The Lancet on Women And Sex. “They Start Younger And Have More Partners – Not Necessarily Men"

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.



Since the publication of the explosive Kinsey Report, nothing has really changed: Sex is still a taboo subject and overt sexual attributes are kept hidden all over the world, with Isam at the extreme right, covering their women’s entire body except for the eyes, which are necessary to navigate with.

This survey will open the eyes (and prejudices) of many men… Look out below! – Tom Dennen

National sex survey shows how women have caught up with men in the sexual revolution

Women have caught up with men in the sexual revolution – and have even overtaken them in the case of same-sex relationships – but they are still the ones who pay the biggest price in terms of sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancies, the national sex survey has found.

Four times as many women now report same-sex experiences with other women compared to 20 years ago. They are also starting to have sex earlier in the lives and are having more sexual partners over their lifetime than a generation ago, according to the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles, published in The Lancet.

However, one in ten women say that they have been forced to have sex against their will, compared to one in 71 men, and women who have had just one or two sexual partners are up to three times more likely than men with less than two partners to be infected with chlamydia.

  ”We can see that the pace of change has been different for men and for women in the last decades. The gap previously seen between them has been closing,” said Professor Kaye Wellings of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, one of the survey’s lead authors.

“For some aspects of sexual behaviour, for example numbers of partners, it has narrowed, for others, such as age at first sex, it has closed and yet in other respects, such as same-sex experience, women have overtaken men,” Professor Wellings said.

“Whilst same-sex experiences have remained relatively constant among men, it has increased markedly among women. Although a minority of women have reported sex with another woman, that proportion increased from 4 per cent in 1990 to 16 per cent in 2010 and 2012,” she said.
