One of the most frequent questions that you usually ask us is the one that comes up here; “What is the frequency of normal sexuality according to my age?” and the next one is “I'm in the middle of other couples?”. It seems logical to compare ourselves with others, but the only truth is that there is no single answer to any of these questions.

We all know that the circumstances of sexual activity depend on many factors. Whether or not you have a partner, whether or not you live with them, the family situation (parents with young children understand what we mean...), work obligations, free time, day-to-day stress... And, of course, ardor of the different members of the relationship. There may be problems if what is known as having discordant libidos occurs. In other words, one of the members of the relationship has more sexual appetite than the other, and both consider that theirs is "normal" behavior. It is very common and does not mean that the couple is going wrong, but it is important to talk about it and reach an understanding so that both feel comfortable.

The frequency of normal sexuality by age

There is a conditioning factor that is there, and that affects; the age. Although there are exceptions of true slip champions who already comb gray hair, the most frequent thing is that, over the years, the frequency of sexual relations suffers.

According to a study by the Kinsey Institute (United States), when we are between 18 and 29 years old we have an average of 112 relationships per year (2.2 per week), between 30 and 39 years old it is 86 times (1.7 per week), while that when they are between 40 and 49 years old they stay in 69 times a year (1.3 a week). Of course, we are talking about averages, from a different country and this does not mean that being above or below is something 'abnormal'.

There are studies that indicate that having a high sexual frequency improves relationships. But what is more curious is that they also say that happiness levels increase even more when it is discovered that we are above the sexual average that corresponds to us by age or origin.

In any case, we always recommend relating what you want, enjoying what you need or more and always trying to raise pleasure to the nth degree.
