Maybe its just my friends.The internet is corrupting your mind. The internet and social media have been proven to increase perceptions of others' sexual activity levels. For example if you survey kids in high school, they all think their friends are f*****g like crazy, and are embarrassed they are not "keeping up". When if you look at the data, that's true for almost all of them, and very few people are f*****g at all.
Our generation has fewer lifetime sexual partners than our parents. Age of first sexual encounter is stable or increasing not decreasing.
It's just better clickbait to write articles about "hookup culture" (which barely exists) than it is to write about how we're becoming more like Japan every year.
It's all smoke and mirrors that is completely unsupported by the data.
At uni I saw my mates get laid nearly every weekend.
Even where I live now - my house mate slept with 7 women in the last year - I'm of a similar number.
Maybe there are some who never have sex and they skewer the numbers as well.
