Forbes has put out a list of what it’s calling America’s “Most Lustful Cities”, but what is in fact just a list of cities that sell a high percentage of contraceptives compared to their populations. D.C. comes in 6th on the list, which doesn’t include any of the typically thought of as sexy U.S. cities, like Miami, New York or San Francisco.

1. Denver, Colorado
2. San Antonio, Texas and Portland, Oregon
3. Seattle, Washington
4. Salt Lake City, Utah
5. Boise, Idaho
6. Washington, D.C.
7. Cincinnatti, Ohio and Cleveland, Ohio
8. Baltimore, Maryland
9. Buffalo, New York
10. Rochester, New York

The presence of such illustrious locales at Boise and Buffalo seems to indicate that at least part of the results show that people in cities with not a lot going on may get busy more often than those who have more nightlife options. Then again, Seattle, Portland and of course we’d argue D.C. are all pretty happening places. Maybe we’re just having safer sex than people in other major cities? Has everyone in Chicago stopped using condoms for some reason? This latest Forbes list baffles just a little.
