LONDON: Being sexy is often perceived to be a key
essence of femininity. And, now a new study has found that women feel most sexy at the age of
34.
Researchers have based their findings on a survey of over 1,000 women who were questioned about their sex lives - the majority of respondents said that it was at the age of 34 when they had felt more sexy.
The survey also revealed that
middle-aged women have half as much sex as they did when they were younger - in fact the researchers found that that on average women aged 45 to 60 have sex 4.5 times a month, compared to 10.4 times a month in their 20s and 30s.
However, 56% of the respondents said they enjoyed it now more than they did when they were younger, British newspaper the Daily Telegraph reported.
Sex and
relationship advisor Dr Catherine Hood said: "Many of us make the
assumption that older people have less sex than the young, and this research appears to confirm this.
However, it does show that women are still enjoying great sex lives as they get older.
"Women's
sexual needs, libido and lifestyle change over time, but there is absolutely no reason why older women can't enjoy an extremely fulfiling sex life in their middle age and well into their
senior years.
"The fact that over half of those quizzed said they had better sex now than in their 20s and 30s suggests that these women are more
confident and self-assured than they were in their younger days and aren't afraid of getting what they want."
The research commissioned by moisturiser brand Astral questioned 1,031 women about their sex lives.
妇女34岁时最性感
伦敦:性感往往被认为是女性的根本。而且,现在,一项新的研究发现,妇女觉得自己最性感的年龄是在她们34岁时 。
研究人员根据他们对1000多名妇女的性生活问卷的调查结果发现-其中大多数的受访者认为,她们在3 4岁的时候更性感。
该项调查还显示,中年妇女的性生活只有她们年轻时的一半-研究人员发现,事实上年龄在4 5岁至6 0的妇女平均每月做爱4 .5次,而她们在二十和三十年龄段时每月做爱1 0.4次。尽管如此,《英国每日电讯报》报道,56%的受访者认为她们现在比年轻时更懂得享受性爱.
性和性关系顾问凯瑟琳胡德博士说: "我们许多人认为老年人的性生活比年轻人少,这项研究似乎证实了这一点。"
然而调查也表明,妇女们随着年龄的增长仍然享受性乐趣.
"妇女的性需要,性欲和生活方式随着时间的推移而改变,但绝对没有理由说中年妇女甚至老年妇女就不能享受一次极其放纵的性生活.
"事实上,超过半数的受访人说,他们现在的性生活比她们二,三十岁时更美满.这表明,这些妇女比她们年轻时更自信,更自明,而且不畏惧去争取她们所想的。 "
该研究是受保湿品牌星芒(Astral)的委托,对1031名妇女的性生活进行了调查。
