The British comedian - who is currently dating Katy Perry, and has been linked to a string of beauties in the past - admitted he initially set out to become good at sex because he's not a sportsman.
When asked if he used sex as a form of self-validation, he said: "Especially, because I'm not good at any sport. It's a pity there's not some forum where you can do it publicly."
He also compared his liaisons with numerous women to a form of "grooming".
'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' star Russell, 34, added: "When Britney Spears was on the MTV Video Music Awards with me, between takes, hair and make-up people would come over.
"We didn't need hair or make-up, it was just like monkeys comforting us, grooming us in a primal way, and I think a lot of my liaisons were just like that, grooming."
Russell, 34, also said he gets jealous of the way women orgasm, but also intimidated by it.
He added: "It's a bit frightening, this transformative quality, an orgasm in women. I imagine that it looks better than the miserable squirt men issue.
"It seems different, though, when there's an emotional element ? transcendent."
