Not too much sex please, we are still British you know

One in eight women between the ages of 16 and 50 in Britain had no sex in the past year while the vast majority had only one partner, says a new report which paints Britain as a largely monogamous if not "sexless" society.The portrait of Britain's attitude towards sex and relationships was revealed by compelling socio-cultural data from the Office for National Statistics.

Dr Edward Morris, a consultant gynaecologist at Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, said Britain was behind the rest of Europe in terms of frequency of sexual activity.
