Numerous studies have shown that observant Jews, loyal Catholics, and church-going Protestants who avoid extramarital affairs and have traditional values have more and better sex than postmodernist yuppies and swingers.
I would agree. If you honor marriage and family and use sex with love and mutuality as it was meant to be used, things work out better.
I notice that this writer does not recommend pornography, and I agree. That would only make matters worse: more unnatural, dehumanized, self-centered, and mechanical.

(Marcus Tullius)
To: Cicero
The husband must fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 1 Corinthians 7:3-5

If you don't use anything but natural birth control methods that period of abstinence heightens desire.
And of course the opposite is true, if you've been doing it all since you were 18, your sensibilities are raped and pleasure has to be scouted out, and besides being pathetic, it's dreary.
