SINGAPORE, Nov. 8 â An active sex life helps beat stress, is the theory. But stressed out Asians donât have time for sex. As a result, Asians have the least active sex lives globally with India and eight other countries from the continent making up the bottom ten in terms of love-making, condom maker Durex said today.
| Then where do all those little Asians come from? Do they import them? |
Japan was bottom of the list of 41 countries and territories covered by this yearâs Durex survey. Japanese have sex 45 times annually on an average, less than half the corresponding global figure of 103, and much less than the Greeks who topped the poll with 138 romps a year.
| Keeps them regular, I guess... |
Singaporeans ranked second-last with 73. Indians (75), Indonesians (77), Hong Kong residents (78), Malaysians (83), Vietnamese (87), Taiwanese (88) and China (96 times a year) were the other Asian countries ranked as having the lowest libido.
| Maybe that's because the Chinese have such a head start on the rest of the world... |
Croatia trails Greece with 134 times a year, followed by Serbia and Montenegro at 128 times each.
"Ooooh! Beppy! Let's do it Serbia-Montenegran style!"
[SLAP!] |
Britons are more fired up than the Americans, having sex 118 times a year compared with 113 for the USA, but the French still remain the amorous of the three with 120 sessions a year.
"Aaahh! Mam'zelle! Come wiz me to ze bood-wahr!"
"Why, Jean-Pierre! You silver-tongued devil, you!" |
The Swedes were the only non-Asians in the bottom 10, with an annual average of 92 instances of making love.
| "Ya, sure! It's tøø cøld to be gettin' nekkid!" |
The Thais have sex on an average of 97 times a year. The stress of living in fast-paced Asia, home to some of the worldâs fastest-growing economies, could be the reason why couples make love less, Durex said. âIf you look at the East Asian economies, they are the ones that are moving faster,â Mr Cesar Balota, Durex country manager for Singapore and Indonesia told reporters.
| "Not now, honey! I'm writing a business plan!" |
More than 3,170,000 people took part in Durexâs ninth annual survey on sexual attitudes and behaviour.
I'd rather see the bareback numbers, lol. |
