Sexless Marriage in America Keeps Rising, New Study Reveals
Citat:
A study on relationships in America finds that one in five married people in America (20%) have not had sex in the last month, 12% in the last three months and 6% have not had sex in more than a year.
On average, married Americans reported having sex 1.2 times per week, or just about five times a month.
The Relationships in America survey by the Austin Institute for the Study of Family and Culture interviewed a representative sample of nearly 16,000 Americans between the ages of 18 and 60, asking them about a number of attitudes and activities, including their sexual behavior.
Citat:
Since 1989, the portion of married people under age 60 who declare having sex less than once a month has increased by nearly half a percent each year, which represents an overall increase of 68% in the last 23 years.
Ni kan se att,
- 20% av alla gifta par lever i sex-lösa äktenskap.
- average sex är 1 gång per vecka. Det är själv-rapporterat så den riktiga frekvensen är lägre.
- antalet gifta människor som har sex mindre än 1 gång per månad har ökat med 70% på 23 år.
Sexless marriages are a ‘silent epidemic,’ but it doesn’t have to be that way, U.K. therapist argues
Citat:
This couple are by no means unique. While our culture becomes more sexualized than ever before, we’re less likely actually to be having sex. And we’re certainly not talking about it — even to professionals like myself. I call it the silent epidemic.
After 25 years as a marital therapist, I was not surprised by last week’s findings from the U.K. National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles, which canvassed 15,000 people in the country and found that Britons aged 16 to 44 are having sex on average fewer than five times a month. When they asked the same question 10 years ago, it was just over six times.
Här kan ni se att,
- average frekvensen i UK är sex mindre än 5 gånger per månad = 1 gång per vecka.
- för 10 år sedan var frekvensen 6 gånger per månad.
- så ni kan se att kvinnor har mindre sex idag än tidigare generationer.
