But those setbacks a the crippling of the $1.5 billion Hubble Observatory because of Mirror imperfections and the temporary grounding of the space shuttles from Hydrogen fuel leaks a have not dimmed the Agency a enthusiasm for Magellan.

Up a couples in violent relationships have sex More often than other couples according to a study that also found spouses with common interests and several children Are the most sexually Active. Next to youth shared interests were the greatest indicator of sexual frequency in a marriage according to a University of Lorida study released monday. A whether its something As simple As taking walks together or enjoying the same hobbies sharing activities outside the bedroom is a big predictor of How often married couples have sex Quot said Denise Donnelly a sociologist who Analysed data from a nationwide Survey of 5,292 married couples unlike other studies Donnelly a research found that partners in violent marriages had sexual relations More often than other couples. A people in these marriages May have Intercourse More because of a honeymoon period that follows each outbreak of violence a she said. A these couples May not Only fight with a passion but make up with a passion As another explanation might be that people who Are physically expressive in showing their anger might be physically expressive in other areas of their lives including their sexual relationships she said. Income education race and place of residence had no bearing on How often a couple had sex Donnelly found. But Contrail to other studies she found that couples with More children led the most Active love lives. A other researchers have thought that the More children present the fewer the uninterrupted opportunities for Intercourse Quot she said. A in reality the More one has Intercourse the greater the Odds of conceiving a child and the More children one ultimately not surprisingly husbands and wives with school age children said they had sex More often than did those with younger children Donnelly said. A that is because preschoolers need More care and tend to intrude More Quot she said. A your 13-year-old probably pop his head in the bedroom door and say a what Are you Guys doing a but your 5-year-old very Well might. Donnelly found that marital ardor declines As couples age both for biological reasons and because society does no to expect senior citizens to have Active sex lives. A one reason for the decline May be that society frowns on grandma and grandpa having sex a she said. A while Young people Are encouraged to have Active sex lives we tend to think of older people As being married couples in their 60s and 70s have sexual relations on the average of three times a month compared to the National average of 6vz times a month she said. Donnelly also found that people who lived together before marriage had More Active sex lives than couples who did not. A since these people Are More individualistic and less prone to follow society a expectations they May also be less Likely to have a Normal Levels of coital frequency a she said. The frequency of Intercourse declines the longer a couple is married probably because the partners become increasingly familiar and in some cases bored with each other Donnelly said. Other studies have shown that men tend to under report sex in their marriages while women tend to Over report it she said. A this pattern reflects the influence of traditional roles a she said. A since men often Are the ones to seek sex and women Are the ones to shy away from it. Nten lond to think they get sex a lot less a while women think they get it a lot More a than they actually do
