question is, the women who chose clothes over sex....what kind of relationships have you had? Are you married and have you found the guy to share your life with? I guess I just don't understand. Give it a mounth or two and the clothes would get old. A man though...that's for life!
Just to let you know right off the bat - I don't have a man. But if I did, I wouldn't mind going without sex for a whole new wardrobe. The style of clothes I prefer are traditional and classic, and those never go out of style. So for me, it would be well worth it. Besides, they only asked about giving up sex. They didn't say anything about foreplay or mind stimulation.
hope u al di :')
what
^hi 2 u
wimmin r inferior :')
ok, for those with men in their lives or who are happily married... please don't be so quick to judge. us single gals may as well take the free clothes.... think about it-- if you're single, you aren't having sex on a regular basis anyway. that is, unless it's casual sex. i'd rather have the clothes that will last longer than a quick fuck. and clothes don't leave emotional baggage behind. and as for the quick expiration of clothing... not ALL styles expire that quickly. If you are smart and choose flattering styles that suit you and your taste, they are not likely to expire that quickly. If you choose the clothes that are trendy amongst the fashion industry and only those, then yes they will be outdated before you know it. also to be noted.... ntohing was mentioned about how LARGE this new wardrobe is.... in this case, size does matter.
o shut up
The people that don't have anything intelligent to say should stay off this board. I don't care what your opinion is on the subject, just be intelligent about it, and don't demean others just because you don't agree with them. I take it that everyone on this board is over 18, so act like it!
if someone told me that i could have anything i wanted clothes, hand bags etc. i want i would not only give up sex but give them my boyfriend to sex is free gucci is not plus when was the last time prada cheated on you jimmy choo and ed hardy will always love you plus im pretty sure to those who would choose sex over the clothes you will get cheated on by a man who wants yo see a well dressed lady not someone who opted for sweats just so she could get laid ever heard of dress to impress men really do like a well dress woman so laids my point is men, love and especially sex come and go clothes are there to make you feel great again when and if the bastards leaves I LOVE MY CLOTHES i like my boyfriend and he's sitting right next to me while i type this well at least im honest
well sex is better than clothes. i'm not a designer brand type of girl and i'm happy with the clothes that i got. but i would never give up 15 months for clothes. my man makes me VERY happy
the real reason we buy clothes is to look good, therefore, attract the opposite sex!!
All I can keep wondering is: how good is the sex for those who would gladly give it up for clothes? Seriously, ladies. Sex should be fun and wonderful no matter who it's with. Safe sex is good for you - physically and mentally. If the sex you are having is not good for you, which I must assume that it is bad if you're willing to give it up so easily, you should take things into your own hands. By that I do not mean masturbation, although that is always an option. Take control of your sex lives! If you're not getting what you want, ask for it, demand it, or do whatever you need to. Sex should not only be pleasurable for men...
Heck I would take the clothes..i mean i am a mother of 4 and i have not been shopping for myself and a new fashion in years! I still have some things sweatshirts etc.. that i have been wearing since highschool when i got married. I am happily married,and sex is great..he pleases me in all ways possible...so whos to say if i took the clothes..a month or 2 down the road is someone spying my every move..cant i cheat and get the new clothes and have sex too. maybe it would feel even more exciting with the thrill of getting caught...and if my clothes get taken away..then i had them for a period of time and still have my man forever!! haha....
If I were single, I'd take the clothes in an instant. But I'm not. I have great sex with my husand. And although I would still choose the clothes if I thought there would be no emotional repercussions, I know that making such a choice would hurt my husband's sense of worth as a husband and provider. That's a betrayal of my committment to him as a wife, and it isn't worth a closet full of clothing, even if the bags came with it. All you gals, who choose the clothing -- knock 'em dead! You'll look FAB! :D And you gals who choose your boyfriend/husband, you go, girl! :D
Mkay, so lets get something straight here, i may be young, not saying how old, but i don't even start crap over myspace...so why the heck would you think about starting it on here???
GROW-UP!
thank you.
no to the real topic...
I WANT THE CLOTHESSS!
so i'm so young i'm still a virgin, you get the idea, so i guess it wouldn't be that hard for me to decide, and if you do have money, know HOW to spend it, please.
thanks.
