| SLUG| What’s Some surprising facts and gures about sex and your sexual health THE BUZZ? 7 8 1 2 3 WORDS: Georgina Maric | PHOTOGRAPH: Getty Images The average number of sexual partners for women is seven, while men say their average is almost double that, at 13. Peak age for contracting a sexually transmitted infection (STI) in women is between 19 and 20 years, and in men between 20 and 23 years. In 2009, 25% of British women surveyed aged 16-49 named the male condom as their current method of contraception. Only 2% of those asked used the female condom. A survey of 238 people aged 65 or older found 60% who engaged in sexual activity more than once a month said they were very happy compared to 40% who had not had sex for a year. Four- fths of those who had sex more than once a month said they were very happy in their marriage compared to 59% who said they had not had sexual activity in the last 12 months. The average amount of time spent kissing over a person’s lifetime is 20,160 minutes. That amounts to 336 hours or two weeks. The most popular place to have sex outside the bedroom (82%) is in the shower or bath, according to Cosmopolitan magazine. 4 5 6 Thirty years on from the start of the UK HIV epidemic, there were 91,500 people living with HIV in the UK in 2010, more people than ever before. Diagnoses of HIV in gay men reached 3,000 in 2010, the highest ever level, accounting for 73% of HIV infections sexually acquired in the UK. But 50% of new diagnoses in 2010 were among heterosexuals and 42% of these were acquired in Africa. The vibrator for women was originally invented in the 19th century to reduce ‘hysteria’. The average age for having heterosexual sex for the rst time is 16 for both men and women. Mortality was 50% lower in a group who had more regular orgasms than in a group with lower orgasmic frequency, according to a study published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ). Basically, the more orgasms you have, the longer you are likely to live. 9 10 11 12 Half of abortions (49%) in 2010 were to women with partners. Over a quarter (26%) were to single women and 16% of abortions occurred within marriage. The amount of chlamydia diagnoses con rmed in teenagers increased in 2009, from 73,224 in 2008 to 79,720. ✱ MARCH 2012 | 179
