If you watch certain kinds of movies and shows, or read certain kinds of books and articles, it seems like everyone is having a lot more naughty bedroom fun than you are. But are they really?
In a new survey, 25% of American couples say they have sex only one time per month, or less. 24% say it happens occasionally, two to three times a month . . . 26% say regularly, four to five times . . . and 25% say frequently, eight or more times.
71% report being satisfied with their sex lives, with 43% being “extremely satisfied.” Only 14% are “unsatisfied.”
The average couple “does the deed” four times per month for 18.6 minutes each time. That adds up to about 15 HOURS over the course of the year.
Not surprisingly, younger people are more rabbit-like. Gen Z do it 5.3 times per month, followed by Millennials at 5.1 times per month . . . Gen X is at 3.6 times . . . and Boomers at 2.1 times.
There’s also a list of the top “life factors” that people say get in the way of their sex lives, and it’s topped by: Fatigue . . . different sex drives . . . health issues . . . work stress . . . kids . . . household chores . . . and financial stress.
It’s not all sex though. 27% of people said their partner rarely or never surprises them with a nice gesture . . . and 54% said they wish their partner would surprise them more.
