Sex survey on Singaporeans
-
Stressed-out Singaporeans are neglecting their sex lives because they are too tired to make love, a study has found.
Singaporeans have sex just six times a month, compared with three times a week in many other countries, the study said.
To improve your sex life, you just have to make time for it
Older people are even less active, said Professor Victor Goh, from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the National University of Singapore.
His findings were based on a study of 133 men and 460 women aged 30 to 70.
"At the end of the day, when all their other responsibilities have been fulfilled, Singaporeans just feel too tried to perform," said Professor Goh.
Singaporeans aged 41 and 55 have sex about four times a month, while the average drops to about three times a month for those over 55, he said.
"To improve your sex life, you just have to make time for it," said Professor Goh. "It's just like exercise."
Singapore, a city-state with a population of four million, is one of the world's wealthiest countries.
The government has come up with a variety of schemes in an attempt to boost declining birth rates, including tax breaks for married couples and free matchmaking services.
But it seems most Singaporeans could be happy with their sex lives.
Only about 40% men and 20% of women below the age of 40 said they wanted more, the survey showed.

People here by & large are more preoccupied with Bread & Butter issues than the Birds & the Bees....
Every new year, the average Singaporean would be anticipating with bated breath, what & how much will the increases of general living costs are going to be like? Like that... how to even get it up???
Come on, life in Singapore is too fast-paced for people to have a healthy or NORMAL sex-life! Face it, & bin this Sex Survey thingy... the cause & effect is in plain sight! -
My colleague is married for many years and I asked him how many children he has. He said non.Originally posted by selfobliged:Singapore should have a sex day...just like Russia

Didn't the despot say he doesn't care a hoot about such stuff? Just as he doesn't really bother if Amnesty International and Reporter Without Borders don't rank them highly. Amazingly, his selective amnesia allows him to cite the positive slant provided by Mercer, IMF and other more favourable bodies though...Originally posted by Rock^Star:That was a survey 5 years ago, has it become any better?

In truth, sometimes Amnesty can't be taken seriously.
Anyway, why are we kicking up a big fuss about this? More sex doesn't necessarily mean more babies. Do we need more people on this already-packed island?
The more sleep some people lose over this matter, the less likely they'll be in the mood for love - ironic isn't it? -
Hmm.. wait, I think there are great differences between LOVE & SEXUAL NEEDS... one word surmizes this need: LUST.Originally posted by Kuali Baba:In truth, sometimes Amnesty can't be taken seriously.

People should instead conduct a survey on LUST, mindful of the thriving flesh trade here... you'd be surprised how active locals are in this quarter rather than the other of LOVE leading to a sex life... -
I understand on how u felt cause Spore is becoming more like HK already n the people in Spore is rated as the unhappiest according to a survey done.Originally posted by BaByBoY:seriously

It is of little wonder people say Spore is a place to make money but not to retire in. -

This survey should include the sex tours Singaporeans do when visiting neighbouring countries -
if ppl are unhappy, then naturally they do not think of sex,

Everyday feel so tired how to make up

This is sad. Adults got time to work, but no time for leisure in this working society.
However, more teenagers engage in pre-marriage sex and numbers keep increasing according to some news recently. 16 years old girl Mum due to the act of disgusting bf?
What is the reason causing this society problem?
