It’s not only Italy’s women who are feeling dissatisfied with their sex lives, many Italian men are not too content either. Indeed, two thirds of Italians of both sexes are not happy with what goes on between the sheets in Italy.
Quite a number of Italy’s women, six out ten, would like to consult a doctor in an attempt to find solutions to their bedroom woes, though Italy’s men are not too keen on actually discussing their sexual health with physicians. This, of course, means that the unhappy women who, in the words of the Rolling Stones song, can’t get no satisfaction, won’t get no satisfaction for the foreseeable future. It sounds as if the Latin lovers are somewhat reluctant to admit that they can no longer live up to their reputation. Tough times indeed for Italy, which, incidentally, suffers from one of the lowest birth rates in the world. Out of 224 nations listed on the CIA World Factbook, Italy is in 212th place.
