Go to the source, it clearly states that the map does not include foreplay. Edit: And a quote from the article: quote:Besides, previous research has shown that, despite the hubbub about hours-long tantric sessions, intercourse itself usually only lasts for about 3 to 13 minutes.

So Brazil's more likely to suffer a coup than Turkey, Iran and Mexico? About as likely as Venezuela and the Ukraine?

The person who made that map said "These forecasts are estimates based on noisy data, so they are highly imprecise, and small differences are not terribly meaningful. The fact that one country lands a few notches higher or lower than other on an ordered list does not imply a significant difference in risk."

Well the map also defines as "greatest after english and spanish" and it's filled in if it's a census designated metro area, not if there are a lot of speakers. This means in some parts of the country 2 people might cause the map to be colored while LA probably has a half a million Chinese speakers to get it's color on the map.

Man that map would be so cool to me as a linguistics nerd, but I'm too colorblind to enjoy it. The French Creole, Polish, Portuguese, Korean and Tagalog all look the same color to me, as do Other, Italian, Vietnamese and Russian. Wouldn't there be a nice, non-color-based way to make a map like this?

Probably most of it in Louisiana is actual French Settlers and also Acadians, whereas Florida is Haitian Immigrants.

Central and South Florida have large Haitian populations and they're treated like second class citizens by everybody (especially the Cuban community for some weird reason). I was more surprised to see that Florida had such a large German population. I had no idea the German retirees were that prevalent in this area, but then again I do see a lot of people wearing socks and sandals...

What's up with all the French across the Southeast? Louisiana I'm not surprised by, obviously, but it looks like there's a lot of blue in the Carolinas, Georgia, and Tennessee. I've lived in this area nearly my whole life and I haven't met very many French speakers.

Based on your link, and this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_Poland there are at least 43 cities with more Poles in Poland than are in NYC or Chicago. EDIT: Ok, if you include anyone of Polish descent then it works. But I would argue a 4th generation Pole who doesn't speak the language shouldn't be counted when saying there are more Poles in Chicago than Krakow.

Googling suggests that American emigration is an incredibly poorly tracked statistic but the country with the most is Mexico followed by Canada.

Well-to-do expats are way down in Tokyo post financial crisis because Lehman went under, and even now financial companies are cutting their Tokyo offices and shifting to Singapore and Hong Kong.

I would actually guess Philippines for highest % American expats. The problem with London and other first-world cities, you've basically limited it to rich people, at least as far as Americans moving there. Mexico'd be high because it's cheap, but has some real downsides too. Further in recent years things haven't been so great down Mexico Way. The Philippines, meanwhile, is a former US possession that still has a large active military presence/cooperation, has a lot of English speakers, and is pretty cheap cost-of-living-wise, especially for someone with American dollars to spend. Basically in my head the country with the highest % American expats is going to be significantly poorer than America, have English as a major language, have been a former British or American possession with current strong military/economic ties, and would allow Americans (or anyone at all) to own land/housing. EDIT: Of course, depending on definitions for "American Expats" wouldn't Liberia have a helluva case too?

By the same standard we count people as Irish Americans or African Americans, yeah why not? Since they dominated the local politics and didn't immigrate too much outside Monrovia, I'd imagine, Monrovia might just be the city with most American-descended people outside America. They apparently are considered a distinct ethnic group: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americo-Liberians
