Every relationship has its own unique perfect sex frequency — some couples do it every day; some are more once-a-week (or less often) kinds of people. A recent online survey of nearly 100,000 people, though, found that 40 percent of couples have sex three to four times a week. We’ll have what they’re having!
The study, which will be discussed in the upcoming book The Normal Bar, by Chrisanna Northrup; Pepper Schwartz, PhD; and James Witte, PhD, also found the following, USA TODAY reports:
• 48% of men and 28% of women report having fallen in love at first sight.
• 43% of men and 33% of women say they are keeping a major secret from their partner.
• 44 percent of respondents report that they “hardly ever” or “never” go out on a date.
If upping the frequency of sex is harder than it sounds, either due to your schedule or other issues, try this fix:
The authors suggest two ways to improve sexual satisfaction: go to bed nude (34% of U.S. women and 38% of men sleep nude with their partner) and kiss more as a sign of affection, not necessarily while making love. Those who kiss for affection rather than as part of a sexual act report being more sexually satisfied.
Sounds like a great first step.
