The push-pull feelings many married women have about sex are graphically displayed in the latest survey from online news site iVillage.com, with

• 75 per cent of wives saying a healthy sex life was important to them,
• and 66 per cent saying they would rather do something else rather than hit the sack.

Sex? I’d Prefer Something Else

Preferable things to do included go to the spa, watch a movie, use Facebook or chat with friends.

That’s up on last year, when the survey found more than 63 percent of women reporting that they would rather sleep, watch a movie or read than have sex.

Three Times A Month

The survey showed 23 per cent of women aged 18 – 49 have had sex between 1 and 3 times a month in the past year, while 21 per cent say they have sex more than 10 times monthly. On average, nine per cent didn’t have sex at all.

Getting in the Mood

So what gets wives in the mood? This year’s survey revealed that having a spouse express loving feelings is more likely to rev up a woman’s libido than receiving a gift or seeing her partner in sexy clothes.
