  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.

So, regular sex is down, but what about weird sex?

The weird has been up for more than 4 hours and isn't going to see a doctor about it.

With all the sexlessness, any sex is "weird."

My kink is having my genitals stimulated by another person. Or stimulating theirs. I’m a freak like that.

Based on my extensive research on pornhub, it's skyrocketing.

Some people have normal sex too, and by that I mean they stand upright, perpendicular to the surface of the ground.
