Studies on the topic of 5ex seem to be endless these days, with new findings revealing how many times people are having 5ex per month based on age.
I think it’s generally believed the older you get the less action in the bedroom you are having.
But according to the new research, that’s not necessarily the case.
A report done by researchers from Kinsey Institute at Indiana University details how much 5ex each generation is having.
In particular, the study boffins looked at the average number of times people from different generations have 5ex on a monthly basis.
Experts completed the report, ‘The State of Dating: How Gen Z is Redefining 5exuality and Relationships’, in conjunction with the dating app Feeld.
3,310 users on the dating app were included in the study, and it provided some interesting findings about Gen Z.
The study concluded Gen Zers are having less 5ex and fewer relationships than generations that came before.
Lead researcher, Dr Justin Lehmiller, wrote in the report: “Gen Z and Boomers exhibited nearly identical 5exual frequencies, suggesting that both the youngest and oldest adults are having the least 5ex.
“Also, nearly half of Gen Z reported that they were single, compared to only one-fifth of Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers.”
Gen Z said they had 5ex three times in the last month, while both millennials and Gen X got dirty five times in a month.
While Gen Z may be having less 5ex, they are said to be more adventurous than their older generations.
Of the study participants, 55 percent of Gen Zers said they’d discovered a new kink since joining Feeld, compared to 49 percent of Millennials, 39 percent of Gen Xers and 33 percent of Boomers.
The researchers explained: “There are at least two explanations for this.
“One is simply that older adults have had more time to learn and discover what they enjoy about 5ex, so they may have already uncovered their kinks.
“However, the other is that it also appears to be the case that younger adults today have a greater overall interest in kink than older adults, which may create greater openness to exploring and learning about one’s kinks.”
As for preferred relationship types, Gen Zers tended to favor old-fashioned monogamy (23 percent), Millennials and Gen Xers preferred ethical non-monogamy (24 percent and 27 percent respectively), while Boomers favor friends with benefits (27 percent).
