Fast sex turns India on

New Delhi: Quick but satisfied. In the jet-setting age of fast redemption, this is what sex life is like for Indians.

A global survey conducted by leading condom-maker Durex finds that in the land of Kamasutra, fast love is the way to go and number 13 seems to be all about getting lucky and well, horny.

According to the Durex Global Sexual Wellbeing Survey, Indians have sex the quickest, devoting an average of 13 minutes to each session as opposed to the global average of 18 minutes.

The survey spread over 26 countries with a sample size of more than 26,000 people found that Indians were the third most satisfied with 61 per cent respondents happy with their sex life and women remain on top, literally. As compared to 58 per cent of Indian men, 66 per cent of Indian women were satisfied with their sex lives.

However, the age-old problem of the Big O still remains with only 46 per cent of Indians reporting a regular orgasm.

The findings of the survey conducted across 26 nations are not short of curious details. While two-thirds of Indians call their sex lives exciting, 55 per cent recognise the importance of introducing a little experimentation in bed.

While Indians might not prefer talking about sex in public, they certainly seem to enjoy more than their global counterparts.

The survey found that Indians love to make love as many as 130 times a year, way above the global average of 103.

At the global level, the average of sexual satisfaction climaxed at 44 per cent with Nigerians being the most satisfied at 67 per cent and Japanese - at only 15 percent - being the least satisfied.

The Greeks were found to be the most amorous, having sex 164 times a year, followed by Brazilians who clock in at 145. The Russians and Poles share the third position at 143.

The survey also speaks of teen sex and reveals that while teenagers all over the world maybe having sex less often than their elders, but the time is made up by sessions that are twice as long.

Each teen sex session averages close to 40 minutes and has a higher satisfaction rate too!

The survey questioned more than 26,000 people about every aspect of their sex lives to chart out global parameters of sexual well-being.

The study was based on key aspects of health, general wellbeing, education, beliefs, sex and relationships, attitudes to sex and social circumstances.

It also identified ways in which Indians could boost their satisfaction levels even further, with almost half of all Indians (47 per cent) craving for more love and romance.

Conducted by Harris Interactive, the participating countries included Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, Hong King, India, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands , New Zealand, Nigeria, Poland, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, the United Kingdom and the United States.

According to UK-based sexual health expert Dr Kevan Wylie, who has been involved in the study, the survey enables identification of key drivers of sexual wellbeing and confirms the role it plays in physical and emotional health.

''The survey highlights how vital it is for everyone, especially men, to not only consider their sexual health but to talk to their doctor about solving problems to improve their sex life and that of their partner,'' Wylie was quoted by agencies as saying.
