creativity

People often say creative people are fun, likeable, more social, and outgoing - but many creative minds are unorganized and sometimes deficient in handling complex logic. The University of Newcastle upon Tyne and the Open University have found that professional artists and poets have about twice as many sexual partners as the rest of us. The study also reveals that the average number of sexual partners increases as creative output goes up. So according to these institutions, the more creative you are, the more sexual partners you would have.

The desire to be creative or feel creative, whether expressed in music, industrial design, art, fashion, photography or film, coexists with the primal urge to commit the sex act, as well as the other layers in between. What if your desire for sex is weak, does it mean you are less creative than others? Our creative motivations are often based on some of our most primal passions such as joy, fear, anger, love and lust. In an article titled “Creative Juice- A Dozen Key Lessons for Creative Dreamers”, Suzanne Falter-Barns quotes Deepak Chopra and says, “Creativity is ultimately sexual, I’m sorry, but it is!” Love and lust make us think differently in that they trigger global processing, which in turn promote creative thinking- guess that means love and lust are good for creativity.
