Rev. Andrew Greenley released a book in 1994 that also supported the theory that religion can boost your sex life. His findings looked specifically at Catholics (which I guess makes sense, considering he’s a priest and all) and found that:
- 68% of Catholics have sex at least once a week, vs. 56 percent of non-Catholics.
- 50% of Catholics over 55 have sex once a week, vs. 40 percent of non-Catholics.
- 3 out of 10 Catholics have purchased erotic underwear, vs. 2 out of 10 non-Catholics.
- 64% of Catholic women scored high on a “sexual playfulness” scale, which included activities such as undressing your spouse, showering or bathing with your spouse, swimming nude with your spouse, and experimenting with sexual techniques, vs. 42 percent of non-Catholic women.
