Men sort themselves within status hierarchies. Some people might assume that men at the top of these hierarchies are more likely to have more sexual partners. Although this assumption might be true for other fields, heavy metal guitar playing is not one of them.
A psychological study published in Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences found that male metal guitarists who spent more time practicing generally had a greater desire for casual sex than those who spent less time practicing. But, PsyPost reports they were not more successful than lower-skilled players at achieving those sexual goals. The researchers hope to expand the study in the future to include professional heavy metal guitarists.
