Yes, the latest most comprehensive survey on our nations attitude and practices of sex is here, From the sexual practices of teens as young as 14 to adults and how this have changed since 1994.


Filling 130 pages of a special issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine, the study offers detailed findings on how often Americans have sex, with whom, and how they respond. In all, 5,865 people, ranging in age from 14 to 94, participated in the survey.

The lead researchers, from Indiana University's Center for Sexual Health Promotion, said the study fills a void that has grown since the last comparable endeavor - the National Health and Social Life Survey - was published 16 years ago. Major changes since then include the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, the types of sex education available to young people, the advent of same-sex marriage, and the emergence of the Internet as a tool for social interaction.

To the surprise of many our teens and young adults are more safe conscious about sex that the older generation.


The sex lives of 14-year-olds. An intriguing breakdown of condom usage rates, by age and ethnicity, with teens emerging as more safe-sex-conscious than baby boomer


At the end it shows that while we have "other religious countries looking at America like they are sick, as they themselves have more strict sexual social rules" actually Americans sexual conduct is perfectly normal.:lol
