Abstract

The relationship between coital rates, a quantitative index of sexuality, and the quality and quantity of reproduction is discussed in terms of sex ratio, delayed fertilization, frequency of intercourse, intercourse distribution within the menstrual cycle, acceleration of ovulation, and the quality of intercourse. Frequency of intercourse affects chances of conception, but its effect on twinning and sex ratio are unclear. Current research on reproduction offers little evidence of the effect of intercourse quality on reproduction in fully fecund individuals; research into the possible effect on reduced fecundity would be desirable.
