ALISON ROBERTS: Size does matter after all when it comes to sexual satisfaction, according to Dr Daniel Amen. Forget those enlargement offers in your e-mail inbox: We're talking about the Big B - the Brain. "In order to have a great sex life, you have to have a great brain," Amen says. Brain greatness, he explains, requires avoiding activities that can literally shrink the brain, including abusing drugs and alcohol. Amen is a clinical psychiatrist and brain-imaging expert who also brings a single guy's interest to the topic.

Malaysian researchers create walnut 'Viagra'.

Kuala Lumpur: Malaysian researchers claim they have created a nutty alternative to Viagra based on walnuts in a pill more healthy than its pharmaceutical counterpart, according to a report on Sunday.

This is one of the highlights of a global survey of more than 40,000 men in 43 countries on their sexual habits. According to the survey unveiled by Men’s Health, the world’s largest men’s lifestyle magazine, South Korean men had sex the most number of times per week: 4.50. This figure was 3.27 for Indian men, although it is better than the world average of 2.08. The magazine has carried the survey findings in a special report “World’s Best Sex Right Here In India” in its November issue. The number of partners for the average man in his lifetime was 4.53 in India — well below the global average of 7.65 and much below the Brazilian score of 11.37. Polish men are most faithful. Sixtythree per cent of them said they had never cheated with another woman. The percentage for India was 48, just below the global average of 50 per cent. Compared to the worldwide average of 59 pe
