New Study Discovers Just How Much Sex Women Wish They Were Having

A recent study may have completely debunked the myth that men have a higher libido than women.Researchers behind the fertility app, Kindara, surveyed 500 women in a bid to explore the truth behind claims that women aren’t that interested in sex, have fewer orgasms than men, and develop an emotional attachment to their sexual partners.

From the findings, researchers say that it seems that women are hornier than most believe and in fact may want to have sex a lot more than men do!

Woman want more sex than people think. A recent survey may debunk the myth that men have a higher libido than women. According to the researchers behind the fertility app, Kindara, their findings suggest that not only are women hornier than people think, it turns out that they may even want more sex than men.

Is there any truth to the myth that women aren’t as interested in sex? The researchers surveyed 500 women in a bid to explore the truth behind claims that women aren’t as interested in sex as men and have fewer orgasms too. They also sought to discover what’s behind the stereotype that women easily develop an emotional attachment to people they have sex with.

Many women want sex more than 3 times a week. Researchers say that they found that a whopping 75% of those surveyed said that they wanted to have sex 3 times or more per week. Some women, however (13%, in fact), said that they wanted sex a lot more - upwards of six times a week.

39% of women climax in every sexual encounter. The idea that women suffer from a lack of orgasm also didn’t play out in the findings. Of the 500 women surveyed, 39% said that they climaxed at least once during sex while as many as 10% or 1 in 10 said that they enjoyed multiple orgasms.

Other women have regular orgasms. There were women who admitted, however, to not having an orgasm every time they had sex. They did say, though, that they still experienced regular orgasms.

Women are having more orgasms. Compared to a 1994 survey that found that while 75% of men had an orgasm in every sexual encounter, only 29% of women could boast of the same, Kindara app researchers say they found that many more women are now achieving orgasm in every sexual encounter. They believe it is possible that men and women have achieved greater equality when it comes to “giving and receiving pleasure beneath the sheets.”

How much sex are couples having? This study comes on the heels of another published recently by the Kinsey Institute on how much sex couples are having. They found that couples between the ages of 18 and 29 years old are having sex on average about 112 times a year!

18-29-year-olds having the most sex. While people between the ages of 18 and 29 years old, on average, are having sex about twice a week or 9 times a month, those between 30 and 39, say the Kinsey Institute, are indulging about 7 times a month or once a week. This works out to about 86 times a year.

Couples over age 40 are having the least. Those over the age of 40, found the Kinsey Institute, are having the least sex. On average, couples in this age group have sex roughly about 5 times a month or 69 times a year!

7% of married couples having sex more than 3 to 4 times a week. Only 7% of married couples, found researchers from the Kinsey Institute, have sex more than 3 to 4 times a week, while 13% say that they only get busy in bed a few times a year. The largest percentage, 45% of married couples, said they averaged a few times a month.

The most desirable sexual encounter lasts 7 to 13 minutes. When it comes to how long most couple found ideal sex to last, a survey of therapists from the US and Canada found that while 3 to 7 minutes would be considered too short for most couples, 10 to 30 minutes would be thought of as being too long. The most “desirable” length of time, according to the survey, was 7 to 13 minutes!

People still evaluating themselves on stereotypes. According to researchers, most men and women are still relying on personal beliefs constructed from both formal and informal societal messages and stereotypes to evaluate their sexual function. Many are still given by the fantasy of “large penises, rock-hard erections, and all-night-long intercourse.”

There is only one thing you need to know to improve sexual performance. According to one expert, when it comes to having satisfying sex, there is only one thing you need to focus on. Knowing what your partner wants, Nicole Prause told the Daily Star, will “improve your bedroom skills” and have you be seen as “good at sex.”

Listen to your lover. It’s all about paying “attention to your partner” says the principal investigator at the Sexual Psychophysiology and Affective Neuroscience Lab at the University of California. Aside from knowing the basics, she says, to be sexually satisfied, you should “listening to your lover.”

Familiarity equals better orgasms. The research seems to confirm Prause’s advice, says the Daily Star. Not only do women appear to orgasm more often the more they have sex with the same partner, but it seems that her sexual enjoyment increases “dramatically” once she has had sex with a partner at least once!
