A new survey has revealed the average number of sexual partners across different generations, revealing some very interesting results.
Over 2000 people were surveyed by healthcare company euroClinix to delve deeper in our sex lives, and how they’ve changed over the years.
We got down and dirty, digging through the raw data for some interesting conclusions. Here they are:
- Our parents had way fewer sexual partners than us. Not sure if that’s reassuring or still just gross. They total an average 10.7 sexual partners in their lifetime, while Millennials have already surpassed that number.
- Gen Z males are seriously getting busy. Very busy. They’ve already clocked up an average of 7.6 sexual partners before the age of 21.
- Generation X is the most adventurous of all, totally 13.1 sexual partners in their lifetime.
- 25% of people have had sex with two to four people in their lifetime. Don’t worry if your number is slightly higher than this, as 13% admitted to having slept with 10-15 people.
- 14% of all respondents said they’ve only had sex with one person over the course of their life.
- 2% of respondents impressively clocked up a total of 91 sexual partners in their lifetime.
