The participants were asked to complete a confidential questionnaire, which was then placed in a sealed envelope. Also, the researchers conducted Interviews across the country and weighed the results to the profile of all adults.

Survey Finds Brits Want to Live Till 82
Although Brits admit that they would like to live till the age of 82, a majority of them doubt whether they would be able to make it, according to new survey.

Speaking about frequency, the survey found that an average Briton has sex just under seven times per month, i.e. less than twice a week. And the interesting part is that men claimed to have sex more frequently than women.

It was revealed that three out of four Britons are satisfied with their sex life, and there wasn't much difference between the genders or age groups in this respect.

A similar trend was seen in young Britons, who claimed to have sex far more frequently than older Britons, but those people above 65 years of age are more likely to be satisfied with their sex life than those aged 16-24.

One in five Britons consider themselves to have a very high sex drive. And it is the men who reported a higher sex drive than women-27 per cent of men say they have a very high sex drive compared with 11 per cent of women.

On average, the 16-24 age group has the highest sex drive, however, there is a significant drop in the for each successive age group, suggesting that sex drive diminishes with age for most of us.

Interestingly, those who are married have a significantly lower sex drive than those who are single; 61 per cent of singles say they have a high sex drive compared with 39 per cent of those who are married.

One in four Britons consider themselves to be a very good lover, despite the fact that they are most likely to think themselves to be average in this respect.
