Here at Asylum, we are well aware that the average guy can't just walk into a room and slay the ladies with his overwhelming physical presence or rapier wit. For this reason, we take every opportunity to provide our readers with methods for using geek skills, such as science and math, to increase their likelihood of spending quality time with a Homo sapiens who has two X chromosomes.

While these calculations may not necessarily help you score, they'll provide a better idea of where you stand on the sexual food chain than any locker-room conversation might. Here is our latest cache of sex odds, courtesy of the Book of Odds:

1. The odds a woman has had sex on a first date are 1 in 6.06
In many cultures, the ability to glean if a woman is among that 17 percent before asking her on a first date is considered a superpower.

2. The odds a man has ever paid for or been paid for sex are 1 in 6.64
We like the way this is presented: It makes us feel like our dream of a lovely lady paying us for sex isn't as absurd as society has led us to believe.

3. The odds the most recent sexual encounter of a man between 18-59 years old lasted less than one minute are 1 in 9.09.
What's the deal, sub-minute men? If focusing on baseball is too antiquated, why don't you try thinking about viral videos of dudes getting kicked in the balls?

4. The odds a male between 15-44 years old has ever had anal sex with a female are 1 in 2.94
The odds a male has ever unsuccessfully tried to trade attendance at the far-flung wedding of his girlfriend's sorority sister for anal sex are about 2 in 3.

5. The odds a male 15-44 years old has ever had any sexual contact with a male are 1 in 16.67
It depends on what counts as sexual contact, as we've seen some incredibly intense bro-hugs in our day.

6. The odds a married man has ever had an extramarital sexual partner are 1 in 4.13
Of course, those odds are considerably higher if you happen to be the number one golfer in the world.

7. The odds a male between 15-44 years old used a condom during his last sexual encounter are 1 in 2.53
These are also just about the odds of a used condom getting a male into some sort of trouble over his lifetime.

8. The odds a male between 15-44 has had 15 or more female sexual partners in his lifetime are 1 in 4.42
The odds a male between 15-44 has ever lied about sex are not dissimilar to those of the sun rising in the East.

9. The odds a male 15-44 has had no female sexual partners in his lifetime are 1 in 10.31
Hey, sometimes a guy's cherished action-figure collection is just too much to give up.

10. The odds a man 15-44 will visit a pornographic Web site at least once in a month are 1 in 3.31
Which means fewer than two-thirds of men between the ages of 15-44 haven't visited a pornographic Web site at least once in the past month. Whaaaa? It sort of calls into question the accuracy of all these odds. Especially in light of this.
