Religious couples have better sex than non-believers.
Experts claim that those who do not live together before marriage have a better time in bed as they have lower expectations. Spiritual couples also had more meaningful romps as they see each other less but casual intimacy with multiple partners lowers sexual satisfaction over time.
Researchers at Exeter University used data from 15,000 men and women aged between 18 and 59 from the third British Survey of Sexual Attitudes.
Study author Dr. Vegard Skirbekk said: "As religious individuals are less likely to engage in casual sex and more likely to limit sex to a relationship based on love, this can lead to lower expectations of sexual activity outside a formal union."
The findings, which have been published in the Journal of Sex Research, also found that more educated adults have less sex and lower satisfaction compared to those with fewer qualifications.
