The burlesque dancer - who was celibate for a year after her 2006 split from ex-husband goth rocker Marilyn Manson - says people can save their cash during the current tough economic times by getting steamy between the sheets.
She said: "Let's say I'm enjoying myself at the moment. I have suddenly become quite lecherous and it's fun. I absolutely adore good sex. Like anyone, I think about sex a lot and let's face it, in times like these it's one thing you can really enjoy because it doesn't cost a thing!"
Dita - who can famously squeeze her 23-inch waist into a 16-inch corset - likes being single because it makes her feel sexier.
She added to Fabulous magazine: "I think it's true that the more sex you have, the more sexy you become. Plus, the more sex you get, the more you want it. I'm single and for the first time I'm enjoying that."
The 36-year-old model also revealed that since she split from Manson her taste in men has changed dramatically.
She explained: "At the moment, I'm definitely not looking at musicians. I'm attracted to normal, sweet-looking guys in sweaters. I'm finished with the leather trousers and eyeliner types. You can have a rollercoaster ride with a nice guy in a sweater."
