Extreme Metal Guitar Skills Linked to Intrasexual Competition, but Not Mating Success

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.
