Quality, not… Nevermind

Every year, condom manufacturer Durex conducts an online sex survey to determine how people are feeling about safe sex, what precautions they take when having sex... and then some more fun pieces of information, such as what celebrity people think is the most sexy, when people lost their virginity, how long do you have to wait before having sex, etc.

This year's survey polled 50,000 people worldwide. Eleven percent of the adults surveyed claimed to have never had sex at all. (And why would they lie?) And -- hands down -- women claimed to have sex more often than men.

BUT the survey question getting the most media attention last week was the one reporting on how often people in each country have sex each year. And guess what? Americans aren't keeping up with the Joneses... and the Brauns and the Bouchards.

Bottom line? AMericans have sex an average of 138 times a year. That seems like a lot until you find out that the British have sex 149 times a year. And the French? Don't ask. In case you were wondering: France (167), the Netherlands (158), Denmark (152), Canada (150), United Kingdom (149), Germany and Yugoslavia (147), South Africa (146), Austria and Norway (144), Poland (141). Below the United States (a paltry 138 times per year) comes Sweden (136), New Zealand (135), Belgium (130), Finland (129), Malaysia, Spain and Taiwan all at 121, India (116), Thailand (112), and Singapore (110).

Perhaps this should be a message to President Bush and Dick Cheney. It's time for America to make love, not war. We can win this thing!
