What women want?? - - - Women Want Money

More powerful than freedom from dieting, more important than having your husband remain faithful is ... never having to worry about money again. That's just some of the shocking information readers revealed in the series of Feel the Pulse of Women polls we conducted last week.

We wanted to find out what's really most important to you right at this moment and we tried to find out through a series of comparisons. We started off the week pitting diet and orgasms against one another. We asked: Would you rather never have to diet again or have an orgasm every time?

And apparently food is more important than the Big 0.

• 86 percent of women chose freedom from dieting, while only 14 percent chose a guaranteed grand finale.

Quick, hide the screen from your guy! It's not that we don't want them, but ... NEVER HAVING TO DIET AGAIN? We swoon at the thought.

But not nearly as much as we do when thinking about never having to worry about MONEY apparently. The next day we took the previous poll winner and put it up against freedom from financial worry.

• 83 percent of women chose never having to worry about money again, while 17 percent still chose never having to diet again.

Tough choice, but if we had all that money, we could probably hire a pretty good trainer...

Wednesday's results were even more surprising. It seems that more women care more about rolling in dough than they do if their partner is rolling in the hay with someone else!

• 52 percent chose freedom from financial worries, while only 48 percent chose having their partner always be faithful.

So, while the results show that women seem at least a little bit materialistic, in the end, love for our children won out in Thursday's poll ... but barely.

• 60 percent of women chose Be certain that your children will live happy, successful lives over money. But there were still 40 percent of respondents who chose never having to worry about money again.

We're not here to judge, but, wow!
