	44% OF CAREER WOMEN WANT SEX TWICE A DAY
	    'Lucky if they have it twice a week'

NEW YORK(UPI) -- More than 40 percent of the nation's career women
woudl like to make love twice a day but only half of them manage a
sexual encounter once or twice a week, according to a Savvy magazine
study.

Psychologist Srully Blotnick, who conducted the survey, said, "Women
like the idea of starting and finishing the day in a warm and emotional
way.  The reality is that many of them don't have sex that often.  They
say they're lucky of they have it twice a week."

The survey of 1,128 respondents appeared to shatter the myth that
female executives are either too tired or too busy to enjoy sex.

The respondents were asked, "Ideally, how many times a day or week
would you like to have sex?"  Forty-four percent said twice a day, 12
percent said they wanted sex three or four times a day.  Twenty-six
percent said once a day and 18 percent said less than daily.

Blotnick said one in the 18 percent group, "an airline publicist married
to a pilot," surprised him by claiming she was satisfied to have sex
with her spouse only once every six months.

The survey showed 50 percent of the respondents managed to have sex
just once or twice a week.  The survey showed 18 percent made love
three or more times a week and 30 percent just two or three times a
month.

The survey also found that 67 percent of the female executives
fantasize about sex -- compared to only 19 percent who said they
fantasized 20 years ago.

The report also showed that the more successful a woman is, the more
likely she is to hug and kiss her partner in public.  Women who bring
in more than $75,000 a year are twice as likely to show a public
display of affection, the survey showed.

Savvy's "Sex and Success" survey of executive professional and
entrepreneurial women ranging in age from 25 to 45, with a median
income of $39,000, will be published in the October issue.

Other highlights of the survey:

*  It is more acceptable today than 10 years ago to meet sexual
partners at work.  Fifty-five percent said they have made love with a
co-worker.  More than 70 percent of such sexual forays were with men on
the woman's corporate level, 26 percent with men from levels above
them, and 3 percent with subordinates.

*  Relationships that start at work last three times longer than those
that start with men met at health clubs [is *that* what health clubs
are for?!? ed.] or singles' bars.

*  A woman who is totally involved in her career is not more likely to
have an extramarital affair, but if she does, the fling is brief.
Thirty-percent of those sampled said they had at least one extramarital
affair, compared with 46 percent of corporate men who said they did.

*  Ninety-six percent said they are either good in bed or excellent in
bed, with 55 percent claiming they made love better than the men with
whom they slept.  More than 76 percent said they were more intelligent
than the men they met.
