  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.

Would love to see evidence related to this. There are conservatives that still care about truth (rare they may feel), and this seems to be reporting a survey they've had fixed for 2 decades?

Is this a historically dishonest group? Did they change something big?

Check out their history of “studies” claiming that married women with children are happier than women without children, or that women are happier with a more protective husband who takes them to church, and their lobbying work to push online age verification for adult content and App Stores.
