I ask this question, as it appears in the century we live in everyone is having sex numerous times a week and if you're not - then something is apparently wrong / ab-normal - one of the partners is cheating, etc. etc.
But is this really that true? I'm not so sure. I'm wondering whether the people that have a lot of sex are the exact ones that are shouting from the roof tops and everyone else doesn't want to be called 'ab-normal' or that their relationship is doomed.
Thoughts?

How many times a week is 'normal'?

Define 'normal' 
What's normal for some will be different for others.
I find that there's no average times per month/week etc, it's more a case of when the moment happens. Having said that we both work long hours and are usually exhausted and want our bed solely for sleeping
I also think that age comes into it, the younger you are the more often you're 'at it'... at least that's my personal experience. Having said that, when you do, it more than makes up for the lack of it

I agree diammie, and if you believed the media, 'normal' is at LEAST once a day! But having chatted to my friends about this, we all think that statistic is made up by a man, and it seems once or twice a week is much more realistic. (Or less if busy lives lol!)
i am agree with above all. its all depends upon th eage factor. it might twice in a day in initial days. but later on it is once a day / week too.
it depends both of you on how much you enjoy sex.

Interesting thread!
I think it's more on the quality not the quantity personally. Once a week of great sex has to be better than every night of rubbish sex.
That said, if one partner wants it more often then it is a problem.
I wonder what the average actually is for a long term relationship??

what are peoples averages per week? We were used to lots and lots and now once or twice a week max seems to be the norm due to being so busy etc. Quality sex definitely better over quantity
DO you mean when you are in a relationship or just in general??
we've been together for 2 and a half years and it has always been no less than 5 times a week. more if we can.
both very busy but always make time for it.
