Having sex is one of the best ways to recover from the pressures of the office, researchers have found. And women benefit from it even more than men, according to findings published in the Journal of Sex Research. One in five adults confess to regularly feeling stressed about work and numerous studies have found that pressure can crush a healthy sex drive.
Psychologists at Portland State University quizzed 1,100 men and women in full-time employment on how often they had had sex with their partner in the previous month. The findings revealed that, among those reporting high levels of work-related stress, more frequent sex led to better scores for both job and life satisfaction, especially for women. The researchers said: “We would encourage employees to dedicate uninterrupted leisure time to sexual activity to promote stress reduction, well-being, and positive work outcomes.”
