Why Those Most Hostile to Sex May Enjoy It Best

The puzzle of religion and sex.
  • Religions have both negative and positive attitudes toward sex.
  • Surveys find that religious people frequently enjoy sex more than secular ones do.
  • The group that shows the highest levels of sexual satisfaction is that of unmarried couples living apart.

"Give me chastity and continence, but not yet." —Saint Augustine

Religious attitudes to sex outside of marriage, and as an end in itself, are often hostile.

However, studies indicate that religious rather than secular people enjoy sex most. How does this make sense?
