I never heard of this survey from earlier this year:
Every year, the field of drivers in the Indianapolis 500 burns through a ton of rubber, but then so do the locals — Indy's condom sales are 16th highest in the country, according to A.C. Nielsen data. But all that latex is only one of several reasons why Indianapolis took pole position in our ranking of the randiest cities.

We also factored in one of the top bedroom barometers: birth rates from the U.S. Census Bureau. (Yes, there are test tubes, but old-fashioned nooky is still the most popular way to make babies.) Then we considered sales of sex toys and other erotic ephemera from retailers Babeland and Pure Romance. (Hey, the right props can turn a great performance into one that begs for an encore.)
So what else do the results reveal about our nation's commitment to copulation? Just that the stretch of I-74 linking Indianapolis to fourth-place Cincinnati should hereafter be known as America's Sex Drive.
Stick with It
British researchers say that 1 in 3 men give up on their ED drug if it doesn't fuel an erection the first time out. But even miracle medications don't always work right from the start. Give it three more tries. Still no boost? Ask your doc to adjust the dosage or prescribe a new drug.
Where's the Male Pill?
In the realm of easily reversible contraception, a man's options are limited: a condom. This despite 55 percent of men saying they'd pop a male birth-control pill, according to a study in Human Reproduction. The problem? Money. "The National Institutes of Health can provide maybe a couple hundred thousand dollars for a study on mice, but it can't give you the $4 million to $10 million to complete the clinical trials and bring the drug to market," says Elaine Lissner, director of the Male Contraception Information Project.
