The report is based on a study whose major findings were published in 1994. The authors assert that the study was the most comprehensive American sex survey since the 1948 Kinsey Report. Although the data have been public for five years, editors of the journal said they published Tuesday's report on the findings because the authors had analyzed them in new ways. One of the paper's authors, Edward Laumann, a University of Chicago sociologist, said, "I think it gives us a base for explaining why we had this enormous response to Viagra." Dr. Laumann and a co-author, Dr. Raymond Rosen, have served as paid consultants to Pfizer, the company that manufactures Viagra. Their association with the company was not mentioned in the medical journal but Dr. Richard Glass, an editor at the journal, said it would be noted in a subsequent issue. The omission was "an oversight," Dr. Glass said. The researchers based their findings on the 1992 National Health and Social Life Survey, a compilation of interviews with 1,749 women and 1,410 men. The participants, ages 18 to 59, were asked if they had experienced sexual dysfunction over several months in the previous year. Sexual dysfunction was defined as a regular lack of interest in or pain during sex or persistent problems achieving lubrication, an erection or orgasm. Lack of interest in sex was the most common problem for women, with about a third saying they regularly did not want sex. Twenty-six percent said they regularly did not have orgasms, and 23 percent said sex was not pleasurable. About a third of men said they had persistent problems with climaxing too early, while 14 percent said they had no interest in sex, and 8 percent said they consistently derived no pleasure from sex. Over all, 43 percent of women and 31 percent of men said they had one or more persistent problems with sex. --,--`-<@ 매일 그대와 아침햇살 받으며 매일 그대와 눈을 뜨고파.. 잠이 들고파..
