Couples Having Less Sex than Those a Decade Earlier, Study Finds | American Council on Science and Health
They've got more access to safe-sex and birth-control information – at their fingertips via their smartphone – than any generation in human history.
They've got access to a tech-filled world of dating apps that can produce a prospective partner in as little time as it takes to hail an Uber.
So, naturally, Millennials are having more sex than anyone their age has had in recent years, right? Wrong. Just the opposite.
The researchers wrote "with age and time period controlled, those born in the 1930s had sex the most often whereas those born in the 1990s (and Millennials and iGen) had sex the least often," in their paper titled "Declines in Sexual Activity among American Adults, 1989-2014" that was published today in the Archives of Sexual Behavior.
"Despite their reputation for hooking up," the current, catch-all term for casual sexual encounters, "Millennials and the generation after them (known as iGen or Generation Z) are actually having sex less often than their parents and grandparents did when they were young," said San Diego State University Psychology Professor Jean Twenge, the lead author of the study. "That's partially because fewer iGen'ers and Millennials have steady partners."
In the new paper, based on survey data from the General Social Study collected from participating adults over 18, Americans "who were married or living together had sex 16 fewer times per year in 2010-2014 compared to 2000-2004." According to a university statement the GSS figures amounted to "a nationally representative sample of more than 26,000 American adults asked about their sexual behavior since 1989."
