Who Da Best At Orgasm?

I can’t get no satisfaction, complained rock legend Mick Jagger back in the Swinging Sixties, in a hit song he co-wrote with Rolling Stones band member Keith Richards. Maybe the pair should have moved to Africa.

According to the Durex Global Sex Survey, South Africans and Nigerians are among the most satisfied people in the world when it comes to sex, or having the most orgasms.

“Two thirds of South Africans claim to orgasm regularly, compared to 48 percent of people globally,” the condom manufacturer said on Tuesday in a statement issued to mark the survey’s release

Among other things, it found Nigeria to be the most sexually satisfied nation (at 67 percent), followed by Mexico (63 percent), India (61 percent) and Poland (54 percent).

The least sexually satisfied people in the world, according to the survey, are the Japanese, with a mere 15 percent of respondents from that country giving their love lives a thumbs up.

“It is the sexed up Greeks who have the most sex, at 164 times a year, with Brazil next (145) , followed by Poland and Russia (both 143).

The Japanese are the least sexually active nation, having sex just 48 times a year,” Durex said.

South Africans also spend more time actually having sex, with sessions lasting an average 20 minutes, compared to the 18 minute world average, the survey found.

“The Nigerians take the longest time over sex, at 24 minutes per session, while Indians have the quickest sex, at 13 minutes.”

However, while South Africans may be having the most orgasms, the survey warns they are failing to set the bedroom alight.

Absurd News: Bare-Breasted Virgins

Portly and beaming in a leopardskin loincloth, King Mswati III of Swaziland basked in the adoration of 50,000 topless virgins who paraded before him, vying to become his new queen.

Legions of half-naked teenage girls danced, twirled and pounded the earth outside the royal kraal on Monday, proclaiming their willingness to become the next bride of the last absolute monarch in sub-Saharan Africa. He already has 12 wives and a fiancee.

This annual Umhlanga, or Reed Dance, is the highlight of Swaziland’s traditional calendar. Every chief in the country of a million people sends a group of teenage virgins to the royal kraal in Ludzidzini. Every year the ceremony expands. Monday’s occasion attracted more than twice as many girls as last year.

Yet in a country where 42.6 per cent of the adult population is infected with HIV or AIDS – the highest rate in the world – critics say Mswati sets a bad example.

Last year, the 37-year-old monarch chose 16-year-old Miss Teen Swaziland, Nothando Dube. His eldest daughter, Princess Sikhanyiso, is 17.

The king will study a video of the festivities before choosing a fiancee. She will become a fully fledged queen when impregnated.

It is good to be the king, huh?

Chile Joins The Sexual Revolution

Chile, long considered to have among the most traditional social mores in South America, is crashing headlong against that reputation with its precocious teenagers. Chile’s youth are living in a period of sexual exploration that, academics and government officials say, is like nothing the country has witnessed before.

The sexual awakening is happening through a booming industry for 18-and-under parties and an explosion of Internet connectivity, especially through Web sites like Fotolog.com, where young people trade suggestive photos of one another and organize weekend parties, some of which have drawn more than 4,000 teenagers. The online networks have emboldened teenagers to express themselves in ways that were never customary in Chile’s conservative society.

Chilean society was shaken last year when a video of a 14-year-old girl eagerly performing oral sex on a teenage boy on a Santiago park bench was discovered on a video-hosting Web site. The episode became a national scandal, stirring finger-pointing at the girl’s school, at the Internet provider – at everyone, it seemed, but the boys who captured the event on a cellphone and distributed the video. The girl’s parents removed her from the school and even tried to change her name.

The parents and grandparents of today’s teenagers fought hard to give them such freedoms and escape the book-burning times of General Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship. But in a country that legalized divorce only in 2004 and still has a strict ban on abortion, the feverish sexual exploration of the younger generation is posing new challenges for parents and educators. Sex education in public schools is badly lagging, and pregnancy among girls younger than 15 is on the rise, according to the Health Ministry.

The parents of most adolescents today never received formal sex education. Chile’s first public school programs were put in place at the end of the 1960s. But after the 1973 military coup, the Pinochet government ordered sex education materials destroyed, and moral conservatism took hold. It was not until 20 years later, in 1993, that a new sex curriculum was finally introduced in the schools.

Even so, by 2005, 47 percent of students said they were receiving sex education only once or twice a year, if at all. And now educators say they are struggling to keep up with an avalanche of sexual information and images on the Internet.
