When
it comes to the bedroom, Americans are fun, fearless and adventurous, according
to new research from the makers of Trojan condoms. New findings released today
as part of the “Trojan Charged Sex Life Survey” found that while two-thirds of
American adults are satisfied with their sex life, one in two (50 percent) feel
their sex life needs a jump-start.
According
to the survey, Americans are having more sex (151 times a year / 2.9 times a
week) compared to 2011 (120 times a year / 2.3 times a week), sexual
satisfaction is on the decline, with 67 percent of Americans claiming to be
satisfied with their sex life in 2012 versus 76 percent in 2011. There's room
for improvement and Americans are looking for ways to charge things up under
the sheets, with nearly 81 percent looking for ways to make their sex life more
exciting.
Fifty-six
percent of Americans say they are sexually adventurous, with Midwesterners
taking the lead in this thrill-seeking endeavor (60 percent). Meanwhile the
South is in need of some satisfaction with 44 percent having faked an orgasm
and 53 percent reporting their sex life needs to be charged, which leads the
nation.
The
makers of Trojan condoms sought to understand the ins and outs of what really
turns Americans on and uncovered that one size does not fit all. Eighty-eight
percent of Americans believe sex needs a little novelty now and then, and they
are looking for ways to keep things fresh.
- Top ranking ways in which Americans charge things up include spontaneous sex (48 percent), using lubricant (40 percent), having sex someplace different (36 percent) and erotic talk (32 percent).
- Seventy-two percent of pleasure-seekers would introduce a vibrator into the bedroom to shake things up and 70 percent are open to trying a new condom designed to enhance orgasmic pleasure.
- Americans think outside of the bedroom – Thirty-two percent of Americans have had sex outdoors, with one in three having hooked up on the beach or at a friend's place and one in four at their in-laws' house.
- Whether it's tweeting, texting or posting, Americans turn to technology when sex is on the mind – twenty-three percent have engaged in “sexting,” 16 percent have sent a naughty photo or video and 22 percent have participated in phone sex.
- Atlanta lives up to its "Hotlanta" status with residents proving to be the most sexually adventurous (71 percent) and exhibiting the highest sex drive.
- Miami residents seem to keep things sizzling with the highest rate of sexual satisfaction (73 percent) and most sex (177 times a year).
- Dallas proves its cowboys know how to saddle up, with residents having the longest sack sessions (39 minutes), yet they are most likely to have faked an orgasm (47 percent).
- Bay Area residents prefer quality versus quantity, having the least amount of sex (120 times a year) and shortest sessions (31 minutes), yet have high rates of satisfaction (65 percent) and are least likely to fake an orgasm (31 percent).
Sex
Life Through Life Stages
- Parents work hard to keep things charged and more likely to have spontaneous sex (54 percent), sex in different places (45 percent) and incorporate a vibrator (34 percent) than couples without children.
- Sexual appetite takes a plunge with age with seniors admitting to having sex 62 times a year (versus 151 times a year for Millennials) and a mere 53 percent claiming to be sexually satisfied (versus 76 percent of Millennials).
- Boomers (32 percent) are the least likely to fake an orgasm compared to Millennials (45 percent), Gen X (45 percent) and Seniors (38 percent).
The
Trojan Charged Sex Life Survey was based on two studies conducted by
StrategyOne. The survey was conducted from May 4 – May 15, 2012. The first, a
national sample of 1,000 10-minute surveys were conducted online among U.S.
Adults. The results are nationally representative based, weighted to U.S.
Census on age, gender, region, ethnicity, income, and education.
