Hangzhou: When it comes sex, the Chinese are among those in the world who are dissatisfied with their current state of their sex lives.
The 2005 Global Sex Survey was conducted by Durex, a leading condom company.
Only 22 per cent of Chinese surveyed said they are satisfied with their sex life. On a global scale, 44 per cent of all adults claim to be happy with it, China Daily reported.
The annual survey covered more than 317,000 people from 41 countries. The company claims it is the world's largest survey on sexual attitudes and behaviour
This is the fourth year that this survey has been carried out by Durex.
All the respondents filled out the questionnaires on their own initiative instead of being chosen randomly on their website.
Since 2000, China has been in the survey list. This year, a total of 89,018 Chinese people responded to the survey.
The results on sexual health are not satisfactory.
About 18 per cent of Chinese said that they have suffered one sexually transmitted infection (STI); about 17 per cent said they got pregnant at the age of 18 or even younger; more than 51 per cent of people said they had unprotected sex.
Chinese also had the second lowest number of sexual partners at 3.1 while the global average is nine.
China is the only country in which some respondents stated that formal sex education was not necessary, according to the survey.