Who require cloths when u r under the sheets and the lights are turned off. Well sometimes the ligths are turned on. Ha.....Ha........ If u r married or have a comitted relationship u don't need fancy cloths to attact ur mate. He will love u the way u r and just because of what u r. Well for those who r single and looking, in that case u should opt for the new wadrobe. But what if u get the new closet and find ur dream partner at the same time????? Take a moment and think seriously.
I would give up sex for clothes... i love my man and he ROCKS in the sack, but my health problems have made things difficult. A new wardrobe would make me very happy and not for attracting the opposite sex.
Make that 'NO WAY IN H;LL'. Clothes versus sex? Oh, no you didn't....
I think you all are taking this question WAAAAY too seriously! It doesn't have anything to do with whether you are married, single, or in a committed relationship...it is a question of whether you, personally, would take sex over a free wardrobe - THAT is the question. Personally, I would take the clothes - even though I am married now and love my husband and love having sex with my husband, when I was single I went YEARS without having sex and I still survived. So, yeah, I could (and have) go 15 months without having sex - and I certainly didn't get any free clothes for doing it! hahaha
Aslong as, I get bags added on!...did I mention, they have to match...Yes, this is better than even my VBR! and for only 15 months...I went on 13 months without last year as my bf was away on a work trip!...I am sure we can do the 15 months...atleast he wont complaining about me spending his money!
Oh heck NO! Ive been married for 8yrs and Sex has always been Great!All it takes is just being confident as I always have been.I have 2 kiddos and I always have energy to do it! MY husband loves every inch of me from my hair to my itty bitty toe nail he says it all time.In front of his Buddies they know me w/o me meeting them because they say my hubby talks good about his TEX*MEX BABY.
Am i included in the no sex.If not of course now that i have no were to ware them.
please
seriously. Your all talking about giving up sex for clothes. Fine, I bet I could give up sex like that but you guys are being childish about it. Seriously! I am probably way younger than all of you and I'm not making a big deal about it. GOD!
Ive lived without sex fro the past 17 years wats another 15 mos for my favorite evening gown...
I would NEVER EVER give up 15 months of sex with my husband for new clothes, not even a huge walk in closet. How selfish I would be to take that out of our relationship." LOOK honey at my new pantsuit, doesnt it look great? Just 12 more months dear and we'll have sex again" Sex with my husband out ways clothes any day! I love shopping and I LOVE clothes, but I love my husband more.
Whats The Deal? Women wear clothes to please themselves and men...so why not have both?
What a stupid choice to make...Sex involves Love and without it you have nothing but loneliness....
if you are married, then there's no question, you would choose sex over the wardrobe. but if you are not, then you chose the wardrobe. nothing to freak out about people!
im no hoe i would chose the wardrobe b/c im not married!!
clothes make me feel sexy,when i'm naked i am sexy
Katie, you're not so young that you can't get wasted on drugs or alcohol. A fine buzz is the only thing that can explain your horrific spelling and grammar. Unless, of course, you're just a f'ing idiot?
I'm a guy and I would give up sex for a month in a heartbeat for some REALLY nice clothes that I never seem to have the money for. Also the whole "in fashion" issue only applies to those who let society command there style I personally love wearing a combo of what feels good and what I think reflects myself and my desires. That and yea it says no sex it doesn't say you can't still kiss and such wiht your boyfriend (or in some cases like mine gf). Also Sex in the City being the chief support for anyones argument is quite sad and not too credible. In the case of those who have someone they love then consider it not a sacrifice if you will, make it like that one idsh you don't eat too often or else it's spoiled or the one guilty pleasure you have for when you're down or in need. The break might actually make the sex all the better, I know when I travel and can't see my girl for a fair amount of time it makes the sex far better when I get back.
sex isn't just an act or physical gradification. its an expression of love and intimacy.
for a single women giving up the sex isn't that big a deal.
but for married women, if you withhold sex you'll be with holding your love and an expression of it. the marriage will suffer simlar as if your man stopped saying "i love you". if you're willing to do this you need and will need to work on your relationship.
I can go buy my own Manolo Blahniks & keep them on while I have sex with my husband! So there!! Ha ha
guys..are u seriously thinking on this topic? its so stupid...when in real life would there be a situation like this?

I love to read your blog...Its amazing....
This is a great article...thanks for sharing!
The truth is that more and more women tend to prefer clothes rather than sex. Frankly, I don't understand them, although I am also a woman. This doesn't mean that each time I have the occasion I say yes to sex. No, but I don't put such a big price on clothes. Anyway, these women should definitely see a doctor because their behavior is totally wrong.
