  1. Married adults have markedly more sex than their unmarried peers, but the sex recession is also making inroads among married couples.
  2. When it comes to sexlessness (“no sex in the last year”) among young adults, the biggest change comes post-2010.
  3. Between 2010 and 2019, the average time young adults spent with friends in a given week fell by nearly 50%, from 12.8 hours to just 6.5 hours.

        Cyclists.

        Sexual performances are linked with how muscular your pelvis floor is, and sitting all day in a SUV eating McDonald doesn’t help with that at all. So they cheat on their premature hubby at the first occasion. That’s every right-wingers origin story.

      My guess would be what men and women call “regular sex” is very different. Even if defined by the survey, I’d still think bias applies

      Does the chart include same-sex couples?

      If not, then yeah, that may account for some of the unmarried men statistic.

      I assume that just means for whichever reasons they reported differently. Or the sample had more lesbians than gays.

      Also possible that cultural stigmas curve the data a bit if the survey answerers believe the data to not be completely anonymous. Some may say yes because they want to give the perception that they are in a healthy happy relationship, and others may be saying, we have sex every once in a while, but I don’t think it’s actually once a week.

      It’s all the soldier-wives getting dicked down by cool lefties, while the soldiers are dying in false flag attacks and helicopter crashes.
