According to the National Survey of Family Growth, Americans aren’t having as much sex as they once were. In fact, the rate of sexlessness in the country has been steadily increasing for some time.
Every year, the NSFG gathers data on reproductive health, contraception use, pregnancy, infertility, family life, marriage, cohabitation, and sexual behavior from men and women ages 15 to 49. This year, face-to-face interviews were conducted and a new online survey was made available for all participants.
