Apparently, everything is bigger in Texas, including our sexual appe e.
Not only is Austin the Live Music Capital of the World — it’s also the “Capital of Copulation,” at least according to Men’s Health magazine’s October issue.
Austin has also spread the, er, love to Dallas, which is ranked No. 2. As Texans know, size does matter: the second-largest state in the union has seven of the top 15 sexually charged cities on the list, which is appropriately called “America’s Hotbeds of Sex.”
The magazine says Austin is, ahem, on top based on condom sales, birth rates, sex toy sales, and rates of STDs.
Looking for a vacation from the Austin heat and hormones? Head to Portland, Maine, the lowest-ranked city on the survey.
At the Statesman, we’re a little skeptical of the results because of the placement of the Big Easy and Sin City. New Orleans (46th) and Las Vegas (70th!) both are prude compared to Salt Lake City (23rd) and Wichita, Kan. (30th).
We do note that a lot of the cities on the list are college towns. Maybe there’s a correlation? Go figure. Either way, the heat is on in Texas … but you already knew that.

Great, as if property values weren't inflated enough, now we let this secret get out...
Suprised to see El Paso so high
i think STD reporting vs what STD figures truly are can be far apart.
Lots of docs play ball and don't report i bet.
San Antonio is lower ranked because nobody buys condoms..
