Sex 149 Times a Year Is Average: Global Survey Mon Nov 25, 3:46 PM ET Add Health - Reuters to My Yahoo! LONDON (Reuters) - Britons have sex more often than Americans and Spaniards, but are outdone between the sheets by the French, Dutch, Danes and Canadians, a survey by condom manufacturer Durex found on Monday. The Durex Global Sex survey revealed that Britons make love an average of 149 times a year, outdone only by couples in France (167), the Netherlands (158), Denmark (152) and Canada (150). Those taking their love-making at a more relaxed pace included Americans (138 times a year), New Zealanders (135) and the Spanish, who limped in at an annual love rate of just 121. Some 3,500 people from the UK took part in an online survey organized by Durex, which polled 50,000 people worldwide. Almost 4 in 10 of UK respondents admitted they had had unprotected sex with a new partner in the last 12 months, despite more than two-thirds believing AIDS (news - web sites) is a serious problem in Britain. The young are putting themselves most at risk of sexual infection, with 46% of UK respondents aged 18 to 20 saying they had had sex without a condom with a new partner in the last year. Durex said it would release full details of the global survey on Tuesday.
