The authors study the correlation between sexual activity and parity in 106 pluriparous Sicilian women divided into 3 groups with parity, respectively, of 1 (57 cases), 2 (29 cases), and greater than or equal to 3 (20 cases). Sexual desire, frequency of coitus and orgasm, type of extracoital activity, preferred position during coitus, the partner who took the first initiative in sexual activity, and the contraceptive methods used were studied. The results show that in women of parity greater than or equal to 3 there is a significantly lower frequency of very frequent coitus, higher frequency of extravaginal sexual activity, and that the male more frequently took the first initiative in sexual intercourse.
