The average number of sexual partners varies by age and gender. In a study conducted by EuroClinix, more than 2,000 people were asked about their numbers of sexual partners.
It found that men and women are equally likely to have 14 or 15 partners, with the ideal number of sexual partners being around seven.
Men have an average of 14 sexual partners
The average number of sexual partners is much higher for men than women. According to a new survey, men have an average of fourteen partners in their lifetime. Women, on the other hand, have an average of seven partners. The findings were based on a survey of over 15,000 people.
Many people lie about their number of partners or forget about it. Round numbers tend to be more common than other numbers, which is why people are more likely to report the number of partners as being “normal.” In general, women and men alike tend to under-report their numbers. However, a higher number of partners does not necessarily mean promiscuity.
While the research did not examine whether men and women had a history of heterosexual relationships, it did identify some trends. For example, men were more likely to report having at least one new partner while living abroad in the five years prior to the interview than women.
Women have an average of 15
There are various statistics regarding the number of sexual partners a woman has in her lifetime. The number of sexual partners is highest in Louisiana, with an average of 15.7 partners. It is lower in Utah, where the average number of sexual partners is 2.6. The study looked at 41 states and interviewed nearly 2,000 people.
The average number of sexual partners also varies depending on age. Younger women tend to have fewer sexual partners, while older men tend to have more. The survey also found that women are more likely to stick with one partner than men. However, women have a tendency to explore their sexuality and often have multiple sexual partners.
Among baby boomers, the average number of sexual partners was 10.7. This is higher than for other age groups. Women in the baby boomer age group have an average of 7.4 sexual partners, while men have an average of 15.3 sexual partners. Those in Generation X, those aged 38-53, have an average of 13.1 partners.
The number of sexual partners depends on how interviews are conducted
The number of sexual partners varies significantly across men and women. Among the US male and female population, most of them report that they have had at least one sexual partner once a week. This proportion is higher among women than among men, and it also increases with age. In contrast, more men than women reported having had at least three sexual partners, while fewer reported having had no sexual encounters at all.
