A recent survey has revealed that men in South Africa are having far less sex than their counterparts around the world.

SA men have sex on average 52 times a year, company Pharma Dynamics found in its survey. 

This pales in comparison to the global average of 104 times a year.
 
This may be so, but not everyone overseas is getting some – as proved by a recent (very public) exchange between a husband and wife that has got the world talking.
 
What happened is this: while on her way to the airport to leave for a 10-day work trip, a woman received a rather nasty email from her husband. 

He had attached a spreadsheet documenting her excuses to not have sex with him over a period of a month-and-a-half. 
 
She said she tried to get in touch with him, to no avail.
 
Distressed, she posted a note and the spreadsheet on the relationship section of social sharing site, Reddit.

“While in a taxi on the way to the airport, Husband sends a message to my work email which is connected to my phone. He's never done this, we always communicate in person or by text. I open it up, and it's a sarcastic diatribe basically saying he won't miss me for the 10 days I'm gone. Attached is a SPREADSHEET of all the times he has tried to initiate sex since June 1st, with a column for my 'excuses,' using verbatim quotes of why I didn't feel like having sex at that very moment. According to his 'document', we've only had sex 3 times in the last 7 weeks, out of 27 'attempts' on his part.”

Here's the spreadsheet:

 
While some Reddit users sympathised with her, some claimed that she may have pushed him to it after rejecting him 89% of the times he initiated sex.

This woman must be so freaked out by the idea of her husband clicking away on his lap top when she has fallen asleep.
