Muslims and Hindus are more likely to abstain from premarital sex.
That's the conclusion of a new study in the American Sociological Review, which also found that Muslims and Hindus -- at least in the developing world -- are more likely than Christians and Jews to refrain from extramarital sex.
"All major world religions discourage sex outside of marriage, but they are not all equally effective in shaping behavior," said Amy Adamczyk of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, who co-authored the study with John Jay doctoral student Brittany E. Hayes.
Drawing on the Demographic and Health Surveys funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development, the study included data from 31 developing nations collected between 2000 and 2008. The authors focused on individuals' responses to questions on religious affiliation, marital status, and sexual behavior outside of marriage.
Adamczyk said the study evolved from another study she was doing that found countries with large Muslim populations have very low rates of HIV and AIDS. "I was trying to figure out why that would be," she said. One reason she considered was lower rates of sex outside of marriage. |

This study was done in "developing nations" and mixes apples with oranges, taking the average across totally disparate nations and disparate socioeconomic groups. What "developing nations" even have large Jewish populations besides Argentina, Russia, and Brazil?
Also, LOL @ Indian NOWIGs. |

Date: October 29th, 2012 2:35 PM Author: multi-colored corner Adamczyk and Hayes found that 94 percent of Jews in the nations they studied reported having premarital sex, compared to 79 percent of Christians, 65 percent of Buddhists, 43 percent of Muslims and 19 percent of Hindus.
As for extramarital sex, 4 percent of Jews reported having sex outside of marriage, compared to 3 percent of Christians. Less than one percent each of Muslims, Hindus and Buddhists reported having extramarital sex.
"In many countries around the world -- but in Muslim countries specifically, there's just much less interaction between the sexes," said Adamczyk. "It's just going to be much less likely that they're going to meet a potentially romantic partner." |

This is actually very true. There used to be measures taken to prevent interaction between the sexes. Keeping men and womens' roles separate, keeping the women sequestered away in the house, having her chaperoned etc. |

In the modern Western world, religion is largely a joke, but I think maybe in developing countries, people still have a *real* fear of God. |

But remember, Islam is evil and there are absolutely no logical reasons to live the way Muslims do whatsoever! |
