"As much as I don&amp;amp;#8217;t think we should compare our sex lives against others (different strokes for different folks, after all), it&amp;amp;#8217;s pretty much a basic tenant of human nature that we will. Am I doing it enough? Am I doing it right? Is this normal? We can&amp;amp;#8217;t help it, so let&amp;amp;#8217;s just go ahead and compare&amp;amp;#133; Yahoo! Shine recently published the results of a survey of 1000 adults and got all the nitty gritty details on their sex lives. Here are a few I thought might interest you: Married or cohabitating couples have sex 2.4 times a week, whereas single people report an average of 5.3 times a week. Men estimate that their sessions between the sheets last 45 minutes, but women estimate 39 minutes. Men may be overestimating, but only 53% of them are satisfied with how much time they spend getting it on, as opposed to 65% of women. The top way to get a person, male or female, in the mood for some loving is dinner and a bottle of wine. The top phrase for activating a woman&amp;amp;#8217;s libido? &amp;amp;#8220;I love you&amp;amp;#8221; with 42% of the vote. &amp;amp;#8220;You are so hot&amp;amp;#8221; was second with 25%. Younger people are more likely to be turned on by sexy texts and emails, but nearly half of all adults have done some dirty talking on the phone. And last but not least, women tend to value sleep over sex more than men. Given an extra hour in the day, 46% of men would have sex, whereas only 24% of women would. Are you surprised by any of these? I have to say it sounds like most single people are having a lot more fun than me, and I&amp;#x27;m jealous. Harrumph! How do you measure up? How often and how long are you having sex? What&amp;amp;#8217;s your biggest turn on? Compare and contrast, ladies!
