  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.

      But surely some of the men would also be married to other men and it would cancel out right?

        My lesbian daughter had a crude but funny retort to this, she said “no way, they put it in each others’ butt, nobody can do that all the time.”. Somehow without considering that there are other kinds of sex.

        I can’t quickly find any recent statistics on whether there are more f&f or more m&m marriages, only that there were more married female couples in 2013.

        I did read your original comment to my husband and he laughed out loud!
