  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.

    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.
