Summary
|
There has been little previous discussion of the relationship between sex and work but merely a presumed connection between women working and birth rates. However, these are not individual problems and should, instead, be treated as social problems.
What sort of relationship exists between working hours, work motivation/stress, and sexual activity between spouses and romantic partners? Are there workplaces that are likely to lead to sexless relationships? A self-administered survey was administered to a total of 800 working men and women to uncover the facts of work and sex and to identify the ways in which sex is closely related not only to on-the-job experiences but also the workplace atmosphere.
