The two variables in particular that were | The two variables in particular that were hypothesized to be predictive of female orgasm's frequency were men's annual wealth and height. | ||
The researchers used data drawn from the Chinese Health and Family Life Survey sampling 60 villages and urban neighborhoods chosen in such a way as to represent the full geographical and socioeconomic range of contemporary China (i.e the PRC, excluding Tibet). | The researchers used data drawn from the Chinese Health and Family Life Survey sampling 60 villages and urban neighborhoods chosen in such a way as to represent the full geographical and socioeconomic range of contemporary China (i.e. the PRC, excluding Tibet). | ||

The | The researchers analyzed the data using several models to examine the correlations between partner height, annual income (in yuan), and self-reported orgasm frequency, carefully controlling for several possible confounding variables such as relationship satisfaction, education levels of the partner etc. | ||
It was found that there was a significant correlation between the women's orgasm frequency and the partner's annual income, but no significant correlation existed between orgasm frequency and partner height. | It was found that there was a significant correlation between the women's orgasm frequency and the partner's annual income, but no significant correlation existed between orgasm frequency and partner height. | ||
The researchers claimed that this was evidence that male income was casual of a higher reported level of orgasm frequency among the women surveyed. This relationship was claimed to be robust under several model-fit tests (how well the model fits the data). | |||
However, a later reexamination of the model fit (Herberich, 2010) found that adding more variables improved the model fit over and above the original studies claims, leaving the direct effect of partner income on orgasm non-significant. | |||
Thus, while it seems that wealthy men are indeed partnered with more orgasmic women, this relationship is mediated more by the higher quality of these women (healthy, more mentally stable, younger) than being directly driven by the greater wealth of the men in these partnerships (Pollet & Nettle, 2010). | |||
This finding casts doubts on the interpretation of the authors of the original study that female orgasm is associated with greater sperm-retention when women are partnered with men with 'good genes' or higher investment potential (at least as measured by wealth), and instead suggests that these wealthy men are more often partnered with women of a higher phenotypic quality, whether this is driven by assortative mating effects or because these men are more desirable (or both). | |||
