HOW OFTEN ARE BRITS HAVING SEX? – Poll

Liam Solomon

Did you get lucky last week? It looks like nearly 30% of Brits didn’t, according to new government research.

We’re all about luck here at Bitcoin Casinos, so we wanted to find out how often Brits are getting lucky, and who is the luckiest when it comes to sex.

Analysing You Gov relationship data from last week, we can reveal how often Brits had sex last week, which political party members got the most action, and which age demographic got the luckiest!

You might be disappointed or surprised to learn that the majority of Brits are only have sex once a week, with less than 6% doing it twice in the last week!

Perhaps even more upsetting, almost 30% of sexually active people didn’t get any action last week.

How often did Brits have sex in the last week?

No. of times you’ve had sex in past week
Demographic Once Twice Three None (Active) Not active
Brits (Approx 2,000 surveyed) 9% 6% 3% 29% 32%
Men 10% 6% 3% 34% 25%
Women 10% 5% 4% 29% 35%
18-24 7% 7% 4% 20% 36%
24-49 12% 8% 5% 34% 21%
50-64 8% 6% 2% 32% 34%
65+ 6% 3% 1% 20% 53%

 

YouGov carries out weekly surveys such as this to understand more about British life.

So, around 18% of Brits had sex at least once last week, but nearly 30% of sexually active adults didn’t get any.

We compared men vs women (the only gender splits provided) to find that things were pretty equal amongst the sexes but 10% more women are not currently sexually active in Britain.

We also learned that 24-49-year-olds got the most action last week, with 25% of those surveyed having sex at least once. This group also had the lowest number of non-active members compared to the other age groups.

LABOUR AND REMAIN VOTERS HAD MORE SEX!

No. of times you’ve had sex in past week
Demographic Once Twice Three None (Active) Not active
Conservative Voters 7% 4% 3% 28% 37%
Labour Voters 11% 8% 4% 33% 31%
Lib Dem Voters 9% 8% 2% 31% 33%
Remain Voters 12% 7% 4% 30% 30%
Leave Voters 7% 5% 3%% 31% 35%

 

Those who voted to remain in the Brexit polls had more sex than those who voted to leave the EU – With 23% of Remainers having sex at least once last week vs 15% of Leave voters.

Out of all the political demographic breakdowns provided by YouGov, Labour voters had the MOST sex (23%) whilst those voting Conservative had the LEAST (13%)

So, only 18% of Brits confessed to having sex at least once last week – how do you compare?

A spokesperson for Bitcoin Casinos commented: “It’s quite surprising to see that only 18% of Brits have sex at least once a week. The findings are a stark contrast to the common belief that Brits are more sexually active.

Although it’s difficult to draw a direct correlation between political affiliation and sex lives, the data does provide some interesting insights. Perhaps those who are more liberal and open-minded about social issues, including sex, are more likely to vote ‘remain’, support the Labour Party and get ‘lucky’!”
