Sex & The Married Couple

This months issue of Men's Health wrote an article about marital sex, and released findings worthy of discussion.  I'll skip the gutter stuff, as there was plenty of that.

Lots of numbers here folks; so open up your calculator if you need help keeping up.

15% of married couples no longer go out on dates with each other.  Sad.

25% of married men say they married over their head.  Amen.

68% of married men still think their wives are the best looking woman they've ever seen.  Amen.

76% of married men think their wives are just as sexy looking as they've even been, regardless of how long they've been married.  Amen.

64% of women who claim to weigh more now than when 1st married.

57% of men who claim to weigh more now than when 1st married.  (Note to Pam; this is GOOD thing for me, my gosh I looked so bad at 138 lbs. on our wedding day!)

53% of married couples are glad that they are no longer single.

And a few sad stats:

77% of couples who say there isn't enough sex in their marriage.

45% of couples who say they only have sex 0-4 times a month.  Sad.

34% of couples who say they only have sex 4-6 times a month.  Sad.

13% of couples did not enjoy being single.

And the positive stats:

19% of couples who enjoy sex 12-20 times a month.  Got some happy guys and gals in this group . . .

2% of couples who claim to enjoy sex every night.  Uh yeah, these couples are called liars . . .

In conclusion, though I was not surveyed, count me as one of the lucky ones, working on our 37th year of marital happiness and love. 

I wouldn't want to change a thing.  I am a blessed man.
