A study has found that men with the "dark triad" of traits – narcissism, thrill- seeking and deceitfulness – are likely to have a larger number of sexual affairs.(...)The study subjected 200 college students to personality tests designed to rank them in terms of the dark triad. They were also asked about their sexual relationships, including their attitude towards brief affairs.
In other words, narcissistic, deceitful men report that they get laid more often.
Now I admit I haven't read the actual study so perhaps this glaring problem is addressed there somehow. If it is, then it's just the summary press article that's stupid. If it's not, both the study and the summary are.
