Austrians and Spaniards?

According to Edward Laumann of the University of California, Austrians and Spaniards report the most sexual satisfaction among 40+ers based on a survey of 27,500 men and women. In all countries except Algeria and Malaysia men reported they were more satisfied than women with sex. Algeria and Malaysia? From the article

El bajo nivel de satisfacción sexual entre las mujeres también se explica por la falta de juegos previos, algo particularmente problemático en Asia y en Medio Oriente, dijo Laumann. "En promedio, (a los hombres) les lleva cuatro minutos eyacular. Las mujeres necesitan 11 minutos. Es por eso que los juegos previos son tan importantes". Y agregó que la mayoría de los hombres afirmaba tener siempre un orgasmo, pero entre las mujeres, la cifra sólo alcanza el 26 por ciento, "aunque 45% de los hombres cree que su pareja siempre tiene un orgasmo".


The low level of satisfaction among women can also be explained by the lack of foreplay, something particularly problematic in Asia and the Middle East, said Laumann. "On average, (among men) it takes four minutes to ejaculate. Women need 11 minutes. That's why foreplay is so important." He added that the majority of men say they always have an orgasm, but among women, that number only reaches 26%, "even though 45% of men believe their partner always have an orgasm."


Spain? I still can't get over it.
